<\/figure>\n\n\n\nAfter getting wet from a leaking 10+ year old jacket on my regular dog walks I decided it was time to upgrade and purchase a new summer waterproof jacket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have a good winter coat, but wanted one for summer, which was waterproof but not too warm to wear in the warmer months something that didn\u2019t make me look like I had taken a shower when I took it off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After some advice I went for the Result 3-Layer Recycled Printable Casual Hooded Softshell R909X in Navy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the jacket arrived, I was impressed with the quality of the item it felt well made, wasn\u2019t too heavy for summer use and thought it would do the job well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The side pockets are huge and can easily fit gloves, phones and anything else you require while out. The chest pocket can easily fit a phone too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fit was great, I went for a large, I could move about easily and had room for a jumper underneath. The length was good too considering I wanted the jacket for wet weather, I personally don\u2019t like short jackets. My only slight gripe would be that as the hood is permanently attached, it does make the back of the collar turn down so doesn\u2019t fully fit to your neck, however this is not a major issue, more a personal preference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first time I wore the jacket was while out walking the dog on the Yorkshire coast. It was quiet a windy day with spitting rain. The jacket performed well. It kept the wind totally out which I wasn\u2019t expecting, it thought I may let some. The rain beaded onto the jacket, and it kept me dry. The pockets were easy to get your hand into and didn\u2019t leak which is always a good point. Overall impressed. A few days later a rainy day the jacket again did its job. This time I used the hood, which was easy to get to as it isn\u2019t packed away it\u2019s there just to pull over your head. It fits well, has enough weight to it so wind doesn\u2019t blow it off, but not too heavy that you can feel it. You can also still hear the world around you, which with some hoods is difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have worn it since in wet and damp environments and continue to enjoy the jacket. During one walk in rain, the weather turns to monsoon conditions with really heavy driving rain. This tested the jacket to its limit, did it pass \u2013 sort of. Overall, the jacket keeps me protected from the elements. However, there was a little leak from the zip over my midriff and the seam on the front also leaked a little. Is this an issue? NO, I didn\u2019t buy the jacket for these conditions, we were caught out, did the jacket fail no, it wasn\u2019t designed for these extremes. I am still happy with the jacket and will hopefully get years of wear from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Summary<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Would I recommend the jacket, yes. For anyone wanting a lightweight jacket that will keep the elements out. Ideal for anyone looking for a jacket to match their corporate image and branding that will stand up to most weathers. Also suitable for clubs or societies for members to travel to events. Overall I would give 4.5 out of 5 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
