It hasn't let me down yet. So if there is anyone out there that price is the most important consideration - you might consider this jacket.

That being said I would like to have a better jacket. I've been looking at Simms and LL Bean. The LL Bean emerger looks like a good value to me.

Nothing wrong with saving a little money. I know I can always find some other neccessity to buy
