- KNKeith N.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoPackable jacket
Excellent packable jacket to keep in your bag or in your car in case of windy rainy weather. there is still plenty of space to put other things in it like cellphone and key if needed. Unlike some packable jackets you don't have to fight to zip it up in packed form
DDDRI DUCK1 year agoThank you for your review, Keith. It's great to hear that the River is easy to zip and pack without a fight! We're glad the River has protected you and your valuables from the elements.

Seems comfortable trying it on. Haven't tested it in rain yet, but promising.
- SRSteve R.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoExcellent rain gear!
Excellent rain jacket! Good quality material and my favorite is that I can fold it entirely in it's pocket very easily. This my third time ordering from Dri Duck.

I purchased this coat because it's packable, it could be stored in the truck, and I know it'll stop the rain I need. This is part of my Christmas in July, Merry Christmas to me! I've probably got about 8 dri-duck jackets and vests, and I lost track of the number of shirts I have. I guess it goes without saying I trust these guys! So it arrived and fit perfectly as expected. The beauty of these guys is if it doesn't fit I can do an exchange to get the right size. Yes it's a hassle but at least you can do it with a minimum amount of hassle. Well made and fits perfect. I really like the stowaway hood. That helps keep things in order. And it lays down really well when it is in the storage.
As I said the fit is perfect. Not too large like you get with the colder weather items, which are designed for layering. I was going to a buddy's house for an evening of cigars, whisky, and dinner. We were having thunderstorms so I brought it along hoping to give it a try. I didn't get to try it for the water but I did get to try it for the light summer temperatures. Worked great!
Stitching as per usual is good and I really appreciate the quality of these pieces that these guys make.
The only beef I have with this jacket are the cuffs. The elastic, or the cuff, is just too loose. But the sleeve length is perfect, so that is no issue. The only issue may be with water going up the sleeve if you raise your arms up in the wet. So this is a fantastic coat!
- JBJames B.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoExcellent compact carry rain jacket.
I like it! This will be the replacement for the old Army rain jacket in my pickup. The Army model is great, but bulky and difficult to store. The underseat compartment is difficult to get into and can cause unnecessary wetness while retrieving stuff from it in an unexpected rainstorm. The River jacket looks like it will fit between the back seat headrest and rear window, making it a whole lot easier to get to in emergency conditions. It's strong, light, and fits well. I was skeptical that I needed "ANOTHER RAIN JACKET???" (wife words), but this is a great investment in a quick, fast, and in a hurry problem solver.
