“Not worth what it costs”

“I like the idea of this jacket. I like the color and the fit as well. I found the athletic cut of the Medium to be really flattering to my physique. That said, there are a few unforgivable things about this jacket that forced me to decide that it wasn't worth the money, and send it back. First, it has no drawcord hem at the waist. For a jacket that is supposed to block wind, this feature would be idea. Second, the LONG pit zips have no wind flap behind them. If you lift your arm up, wind blows right through the zipped or unzipped zipper and chills you. Also, without a flap behind the pit zip you have to be careful or it will snag on the layer underneath it. Third, the thumb holes in the cuffs are stupid. I realize they were trying to make a cool feature, but a cuff with a velcro adjustment would have been perfect for this jacket. Fourth, the material is not at all durable. It is paper thin, and every time it touches something you will be afraid that it's going to rip. The zippers, while being YKK, are very hard to start and prone to sticking. So, my main problems with this jacket were based on the fact that it provides several entry points for cold wind, while purporting to be a windproof jacket. I just don't feel like it is worth the money. If it were a sub-100 dollar jacket, maybe.”
