Product description
Whether in the city or during trekking tours in Scandinavia or the Alps- the Keb Eco-Shell Jacket by Fjällräven certainly protects against capricious weather. Its 3-layer construction is completely waterproof and windproof, and yet permeable enough to prevent moisture from accumulating inside the jacket, even on extensive treks.Thanks to its robust design the material is extremely hard-wearing and abrasion-resistant, which extends its durability. Furthermore, the hood is adjustable and thus, fits over most climbing helmets. Both of the side pockets offer great storage space for important things and can even be accessed while wearing a closed hip belt or a climbing harness. The elastic drawstring in the hem, as well as the individually adjustable hook-and-loop fasteners on the sleeve cuffs provide additional protection against cold wind and moisture. In case it gets too hot inside the jacket during an extensive and demanding tour, the underarm zips will ensure great ventilation.If you are looking for a stylish rain jacket which looks just as at home in the city as it does on trekking tours, you should definitely consider the Keb Eco-Shell Jacket by Fjällräven.

This has got to be one of the best jackets I've ever bought/owned, I've used a lot of Jack Wolfskin clothing over the years thinking that was good quality but this is for sure much better.
Hiking with this for sure is my main use, looking forward to using this in various weathers. The waterproofness is much better than other brands use and claim the 20000HH or more using an eco kind of material, so very happy with this.
It's a great fit, although would have liked an extra 5-10 cm's of material around the bottom of the jacket and cinch in with a draw string. Don't honestly have any dislikes.

Hi Gary,
The Keb series is designed for a slim athletic build. The cut is also a little on the long side.
So would you recommend size small or medium, I'm 5'8" slim athletic build
Could you let us know both your chest and waist measurements?
Hi Gary,
I'd say you'd be best with a size M.
Is this jacket supposed to be a fitted jacket style wise, or is a loose jacket that you’ll be able to put on many layers on underneath? Thanks.
Hello Warren, It's probably best to say that the Keb series is designed for a slim athletic build. If that's you then you'll still be able to add some layers underneath.
Thank you, unfortunately I’m not that build although I can carry off the slimmer jackets without to much uncomfortable feeling. I may try a medium, the large feels too loose. Thanks again for your time to reply.
