Fit is slightly baggy. Material is a little ridged. I am hoping it soften over time as it’s a little obnoxious with the baggier fit. It does seem durable and will last. The side zip vents help dump moisture and the jacket does not wet out. Overall quite happy with the quality for the price.

Uncomfortable With Pack

Overall I thought i would like the extended zippers but they're really uncomfortable when wearing a pack. Otherwise the jacket is fine.

Arms Too Long

I bought this, tried it on after trying on similar OR jackets at REI. The body of the jacket fits perfect (5’6” 190lbs - muscular build), but the arms are HUGE. I’ve got a large wingspan and even with longer arms for my height, the jacket sleeves reach my second knuckle on my middle finger. The arm diameter/circumference is also too large. The sleeves make it look like I am wearing MC Hammer pants on my arms. Returning and hoping one of their other items will fit better. I have two other OR products, an insulated hoodie and a light windbreaker I use for dog walks in the summer and both have way better fits than this

Better Than Most Light Rain Jackets

OR’s ascentshell fabric is NOT as robust in its weatherproofing as Goretex but is more breathable. This is a great jacket for off and on rain or short stints in hard rain. A practical jacket for the majority of us and MUCH better than the coated PVC nylon jackets. Goretex is king BUT the breathability of ascentshell is a worthy trade off.

Great Except The Hood

I live in the PNW and got this jacket in the early fall and have certainly used it in the wet rainy fall and winter. Pros: waterproof, I stay mostly dry (see cons below), fit and windproof. It keeps the wind out and it is easy to layer and the venting is awesome. The tall front goes up and covers part of my face to keep the wind out is also a great feature. All great things for a high quality shell like this one. Cons: the hood- it is deep so much so that the hood almost covers my eyes and the elastic band to adjust the fit only makes it tighter and there is not a way to reduce the depth so that is annoying. Second, the bill of the hood points down not out. So that adds to covering my sight, but now when I am all zipped up, the bill drips water into the tall neck getting inside the coat wet, and you wet. I had a cheap shell that had a fantastic hood with adjustable depth and a great bill. The Foray is a high quality well designed waterproof jacket with a terrible hood. If they fix the bill and put a better adjustment for depth on the hood this would be way better.
