Hi everyone Digital David here today in this video I’m gonna, be unboxing and reviewing to want to men’s rain jackets. They did send me these products to review, but any opinion expressed in this video is strictly my own. That being said, if you’re interested in any of the products that you see here, the links to them will be in my video description below so please go ahead, check them out and do your shopping from there.

You can see the nice retail packaging for the men’s jackets, so we have their logo and branding right here. So it says want to write front and center. Then we can flip it around to to reveal their logo and branding again and we have a nice transparent bag. So we can actually see the jacket, and this jacket also has identical packaging I, really like the design of this bag.

It’s really creative and it’s really cool it’s just not your typical product packaging. Now, let’s go ahead, let’s open them up and look at the package contents here all the package contents: you can see. We got the want to tag on the front and if we flip it over, we have our size on the back. Now, let’s go ahead. Let’s look at the black jacket in more detail at the top of the jacket.

You can see the nice hood that’s fully adjustable, so we have two options to adjust it right here, then we can see the zipper and the buttons that run all the way down the front of the jacket. Then we have your two hand: pockets right here, one on each side that button closed. Then we have your arm right here. You can see the seam in the stitching and we have an adjustable cuff down here that just uses velcro same can be said for the other arm as well.

It’s identical and we have your adjustable cuff right there. We can flip the jacket over, so you can see it from the back. We have the hood and we have a seam that runs down the center of the back of the jacket. Now we can flip it back over and we can unzip it to reveal the inside of the jacket right here. So you can see we have their branding and our size and what’s really important, is they have fully taped seams.

So every seam in this jacket is fully taped to keep you nice and dry and protected from the elements. Now, let’s go ahead. Let’s look at the gray jacket at the top of the jacket you can see. We have a fully adjustable hood on both sides. Then we have a button revealing the zipper with Velcro running all the way down the center of the jacket to reveal two zipped pockets for your hands.

One on each side. Then we can look at the sleeves and see where the shoulder and the arm seam meets. So we can see some of the stitching and the seam right there. Then at the bottom you can see you have adjustable cuffs with Velcro. The other side is identical as well. With the same adjustable cuffs. We can flip the jacket over to reveal the hood from the back side.

We can see some of the seams in stitching running along the shoulders and the upper back, and then we can look at the bottom right here and you can see we have some adjustments as well down here now we can flip it back over to unzip the jacket. So again we have a button and velcro to undo to open it up, and then we can just unzip it to reveal their branding again in the size for the jacket right there and you can see.

This jacket also has taped seams and it’s made out of really lightweight material. Now, let’s go ahead, let’s try them on so I currently have on the men’s long black rain jacket. Everything fits great and, as you would expect, it’s very comfortable and lightweight I’m really happy with the length too I really like how everything looks you can see on the front too.

The zipper starts about a quarter of the way up on the jacket. We have nice pockets on the front for our hands. We can check it out from the side and from the back now we can go ahead. We can put the hood on -, so we have the hood on right now and we can see that from the side and how it looks on the back, so everything fits great, really breathable and true to size.

Now, let’s go ahead. Let’s try on the gray jacket, as you can see, everything on the gray jacket fits great. It’s definitely true to size as well. We can look at it from the side. We can check it out from the back here. It is from the other side. Now we can go ahead. We can put our hands in the front pockets very comfortable in a really nice feature, the jackets lightweight and breathable.

Now we can go ahead. We can put the hood on as well, so you can see that from the front from this and from the back now, let’s go ahead, let’s test out the jackets and see how they do in the rain, so we’re in the rain right now with the black jacket on and it’s holding up really nicely. We have a lot of moisture coming down right now, so we can turn to this side.

You can see it and from the back it’s holding up really nicely. As you can see, it’s holding the moisture, it’s wicking the moisture along the top of the jacket and then flushing it right off. So we’ll stand in the rain for another minute, just to see how it holds up long-term, but so far nothing to report back. That’s unusual! Now, let’s go ahead.

Let’s take the jacket off and see if any of our clothes got wet. Sorry, the black jacket off right now and, as you can see, there’s no wet marks or wet spots or anything on the sweatshirt I, specifically wore gray, so you guys would be able to see if there were any wet spots, but it kept us a hundred percent dry. Now, let’s try out the gray jacket now we’re in the rain, with the gray rain jacket on and everything’s holding up just fine.

