As everyone else says it is far from bombproof, it will snag and tear so you need to be careful and wear a shell over it if you are bushwhacking around.

The jacket now has several small tears - I never even hiked in it. Also, the zipper used is about as cheap as it gets."

Sadly my jacket was stolen a few days before Christmas. So don't be like me and keep a good eye on it wherever you go."
