Review on Amazon Essentials Water Resistant Softshell Jacket by Chris Reddick

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice and comfortable to wear

not too warm. coped well with the cool weather in New York in March. coped with the rain as expected. I really liked the zippered pockets, especially the ones on the left chest, great for my smartphone, and the side pockets are DEEP, like they would fit deep into my Contigo coffee mug. However, the docking stars. HOLY STATIC BATMAN. The amount of static electricity is literally painful. I recommend removing all electronics before removing your jacket. Every time I took off my jacket, I was shocked several times. ESD is no joke. There are those half seconds where you feel like your clothes are pulling with the jacket due to the static build up and then popping. Pop-Pop-Pop I bet if I turn off the light and do that we'd see sparks. I wear no extra fabric and a 100% cotton shirt. Jeans. Aside from getting electrocuted every time you take your jacket off, that's great.

Pros
  • Comfortable to wear
Cons
  • old