So you can see the moisture just beating right off the jacket on the sleeves and everywhere else, where it’s making contact. We can check it out from this side, the other side, the back side. It’s keeping me a hundred percent dry and it’s doing a really good job here in the rain. We’ll just stay for another. Second, just to see how everything continues to hold up.

I’m dripping wet, but it’s just staying on the jacket and then it’s running right off. Now, let’s go ahead. Let’s take the jacket off and see if we got wet anywhere so I have the gray jacket off right now and it did a fantastic job. Keeping me dry I’m, a hundred percent dry, there’s no water spots anywhere on my sweatshirt on the front or the back.

It didn’t leak in anywhere and I’m really impressed with this jacket. So overall I’m really happy and pleased with both jackets they’re, definitely true to size and they’re. Actually, a hundred percent waterproof, so I’m really impressed with their quality want to has so many different styles sizes and colors online you’ll be able to find the jacket that fits your needs.

All right so quick follow-up, video for this jacket, so I’ve been skiing for the last over there she’s a shredder and my cousin trav back there shredding as well hate. It’s been raining the whole time here and the jackets held up really nicely. So you can kind of look at that right there. It’s terrible weather here, but it’s held up grape about four hours in the rain, and some snow I want to point out sleeve, actually has a nice cutout for your thumb as well to catch any of that snow.

If you’re gonna use this to board or ski or something like that, so that’s really nice too! It’s a little bit small! So I have a little bit longer arms, probably than this is made for so it’s really tight right there, so I could see it ripping soon, but so far, so good five-hour skiing in the rain in this jacket and I’m still really dry in here. So it’s doing an awesome job guys if you’re interested in this jacket, the link to it will be in my video description below.

Please go ahead and check it out and do your shopping from there. This is definitely just a cheap, ski and snowboard jacket, but so far so good for this five hours on the crystal mountain here in Washington State, it’s held up really nicely, so my gloves are already soaked through I mean we’ve been pounded by the snow here, but it’s still beautiful and really an awesome place to do some skiing. So you can see how dry the hoodie stayed while I was wearing that jacket for five the hoodies way cuz that was exposed.

Hey guys so today, we’re gonna be taking a look at the Amazon essentials, lightweight hooded puffer jacket, which I’m currently wearing, and so in the past couple of trips that I’ve taken out how to blast traveling with the bow back travel sweater, 2 0. We did a video on that pretty recently what we kind of went through all the different features that that’s what our offers. One thing that I noticed is that, if I traveled to areas that are a little bit colder or are more likely to have rain, I did wish that I had something a little bit more robust and during these trips, that’s how a lot of people wearing these type of puffer jackets, even when it seemed to be really cold.

So I was very curious about how well that would hold up, but I noticed that you could find some really great options from Patagonia or North Face, but they tended to be really pricey and since I don’t typically travel to places that are that cold and I was in Florida. So it wouldn’t be something that I’d use regularly. It was curious to see what sort of maybe more lightweight but still versatile options were out there, and so after a little bit of research, I stumbled upon this Amazon essentials jacket here and it had a low price and I’ve had good experience with the Amazon products in the past.

As you’ve seen on the channel, we reviewed the Amazon basics, travel backpack, and that was very impressive for the price, so I figured I’d just go ahead and order and test it out to see how it worked and overall I have to say, I’ve been really impressed with just how warm it is given its light weight and the fact that was so cheap and it’s become one of my new favorite travel items I actually liked it. So much I went ahead and ordered a second one in a different color and one for my wife.

So it’s been a really great experience so far, traveling with this jacket and I’m really excited to share with you guys. So, let’s just go ahead and dive in and take a closer look at the Amazon essentials, lightweight puffer jacket, so starting out with the overall look of the jacket, I’ve, never actually worn, puffer jackets in the past. So this was definitely a new experience for me and overall I have to say I really like how well it seemed to match up with a lot of different outfits.

Currently, the card that I have here is the heathered gray version of the jacket and I feel like, even though it’s heather gray, it has a little bit of a blue kind of tinge to it. It depends on how the light hitting it so sometimes I’ve had a little bit of trouble matching this up with some of my outfits, but overall I like this color. A lot as I mentioned in the intro I did also buy a black version of the jacket. So here you can take a look at how those kind of compare to each other, but both very versatile colors.

