Pros & Cons
Cons
After just over a months use the zip broke. The zip was used for over a month before it broke.
Highlights
Quality
Over all the quality and the way the jacket hangs was great for me and for the price of the jacket i would purchase again
Great quality jacket for a very reasonable price
Yes zip has broken seams to be a quality issue on this item
Before making my order i read the reviews about this item and everyone was disappointed with the zip
Price
Having said which however the price more than justifies this and the design is good and well put together
Packaging/appearance
Only a 4 star because it arrived with a tear in the pocket lining
Competitiveness
Zipper not the worst in the world

Compared to a regatta that i bought for not much more the fortress isnt getting much use but if it was my only jacket is is good enough

Manufacturer clearly had to make some compromises to hit the price point other reviews mention zip which is thus far ok for me my main complaint would be the very plastic feel of pocket lining material

The zip is too flimsy for the jacket for sure so i handle it very gently
