Could be the best rain jacket on the market. Keeps you dry from the rain outside and dry on the inside as it is very breathable.

can you make a larger than xxl to fit over backpacks?

I love trying hiking gear, particularly ultralight. I've bought a lot of your gear, and several Vertice jackets and pants, and it seems whenever I hike with anyone where I use it, I wind up giving it to them and buying another. Latest giveaway was on the Camino Portugues from Porto to Santiago. Poured rain much of the time, and the two Spaniards (Catalonians) that hiked with us asked about our Vertice pants and jackets, which we were using exclusively. We also had some top-of-the-line Goretex parkas and rainpants since our luggage was being forwarded each day, so we let them try the Vertice. Before that, they were not getting wet from the outside but sweating underneath their "breathable" waterproof jackets. We were faring much better. When we let them use the Vertice, they said they were much drier, and with our Goretex parkas, we were getting wetter underneath our parks. Lately, here in wet Western Washington, I've been wearing my jacket OVER my backpack. Combined with the pants, gaiters, and spraying durable water repellent to the areas of my boots not covered, I seem to be shedding all rain, right down to the uppers of my boots. I can hike for hours in pouring rain with EVERYTHING dry, as long as I don't hike too hard so I perspire underneath, and as long as the trail is good enough to not snag anything. Vertice ARE a bit delicate. I just received an XXL jacket, and can drape it over the pack I normally use. I wonder if you would consider making an XXXL or larger to fit a larger pack? I do have your poncho, but I just don't like it, noisy and doesn't pack small in good weather. If something similar were made with the Vertice material, I would buy it in an instant, and I think other people would too! I have no interest in using it as a groundsheet, so no need to add zippers to the sides...it just needs to be big enough to drape over one of your larger backpacks on this 195 lb 6 ft 2 inch human.

They make it seem so easy

Phenomenal. It’s hard to believe that something can be so light and comfortable yet be able to protect you so well from the rain. It looks pretty darn good too.

veste de pluie Vertice pour hommes

Très bonne veste de pluie, protège efficacement des pluies légères comme très fortes. On se sent protéger de l'humidité extérieur, les ouvertures zippées sous les bras assurent pleinement la bonne bonne ventilation de la transpiration. La matière utlisée est très résistante malgré la légèreté de la veste. La capuche couvre parfaitement et joue très bien son rôle protecteur, laisse une très bonne visibilité, ne pas hésiter à se servir du réglage de tête, et perso je porte une casquette à visière qui améliore l'efficacité. Je recommande cette veste à 100% :)