The jacket is also offered and blue and paying that’s the color that my wife got so lots of versatility in the different looks that you can get for this and because a low price point, it’s so easy to just buy a few to be able to match with a bunch of different stuff. One thing: I noticed right off the bat once I got the jacket is, it doesn’t seem quite as puffy as other puffer jackets that I’ve seen in the past. So that’s definitely to be expected because of the low price point is definitely not gonna, be as robust as a real down jacket from something like Patagonia.

So, as you can see just a little bit more on the flatter side, with the puffs but still comfortable to wear overall I like that, it’s a very slim, fitting jacket. One thing that I did note is that first I ordered the medium, which is the size that I typically wear. That’s the size that I ordered for the boback’s travel jacket, but I did end up returning it and going with the small I feel like they’ve, run just a little bit big, especially if you’re like me and you, like kind of a tighter fit a slimmer look, you may want to size down just one size, but if not the medium didn’t look terrible on me, it was just a little bit looser fitting than I, typically liked for this type of jacket.

I’m 511, as you can see in the footage here, the jacket fits me pretty. Well, it’s not overly long. It’s a nice length the length of the sleeves it’s pretty good. They were ever so slightly short on me when I stretch my arms out, but for the most part, I didn’t notice any issues and even though I would say it’s not necessarily the stylish item of clothing when you’re traveling and you just need something practical and useful I’ve definitely enjoyed using this with jeans or with teen O’s and overall I have to say the look has been pretty nice.

One thing to note here is this: is the hooded version of the jacket they sell it without the hood and the hood on this version is not removable in any way, so you kind of just have to let it hang back when you don’t want to wear it, but I really wanted the version with the hood as I like how big this is. This really covers my face completely. So if I’m traveling somewhere, where it may be raining or there’s a lot of wind I like how high the zipper comes up, it covers my face, a good amount and it completely covers my ears.

It’s like a little helmet, so I really like this style of hood. This seems to be very common across different types of down and puffer jackets, that I’ve seen so very comfortable, but if you don’t think that you’re gonna be using it or you prefer to wear something like a beanie, you can buy it without and save just a little bit of money and so jumping into the materials. The outside and inside lining are nylon, which is very lightweight, and it does a pretty good job of offering some water resistance.

I haven’t been caught in a downpour with this jacket, but from what I’ve read on the Amazon reviews, it seems like some people, if they’ve had to wear over for long period in rain. Some water just start to seep through so just something to note, but if you’re just needing something to keep you dry while you find cover this should be more than enough as far as the inner material inside kind of the puffy areas of the jacket it’s just pure polyester, so definitely not any sort of fancy down material.

That’s really gonna help. Keep you warm in like a sub-zero climate, but I felt that it does a really good job. I’ve worn this in 20 to 30-degree weather with nothing, but a t-shirt on and I’m, not very good, with the cold weather as a Floridian and I have been very comfortable wearing this in that weather, without anything, but a t-shirt, so I’ve been very impressed with just how warm this is able to keep me considering how lightweight and thin it feels one thing that I did note, and this is kind of where you start to see the price of the bag and just the Amazon essentials brand.

They do a good job of putting things out at a good price, but you do start to see some of the quality issues come through. So I’ve already started to notice some fraying and some of the stitching around the jacket and so another issue. I notice is that you can kind of see some of the inner polyester lining poking through near the sleeve, and so that doesn’t really look that nice. It’s a little bit messy, but I didn’t really mind too much I, just kind of pull out the extra lining and so far it still hasn’t kind of affected.

How I use the jacket and I didn’t notice this issue on the black jacket that I purchased or on my wife’s pink jacket? So it just seems to be isolated to this one that I have here, but just something to be aware of and again you’re gonna be paying a very low price for this sort of jacket. So there will be some durability issues, but for the most part of you just need something lightweight and something that you’re not gonna, be worried about either damaging or losing while you’re on your trip.

This is gonna, be a nice alternative. Another nice thing about this nylon material in the polyester lining is that think. It also does a good job of keeping wind out. So it’s almost like a nice windbreaker I’ve worn this a lot while riding around on my skateboard or even when I get caught in windy areas. I feel that this keeps the wind from cutting into me much better than something like the bow backs: Travel sweatshirt that I wore or even some of the heavier sweaters that I typically use.

