In reply to UKC/UKH Gear:
I've got an old iteration of what I think is an Ascensionist jacket and think it's great - other than a poor hood design which channels water down behind the zip in prolonged rain, meaning an increasingly wet torso. Were there any signs of this in the review model?
(Mine also has a somewhat boxy shape, but that's more tolerable in a waterproof jacket than actively, if gradually, making the wearer wet, I think)
