General impressions: I have used DriDucks successfully on AT thruhikes where they served both as wind gear in zero-degree weather and as rain gear. Never had a failure.

I turned the jacket into a cagoule by taping a pleated skirt on it using DriDucks fabric scavanged from a poncho. With pleats the skirt does not interfere with leg movement. DriDucks ponchos are so cheap it doesn't hurt to tear them up for scrap. I have used this set of DriDucks subsequently while doing trail work. The jacket has acquired a small tear, repaired with duct tape. No problem.

DriDucks breathes so well that I put it on to keep the mosquitoes and black flies off - even in hot weather.
