This jacket has some good points and some bad points.

Good points: the fabric feels tough and substanial. Previous Hyvent jackets I have had just feel like a carrier bag, however this one feels a lot more beefed up and tough. The hood is detachable which is useful to minimise weight when needed. The storm flap over the zip means no water sneaks in, and the pit zips keep you cool when needed.

Bad points: sizing; I'm not sure what north face thing "large" is, but clearly it's not actually large. Make sure you get a size bigger is this jacket. Also the sleeves are very short no matter what size you get so be careful! It is also a very short jacket, you don't have extra space to cover your backside if needed.

Overall I think my score of 3/5 is an accurate reflection of this jacket, its ok, and leaps and bounds above other Hyvent jackets, however its not "brilliant" jacket.
