Great coat. Used extensively on a tour to ward off have rain and keep away the freezing wind. Not sure if I will use the bum-bag conversion much, but it's not a problem. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because the pocket zip looks a little week. Time may prove me wrong. Two other riders on the tour had the same jacket and have had no problems.
After much last-minute deliberating we finally bought our Storm Trooper jackets - complete with hoods and a perfect fit. We've just returned from a month's road/cycling trip in the South Island. Our jackets went everywhere and provided full protection against wind and rain - best buy ever. Highly recommended - thank you. John & Lyn
Yesterday was the first time it rained and I have a mobility scooter and the hood was great as the cut of the hood was better than all the other makes because of the shape.permitted me to see all around quite clearly without the blinker effect I have experienced with other brands. I have done the Remutaka rail trail on the scooter the Kaitoke end to Cross Creek and so obviously I enjoy getting out and about every day even on a very wet one.
My wife and I purchased a Storm Trooper Jacket (for me) and an Antidote (for her) for cycling a year or so back. We had never really given them a good test up until recently we walked the Milford Track early December and I can clearly say they were tested to the max. It rain 2 out of 3 days on the track the last day 6 hours solid, we can say these jackets got Milford tested, both of us were completely dry under our jackets. I would go as far as saying we were the only ones in our group to not have wet layers under our jackets, so I guess these are Milford waterproof.
Excellent jacket that does exactly what it says. Love the bum bag it folds into and just awesome.
