Nice, light jacket, but I have a few comments given the price. There's no drawstring in the hood, so with a stronger gust of wind it falls off your head if you don't zip it up fully to the chin. There's also no loop for hanging it on a hook. Despite these drawbacks, it's a pleasant rain jacket that fulfills its main role.

Salewa Puez Aqua 4 PTX 2,5L Jacket - Black
Windproof and waterproof softshell jacket in Black, made of lightweight and durable polyester and equipped with a Powertex 2.5L membrane. Additionally, the fabric is coated with a DWR coating (Durable Water Repellent), which increases water resistance. The jacket also features taped seams and a waterproof main zipper. The regular fit ensures optimal freedom of movement during activity.
polyester with DWR coating, taped seams, waterproof zipper
The jacket is made of lightweight and durable polyester, 57% of which comes from recycled materials. On the outside, the fabric is coated with a DWR coating (Durable Water Repellent), which makes water run off the surface instead of soaking into the fabric. It also increases resistance to dirt and makes the jacket easier to clean. The jacket also features taped seams, which prevent water and wind from getting in, as well as a waterproof zipper.
Powertex 2.5L membrane
The Powertex 2.5L membrane used in the jacket provides waterproofness at a level of 10000 mm water column/m2 and breathability at a level of 10000 g/m2. Additionally, it wicks moisture to the outside, which increases comfort during activity.
integrated hood, high collar, drawstring
The high collar with integrated hood provides effective protection for the head and neck against rain and wind. The elastic drawstring with cord lock placed at the bottom of the jacket allows for a better fit to the body, reduces flapping, and stabilizes the jacket during movement. The cuffs are adjusted with velcro.
2 pockets
Two hip pockets provide space for carrying handy accessories and are closed with zippers.

DWR (Durable Water Repellency) is a durable waterproofing treatment that increases the surface tension of water and creates a hydrophobic coating on materials. It protects the material from rapid soaking, improves drying, provides stain resistance and increases breathability.
PowerTex is a windproof and waterproof polyurethane membrane with high breathability and high durability. The microporous structure prevents water from penetrating inside the footwear, while allowing moisture to drain efficiently from inside, leaving the foot dry.

Very nice and lightweight jacket, ideal for cycling or for emergency outdoor use. Once packed, it is compact and you hardly feel it, perfect for EDC. It's not gore-tex, but it works well in the rain.
