Men's and Women's Visp jacket and pants

My husband and I purchased lightweight Visp rain gear for our upcoming John Muir Trail hike this summer. We wore our new gear outside today for a 2 mile exposed prairie walk today-rainy, 40 degrees, and windy. We were shocked how warm and dry we were, and we only had a thin long sleeved shirt and lightweight pants underneath our new gear. We are both looking forward to saving 10-12 ounces a piece on our big hike this summer. Wonderful product!!

Love this jacket

Arrived faster than expected, weighs basically nothing keeps me dry and fits perfect over my fleece and puffy that are also a size M. Stitching was perfect compared to my old rain jacket from a different brand.

Womens Visp Jacket

I have not had a lot of opportunity to test this jacket yet, but my limited experience with it shows that it is a great piece of gear. I wore it on a short 3.5 mile hike. I started in light/moderate rainfall while I was laboring uphill and it kept me dry and I didn't get wet from inside sweating. I was very warm, but I never felt like I was wetting out from the inside. I did open the pit zips for venting. When the rain stopped, the terrain had leveled out but it was fairly windy at this point, so I kept the jacket on. That is one of the best things about this jacket: I didn't feel like I wanted to take it off. Even when conditions improved and it was warmer, I still felt comfortable wearing it. The fabric is a little "crinkly" but not nearly as bad as another big name rain jacket that I own. The fabric is quite comfortable next to skin.
I was concerned about sizing because I am on the line between sizes, but it fits pretty good. Sleeves are too long for me, but that allows me to cover my hands if I want to. I am 5'3"-ish and 120 lbs and I ordered the small. The jacket fits me while wearing a fleece pullover and a midweight insulated jacket, a big plus because then it will be usable in all four seasons. I love that the length is long enough, which is sometimes difficult to find in womens clothing.
The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because I don't know how it will hold up long-term. The fabric is very light and thin. Also, the cost made it hard to pull the trigger and order it. However, the weight of this thing is amazing, and the performance so far has shown that the cost may be worth it. I don't hesitate to bring the Visp with me on any outing because it packs so light and small. The bonus is that buying this jacket will be supporting a Made in America business. Thanks for another quality product, EE!
