Bought this for commuting, but it is simply cut too narrow. It's a great jacket, and I wish it worked, but it really is a size too small.

I use this jacket when commuting to work or just road racing. It's a warm jacket for cold, windy or rainy days. In 40 degree weather I only need a baselayer underneath it. At 6'2" and 180 lbs size L fits me perfectly.

This is a great jacket for cold, windy and rainy days. It's warm, at 40 degree weather I only need a baselayer underneath. It fits me (6'2", 180 lb) perfectly, no poor fit or wrong sizing here! Considering I only paid [$] for it I'am very pleased.

Keeps you warm, sometimes too much
By rhino919 from Oregon on 10/19/2009
Pros:
Breathable
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cyclist
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
It had better be below 50F, or you will probably overheat. I've tried this jacket in the mid 50's and been too hot both times. I was comfortable in the 40's with just a summer weight jersey and the jacket.

Great jacket
By AndyVerified Reviewer from Ithaca, NY on 10/06/2009
Pros:
Durable, Good Pockets and Features, Lightweight
Best Uses:
Bad Weather, Commuting, Light raincoat
Describe Yourself:
Competitive Cyclist
Sizing:
Feels half size too small
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
I always wear medium shirts, so I originally ordered a medium size of this jacket which was slightly too small. The large is slightly too big for me, but with a few layers in the colder months that's fine. The material seems very durable, and stays cleaner than some others I've used. I wear this commuting in a variety of conditions and the full zip is essential and zips easily. It has one side (left) pocket and a card-sized arm pocket, as well as one rear pocket which has a flap but no closure to it. A strip of velcro would help here. The only negative I have about this jacket is the zipper of the arm pocket is rough and scrapes my arm if I'm not wearing long sleeves under the jacket. I plan on finding a fabric patch to adhere over this area to fix this. Otherwise this is a great quality product and worth the price.

I bought this in an XL size for my husband and it fits my tall, trim teenage daughter instead (women's medium). He couldn't even get the zipper sides to reach around to get it zipped.
