So having just ordered one of these to try has anyone got one or had any experience with one. The reviews thefy get are great but wondered if they are that good? Says for Rd biking but can't see why it can't be used for mtb also??

I looked into this a while back. There’s a thread on here somewhere. The verdict seems to be: very good but a bit delicate.

I went with an Outdry in the end.

Ace jacket but do jot take it anywhere near foliage. I did and mine job has lots of little leaks

Amazing. But I only wear mine roadying. They warn a rucksack would damage it; any bramble snaggage could rip it

I’ve just sent a Shakedry jacket back, ordered an xl (usually large) and it was so tight you could see my nips

I've just bought one. wore it last night and it seems great. infact I bought 2 but have to return the large one today as went for the medium. I'm using it for roadie and bike packing. I don't wear a ruck sack..

I bought the running version, I like a hood and miletts had 20% off....
Like it so far but as an emergency jacket as it is quite fragile

I noticed an advert for a Mammut jacket which claimed the same properties (could have been Go outdoors)
Worth a look if you need another option

so having ordered two different gore jackets to try they are both way too tight... I assume gore think most riders are stick thin and don't use a gym! Anyhow they are being sent back so now I'm looking a time a poc jacket... Anyone got one and any good as still bloody expensive ta

POC stuff on sports pursuit at the moment, can’t comment on the fit though

Mike, they do size up really small. However the running ones are spot on size wise and have a hood (and are a nice blue not black).

Can u recall the name of said jacket Andy?

This one Mike.

Albeit I got it when they had 20% off and through quidco as well
