We bought two Anoraks for a recent vacation because we didn't want jackets that would take up a lot of room. I was able to fit both jackets in my small backpack purse and still have room for my camera. The fabric is much better than I expected. Best of all, you can actually fold them back into the nice compact size they come in originally. I was able to easily stuff mine back into the pocket of the jacket, which becomes the "case" for the jacket.

This very packable garment fits easily in a golf bag and has kept me dry many times when I was caught in the rain while playing golf. The best part is that it is so well designed that it is comfotable to continue to play in when the weather is wet or windy.

I bought this because I needed something for when its raining or windy but didn't want a lot of bulk, This works well because you can stuff the whole jacket into the pouch pocket and wear it on your belt with the beltloops. Very convenient and well priced.

Wow...I was SO thrilled to find Turfer products on Amazon...for really cheap!! This jacket is worth more than the $40 list price (let alone $20!)...you will really get your money's worth here. I was fortunate to discover their company about a dozen years ago: we bought our high school sports jackets from them. I STILL have that jacket and wear it Spring, Summer, and Autumn. From chilly post-Winter mornings, to late evenings on the beach, to raking fall leaves, to leaving the gym w/o getting overheated OR a chill... it's THE perfect 3-season jacket. The material is wonderfully thin and not bulky, yet it somehow manages to break the wind, repel the rain, and breathe! The material washes incredibly well, too. My first "Anorak"-style jacket is white and has had everything from orange juice to backyard BBQ sauce spilled on it, not to mention grass stains from outdoor sports...and it keeps on coming clean wash after wash...no bleach...without showing wear! The (optional) teams' name printed on the back STILL looks crisp and the embroidery has yet to fray at all. We got the jacket via UPS less than 48 hours after ordering and I already popped it on to run to the store. And, by the way, their customer service was top-notch when I emailed questioning sizes. (The jackets DO run big: more than enough room to wear a bulky sweater underneath...plus, they're unisex, so girls will want to order a size smaller than usual.) They replied the same afternoon with the facts I needed to make an informed decision. If you enjoy or wear your jacket half as much as I have, you'll get your money's-worth.

I bought this anorak for a recent Ireland trip and it was perfect.I needed something to cover my suede jacket and thought Ireland's often gusty winds would render an umbrella useless.
The material is sturdy, yet light enough to pack into it's own 7" x 8" kangaroo pouch, a definite packing plus.

I'm 6'4" and 300lbs, ordered a XXXL and it fits just the way I like it. Sliped over the t-shirt/sweater I was wearing with room to breathe. Quality of stitching and workmanship overall is quite good. Has a permanently attached hood that would do well to go over a baseball cap to keep it off your eyes. Stuffs backwards into the zippered front pocket fairly easily. Not lined, so don't expect it to keep you warm but it will contribute to warmth by acting as a wind barrier via layering effect. It will be a while before I have the chance to try the rainproofness. Very happy with the purchase.

I LOVE this jacket so much I now own two of them. One I use for ski walking as it has a large, kangaroo pouch front pocket which is perfect to hold my iPod, keys and small wallet, gum and a few other things which I need to take with me plus it has side pockets which I can store my gloves in. Additionally it has a rain hood as we do get occasional showers here in Portland OR. I love the material as it doesn't cling when I sweat like nylon jackets do. The jacket is very easy to wash and it dries quickly. I bought the second jacket for everyday use and I love the ability to self fold it when I don't need to wear it as I can carry it or attach it to my pants belt instead of tying it around my waist. This is the PERFECT lightweight jacket to own and it comes at a PERFECT price. The company delivers it immediately. Folks, this the the only lightweight jacket you'll ever need. BUY THIS ONE!

I ordered two of these, one for me and one for my husband after carefully reading previous reviews. I received the jackets in a timely manner, I believe within one week. The fabric of these turfer jackets is light and airy but extremely sturdy and the stitching is immaculate. I'm a bit obsessed with things that fold up into smaller things and this jacket does it well! I ordered the navy and the texas orange and both colors are true to the screen images provided.

The only issue with these jackets after reading reviews seems to be the difficulty in choosing the correct size. So here's another example to help you out. I'm 5'3" and approx. 160 pounds...I ordered a medium and it fits great. I also ordered a medium for my husband, he's 5'5" and 170 pounds and it fits him good too. Things to consider...chest size and hip size. If you are large or small in these areas consider ordering a size up or size down from your normal shirt size since these areas of the jacket are "fitted". We are average in these areas so we ordered mediums which is the same as our normal T-shirt sizes. Hope this helps someone!

All in all for the price I would definitely order more!

I initially bought one of these anoraks for my son. I was so impressed by the quality, I bought another for my daughter. She was so impressed, we bought one for her boyfriend (both avid hikers), and also for my husband (bicycle rider). These are well made, with great attention to detail, and very nice material. My daughter liked that it was packable (the bf was pleased as well). My son has worn it in windy and drizzly conditions and it held up well. So, as you can see, I would highly recommend these.
I was initially confused regarding the sizes, but found that if you're female, order a size down from your normal size; guys, order your regular size. This would work well for even light to medium layering. Heavier layering, you might adjust accordingly.
Regarding shipping, if you're thinking of ordering more than one, it saves bucks to order multiple items. If I had known how much everyone would like these I could have ordered them in one fell swoop. Plus,these guys are fast with delivery.

This is a great lightweight windbreaker/rain jacket. Very well constructed. I ordered a small and am a size 4-6 and it fits perfect. My husband ordered an xxl and it was true to size as well. They very cleverly fold up into a built in small pouch for packing - great design. We ordered them for our alaskan cruise this summer. These jackets more than met our expectations.