They just seem to let wind in- and this has done a great job of kind of isolating me from that, and keeping me a little bit warmer. One nice thing to see is that the jacket uses YKK zippers all around, and these have worked great, very easy to open and close the jacket they haven’t snagged at all. So this has been really nice to use on the outside. The jacket has two pockets that you can tuck your hands into, and these are actually really deep.

I was impressed with just how deep they went, so they really help keep your hands warm, especially if you don’t have any gloves or anything like that, and then it’s nice that the outside pockets also have the nice YKK zippers here, just to add a little bit security. If you want to put your phone or your wallet in there as you’re going through the airport, you can be confident that they’re not gonna fall out easy because of the depth and the fact that you can zip them up so really like having these zippered pockets on the outside and so opening the jacket up and taking a look at the inside.

You can get a better look at the nylon lining that they have here. There are two pockets on the inside of the jacket on the sides here, and I was impressed with just how deep these are. These are very simple: pockets, no internal organization, pretty thin too so I wouldn’t put anything too heavy in here, but I like how big they are. I can definitely see myself carrying something like an umbrella. You can see that will fit in here easily or if you have a water bottle or something, maybe even like a drone.

You could tuck in here so lots of space and versatility and what you can put in here on the bottom here, there’s a tag containing instructions for how to care for the jacket. So you can machine wash this in cold water, and so the just really great comfort over all the jacket has done. A great job of keeping me warm and dry, and it’s just so lightweight, which seems to be one of the biggest benefits of this style of jacket, is the fact that it weighs very little while still offering a lot of protection, and you can just throw this into your bag.

You can fold it up flat, as I typically like to do. One added bonus is that it does include this stuff pouch here, that you can actually roll the jacket into. So if you prefer to roll it up tight and stick it in this pouch, you can put it in your suitcase or hang it outside of your bag. Maybe even use it like a pillow I personally, don’t like to travel with the jacket rolled up like that as I feel like it gets very bulky and it can take up a lot of space in a bag, so I typically just either.

Wear it or pack it down a little bit flatter, but very easy to just kind of throw in anywhere it’s very comfortable to wear on a flight, much less of a pain to carry around than something like a big peak coat. So it’s just been a great versatile addition to my travel wardrobe. It’s really helped simplify how I travel for colder climates, especially and if you’re, looking for an affordable alternative to some of the great jean jackets that are available from other companies.

I, definitely recommend you check this one out and sort of wrap up. It’s been a really great experience. Traveling with the Amazon essentials, lightweight puffer jacket I’ve been really impressed with how warm it keeps me given how lightweight it is, and the fact that it comes in at such a great price point, and so you can purchase the hooded version of this jacket for about $45. They also sell it without the hood for a little bit, less I think it comes in about 39 40 dollars, but I really like the use of the hood and at that price point.

I think this is a fantastic deal. It may not be a jacket. That’s gonna hold up over your entire life like something from Patagonia or North Face, but if you’re not willing to invest two or three hundred dollars in a really fancy down jacket, and you want to just kind of experiment with something lightweight to just be able to throw in a travel bag. This is definitely a great option to check out. They sell them in tons of different colors.

As we talked about during the videos, so you can buy a bunch, and so, if you don’t like the look of the puffer jacket or you just want something- that’s gonna have a little bit more versatility. I might recommend, checking out the faux bags travel, sweatshirt, 2, 0 I’ve had a great experience traveling with that so far, so many of the features that that comes with I’ve actually been really useful, and so, if you want to see all the features that jacket has to offer, I’ll make sure to include a link in the description below to the video that we did for that.

Another item that might be good to check out if you’re, looking for just versatile travel clothing, that might be good for lightweight packing, would be something like the Oliver’s merino Henley that we took a look at a little while back. That’s also been just a nice, very simple shirt that works well on a variety of climates. It has a nice style and merino clothing is definitely something any experienced. Traveler is gonna recommend.

So if you’re curious to learn more about that, I’ll make sure to include a link to the video we did to that in the description as well, and so it’s been a really great experience. Testing out the Amazon essentials, travel jacket, I’m very excited to kind of continue experimenting with new clothing items, to see how I can better pack for upcoming trips and if you guys would like to see more of these types of videos- and you have any suggestions for things that I might be able to check out.
