Mountain Hardwear Cohesion Jacket - Men's

 Brand : Mountain Hardwear
Item : MHW0376
The Mountain Hardwear Men's Cohesion Jacket is a lightweight, waterproof jacket that keeps you comfortable and dry on winter mountain adventures. Mountain Hardwear pulled out all the stops on this bomber jacket. The Cohesion has waterproof, breathable stretch panels in the high mobility areas to ensure that this jacket follows your every move. On deep powder days, the Cohesion allows the user to block out the elements thanks to the one-handed hem drawcord and the hook and loop laminated cuff tabs—the Conduit won't protect your face when you're getting over-your-head face-shots, but who cares—you shouldn't be complaining about that anyway!

Mountain Hardwear Cohesion Jacket - Men's



Cohesion Jacket
Sweet shell, I can't believe how lightweight and streamlined it is compared to my old Sierra Designs shell. It’s very effective at keeping wind and rain out. The fit is excellent, it’s not too snug nor loose. The stretch panels work great. I'm 5'8", 170lb and I ordered size medium. Just two minor gripes: I wish the chest pocket was a little bigger and the shell is a bit noisy. Overall I'm very happy with its performance so far. Thanks for hassle-free service. The website is informative, good selection, easy to navigate. I will definitely order from you guys again.


Excellent form and function
The look is great, but most importantly it works! I haven’t had a chance to use it in a downpour or for backcountry skiing. Around town it is an excellent piece of gear to tuck somewhere in your bag, and you’ll never again need to bring an umbrella. It is so lightweight that I forgot having carried it around with me. Thank you for such a good service and communication.


Dry as a Bone
My wife and I do a lot of day hiking and she packs The North Face Flight Series & I have the Cohesion just in case the rain rolls in It is very light, and has kept me 100% dry, in moderate downpour It fits really good, I'm 5'7 200 and the Large fits great with regular base layer under. I agree with the other review the jacket is louder than the old corduroy pants I had when I was a kid, so if that bothers you this might not be what your looking for. For what I use it for I give the Cohesion 4 thumbs up, with a snap.


It's going back
I've had the Cohesion for about 8 months now and must say that it is a horrible shell. It does okay in light rain and snow and got me to the top of Mt. Rainier (fortunately we had good weather), but in the Seattle rain it performs poorly. Moderate downpours bring on a clammy feeling inside the jacket, which demonstrates the garment's lack of breathability. The pockets even fail to keep my wallet fully dry. I am now hunting for an alternative.


Excellent Piece
I went through a couple of 'equivalent' lightweight shell/rain gear pieces before I got a great deal on the Cohesion. I've used it in varying conditions from drizzle to sleet to snow and it has functioned quite impressively for such a lightweight garment. I immediately questioned its durability when I felt the material, but it has held up quite well over the last five or six seasons. I have not had to clean or re-waterproof it yet and have since become a believer in the Conduit laminant. This is a nice piece.
