If you need something to help keep your bum and thighs dry but don’t like your raincoat to fall too low, the Moss is exactly in the middle (it’s about 2 inches longer than the hip-length Columbia Watertight II and 2 inches shorter than the Hunter). You can tighten the cuffs on the sleeves with snaps these cuffs were better than the Eddie Bauer Girl On The Go’s nonadjustable cuffs at keeping water out and customizing fit, but not as good as the the Columbia Women’s Arcadia coat’s Velcro cuffs, which allowed the most fine-tuning. Testers also loved that the colors of the zippers matched the coats’ colors.
The design allows you to unzip the bottom of the coat for ventilation, and this makes it easier to sit down in longer versions of the coat. Testers said the H2Off’s two-way zipper was among their favorites. The hood is adjustable with a Velcro strap (though testers didn’t need to use this feature), and it’s deep enough for most hairstyles, except high buns, and hair thicknesses. The fully taped seams help to block water, and the top half of the lining is mesh, which makes the coat breathable. The H2Off’s fabric was thicker than that of the Columbia and J.Jill coats we tested, and it felt smoother than the fabric of any of our other women’s picks. This was typical for most of the coats we tested, but it seemed to roll faster from the H2Off than from the J.Jill and Eddie Bauer coats.
In the rain, water rolled right off the H2Off jacket.
