- Waterproof and windproof features are built for wet, windy conditions, so breathability and comfort can still depend on activity level and layering.
- The jacket includes multiple waterproof zippers and sealed seams, which improves protection but can add complexity compared with simpler outerwear.
- Adjustable cuffs, waist, and hood help fine-tune fit, but the jacket’s performance will depend on getting those adjustments set correctly.
