Its double-sliding, water-resistant TorsoFlo zippers open from hem-to-bicep to allow for poncho-like ventilation when excess body heat needs an escape. This rain jacket also sports a double-separating front zipper with external storm flap for a dry weather tight seal and additional venting, while its deep designed dual-pull adjustable hood and dual drawcord hem adjustments allow for the perfect weather fit. A napoleon pocket, two hand pockets, and a zippered internal chest pocket that doubles as a stuff sack leave you with plenty of storage space.

Reviews - Outdoor Research Men's Foray Jacket

Lightweight and waterproof.
This is my first Outdoor research product. I have always heard good things about them so I figured what the heck. For the price of this sghell it has alot of features found only in higher priced shells. I was very eager to test how waterproof this shell was. Living in Illinois in January means an occasional wet snow or two. I was at a jobsite surveying when it started to snow. I had the Foray shell in my car so I gave it it's first bath. I sat outside for three hours in a heavy wet snow. This jacket performed flawlessly. The paclite Goretex shed water like no other. It was pretty cold out but with a heavy weight fleece underneath, I stayed plenty warm. I cannot comment on the breathibility as of yet but, the full length zippers on the sides of this jacket have me pretty convinced that it will do just fine. Overall, this shell seems like a great buy. The quality of the product prompted me to buy on of their sombrero's as well! I can't wait to try these bad boys out in the Boundary waters this summer!!

Great Rain Jacket
I wear it when needed (raining). I really like the full pit zips for ventilation and the adjustable hood. It is very light weight and well made. You can't go wrong with OR. Altrec is a great place to buy.

Reliable jacket
I bought this rain jacket recently for my job as a landscaper. I needed a rain jacket that could withstand bad weather, mud, thorns, and general abuse. It rained most of last week, and so far there's no evidence of any ripping or loss of waterproofness. Gore-Tex feels light weight yet durable. Also, the pockets are big enough to hold my work gloves and clippers. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase.
