Fantastic
"Everything is good about this jacket. But they can improve the top fabric little bit to make it more waterproof"
Good quality jacket
"I love this jacket so much. kept me warm and comfortable in Tasmania’s cold, strong winds, and rain."
Lost all waterproofing following one wash
"Followed tag directions for "Cold gentle machine wash" as instructed on the product website and tag only to loose all waterproofing. Tried to email customer service for assistance, with no reply for a few weeks. Upon calling customer service I was instructed that the jacket require specialist detergent for cleaning, which the employee acknowledged is not stated on the product tag, website or packaging. Will not be buying from Kathmandu again, no point wasting money on a company who cannot accurately advertise product details and care."
