Kavu Blender Jacket (For Men)

nice style. decent functionality. a little bulky in the arms--not for layering. better as a one layer, cold weather option

I'm a medium in every othe royutdoor line. I had to exchange my medium for a small and although it fits better it makes it difficult to layer under.

This is a pretty nice jacket for the price. It's fairly warm, and cut (mostly) to keep out cold and snow. The sleeves have fleece flaps in them that keep snow from falling past your wrists, and the waist and collar have a snug fit to trap heat. The canvas accents are a little stiff, but the jacket is still comfortable. This jacket has very long sleeves and generally has a large fit; it's usually a tossup for me between medium and large (5'10", 170), but this jacket in a medium is a tad big on me. One nitpick I have is that the hand pockets on this jacket are slits all the way through the fleece and lining, and there's only a mesh pocket inside. I prefer pockets that split the outer and inner layers, they seem to do a better job of keeping your hands warm and trapping your body heat.

Very good looking jacket. good craftsmanship, and warm. Problem is a bit bulky and very heavy.

This jacket is great. It is large enough that layers can be worn underneath, yet it is warm enough that layers are rarely needed. Just as warm and as comfortable as the much much more expensive patagonia retro jacket
