Grundens Men's Neptune Rain Jacket

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a good solid and basic rain jacket. I'm in construction and I think this will hold up well

Stayed totally dry and windless. Great jacket for the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] just returned from a fly in fishing trip to Lac Seul, Ontario, Canada. Could not be more happy with the performance of my Grunden Bibs and jacket. We had chilly rain and wind mixed with nice. The jacket and bibs were very comfy, kept me warm and dry and able to catch some monsters and it sorry about staying dry and warm! They are awesome!

Really good rain gear! Would have been better re enforced on the areas that creases (hoodie).....starts peeling after some months ....delaminates .

Been looking for a truly waterproof layer for years. Finally one with accurate sizes and a waterproof material, not a spray-on coating. I dare you to make some in dark navy with reflectors & market it to first responders and search & rescue.

Grundens used to make quality products, not any more. Cheap materials and zipper broke on pocket second time I wore it.

For my first fishing trip to Alaska, I was told that my Gortex coat wouldn't cut it in the rain, so I bought this Neptune jacket. I was never so glad for a purchase in my life! This jacket stood up to relentless and driving rain out on a fishing boat for days on end. It blocked a fierce wind that accompanied that rain. Using it as my top layer, I stayed warm and dry underneath. I had already purchased the Neptune bib and combining the two made my trip so much more comfortable than had I stuck with my original gear. This jacket is tough and took a lot of abuse during this trip and still retained it's brand new look. Not only would I recommend this jacket to everyone, I would certainly buy another one if anything happened to this one.

Short answer is I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a comfortable, durable, and truly waterproof jacket. I bought this jacket specifically to work outdoors in the rainy Pacific Northwest winter. I wore it for three weeks in miserable weather, all while doing some heavy manual labor (carrying trees around a Christmas tree lot). Stayed perfectly dry and warm. So here's a longer answer... I was tired of buying "techy", breathable rain jackets...just to have them die of dry rot and/or get wet after a day in the rain. So in my search for something that will better withstand time and the elements, I found this jacket. This thing held up to some abuse while working in it. I did notice a small hole above the button fly, but patched up easy with some rubber cement. I ended up buying the XS (I'm male, 5'2", and 130lb) and found it fit well. It's a slightly boxier fit which is nice for mobility, ventilation, and layering...but not too long in the body (something I always struggle with). Got the orange color for some style points and good visibility for dark, rainy nights!
