Great for humid climes
I've lived in Kentucky and Alabama while owning this jacket, and it is awesome for those muggy, rainy days that are so common in the South. Know going into it that this isn't a four season shell on its own and you won't be disappointed.

Excellent Shell
Spent 2 very rainy days at the Maine Canoe Symposium this year in my Cohesion Jacket. I stayed dry and comfortable all weekend. Worth the money at retail, a bargain at Altrec's sale price.

Worth $140 as an all-purpose rain jacket
I love the sturdy feel of the material that's thick but not heavy. The stretch panels don't stretch all the much, leaving the chest pocket kinda small. Venting options are great thanks to perfectly placed pit-zips and mesh pockets which double as vents if left open. Adjustments are simple and easy, the hood is good and the cuffs adjust well. An excellent jacket for $140, definatley!

Great rain jacket
Loaded with features (long pit zips, venting pockets, attached hood) this jacket remains a simple effective rain jacket in all conditions. Stretch panels in back add limited benefit, but overall this is a well-made jacket that will keep you dry.

Simple Waterproof Breathable Shell
This is a great shell. It is lightweight, waterproof, and breathable. The cuffs are a simple velcro construnction, which work very well. The inside is smooth, but does not get too sticky like some less breathable jackets. The hood does not get blown in the wind, has a stiff flap, and has a simple single cord tightener. It also has functional pit-zips, a strong zipper flap, one-handed draw-cord hems, and a welded Napolean pocket. Overall, a great waterproof shell.
