Hand pockets don't help! TNF has a gem when they first unveiled the DIAD, but changes in 2007 have effectively converted pit zips to mini core vents and added hand pockets that increase the weight but not the functional strengths of this jacket. They should have installed full pit zips instead of hand pockets. Big mistake by TNF in my opinion.

Light and durable This jacket is great for weekend hikes. You can barely tell that you have it on. Keeps you dry no matter the weather.

Light with great stitching I used this jacket on a trip through Japan including a trip up into the mountains. The average temperature was about 44 degrees F and had light to medium showers. The jacket itself was extremely lightweight and waterproof. It kept me powder dry with the rain just beading right off. However, it is just a shell, so I did have to throw on some additional layers underneath to stay warm. To wear this jacket with only a long sleeve tshirt, the temp would have to stay above 55 degrees F. The thin stitching/seams on the jacket were great and it was made very well. But, be warned, the jacket is VERY short. I'm not particularly tall, and the bottom end of the shell sits above my hips. If you have a long torso, the shell might fit awkwardly and you might want to look for a parka length instead.
