3L Element Proof Rain Jacket Caza

If you are looking for a completely rainproof outer shell, the 3L Element is it. I use it for hunting miserably wet western Oregon with layers underneath. All other “rainproof” jackets and pants I had PREVIOUsly invested in eventually left me wet with this exception of 3L ELEMENT. They worked so well for four seasons and we’re still mostly water proof even after tracking a large buck through messes of blackberries raspberries and devils club. The 3L held up pretty well to the constant punctures they encountered but were certainly failing as far as waterproof ability. So, i purchased a new set that I will use in years to come. I love them so much I even purchased a set for my son. Great to use a a rainproof shell and layering other clothes underneath. Also easily packable during dry times. These are an expensive investment but will appreciate them!

I’ve got the 3L top and bottoms, first these are not a super light rain gear to have in hot weather. I just mention that incase that’s what you reading this is looking for, in exchange these will keep you 100% percent dry, untouched from the wind, and comfortable, sitting or stalking. The pants are easy on and off as a shell or are capable of being worn alone, the jacket has armpit vents and a very well sized hood for protection while not being in the way. And my favorite part is the camo pattern absolutly disappears in wet environments, and silent, you can turn into a ghost in the storm.

Wore Pnuma gear on a recent hunt to newfoundland. The weather was mostly very nice but needed rain gear a couple times. Love this stuff ,fits good keeps me warm and dry

I ordered a whole bunch from Pnuma and I'm forever a fan now. Quality and craftsmanship seems to be top notch along with the fit. Love it!

As someone who hunts in all seasons and conditions, I need gear that holds up.

I’ve worn it in everything from light drizzle to full-on downpours, and it’s kept me dry without overheating thanks to solid breathability. The zippers are high quality and haven’t failed after repeated use, and the fit allows for layering underneath without feeling bulky. I appreciate the quiet fabric—no loud crinkling—which makes it great for hunting in close quarters.

One of the standout features is the packability. It compresses down well and fits easily in a pack, making it easy to bring along just in case the weather turns. The hood design is also dialed in—adjustable, stays put in the wind, and doesn’t obstruct peripheral vision.

If you spend long days outside and need reliable rain protection that won’t weigh you down, this jacket earns its spot in the lineup.

The fact I paid almost $300 dollars for this jacket and I see it now and it's $150 for exact same jacket and wonder why I am paying so much for it.
