Info
The Paramo Mens Velez Smock is an ideal jacket designed for mountain use, trek and travel.
Designed with Nikwax Analogy Waterproof and with an additional DWR, the windproof and waterproof shell of the Velez Smock is ideal for keeping you protected in the outdoors.
The technical cut is specifically made to reduce the jacket's volume and weight, for an unrivalled low pack weight and multi tasking layer that works as an outer layer, a midlayer, or even as a baselayer.
This highly directional, lightweight waterproof jacket with twin-zip design is ideal for multi-activity use and many GO Outdoors customers use the item for running, cycling or walking trips.
Fully articulated shoulders and elbows with a cropped front ensure freedom of movement and optimum fit, whilst reflective areas, pockets and a variety of adjustable drawcords ensure the Paramo Velez Smock gives you a personal fit.

If only for the Hood, 19 March 2012
By DL (Middlesbrough)
I bought this jacket for a number of reasons, but mainly it was its reliability in some of the worst weather conditions that swayed my decision (highlighted in previous reviews), and after a stint at the top of Ben Wyvis in some extreme blizzard conditions I can confirm its as good as the reviews say it is. There is however one problem that I found to be evident. That is the hood, this can be very frustrating to fasten on the move or if caught short in the rain/sleet and snow, other than that a very good piece of kit. Definitely worth a look if you want a light, warm and waterproof jacket.

This jacket is very useful as a winter waterproof for colder conditions. For summer it's better for a single skin. It is lined for warmth, but not too much to make it super bulky.
The kangaroo style front pouch is extremely handy! I found it great to put my camera in, or a map, or if your a climber it's great to put the guidebook in there for long multi-pitch climbs.
On top of this it is a really good looking jacket!
The only con I could find is that it must be washed with nik-wax to maintain it's waterproofness, however this is a small inconvenience when the jacket is this good.

It takes a very long time to part me with my money, however buying the Paramo Velez Smock was worth every penny! It's soft & comfortable to wear & virtually silent to move around in. It is incredibly breathable and yup, 100% waterproof!
