PRODUCT SUMMARY
By powderjunky

THE GOOD
The Merrell Trust is a solid choice for a lightweight, waterproof jacket. It's stylish, simple and doesn't take up much space in your pack.

THE BAD
Really small zipper pulls cause frustration on colder days. In general, the zippers could work more smoothly. I also feel like improvements could be made to the draw-cord bottom hem and the wrist closures.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
While Merrell isn't usually compared to Arcteryx, I would say this rivals anything from the top brands in this category.
