This jacket is very lightweight, windproof, water-resistant, and warm! AT 50 degrees F, I wear only a tee shirt underneath and it is very comfortable. The front handwarmer pouch holds gloves and a stocking cap. There is also a very roomy second pouch that holds a 20 oz water bottle, cell phone, keys etc. The hood and waistline have adjustable pull strings to keep out drafts. The fit may be just slightly snug depending on what you wear underneath and the amount of arm motion (golf e.g.) you desire. I'm 5'10", 165 lbs and the large fits fine if I don't wear bulky clothing underneath.

This jacket is great and really is waterproof. I do say order a couple of different sizes to try one. I noticed sizes vary.

I just recieved the coat today. Today we happened to be having downpouring rain. I bought this coat to walk my dog in during the Spring and Fall. I was able to test it on our 45 min walk today and it was raining hard and about 42 degrees. I stayed completely dry underneath and warm with a thick hoodie on under it as well. The cinches on the hood worked well to keep the rain out there as well, even in the wind. So, when I came in I was able to take a towel and dry the coat off completely and it was ready to go again!! I would highly recommend this coat for wind and rain for sure. I will come back to edit on longevity of how the coat holds up. I am very happy with this coat as it will serve the purpose that I bought it for. My dog doesnt want to hear any excuses about rain when it comes to his walks...so we walk rain, snow, sleet, wind, you name it...we trek through it all, just need the right essentials and this will be one of my essentials!

I think this rain parka will work okay, and it seems plenty well-made - but it's going to be a lot warmer out walking/jogging than I was expecting. I give it 5 stars and not 4 because, while I was hoping for lighter weight, that isn't the parka's fault. There's a lining, which I knew there would be, but it's thick flannel that almost seems to have some fill, so it's considerably heavier than my Colombia rain jacket with a thin no-fill liner, and the outer waterproof layer is substantial so I don't think it will breathe much. I anticipate getting pretty warm wearing this while out exercising in the Northwest rain. I want to keep it because I need something out there, but I guess I'll just wear a tank top under it. Also, folks said it was oversized, but I ordered the XL since I wanted it big enough to wear over my hoody sweatshirt (which I clearly don't need with this warm rain parka), and it fits over the sweatshirt but with no room to spare. Granted, I'm 5'6'' 200lbs with most of my weight in my belly, but still... An XL unisex is typically more than adequate to accommodate layers.

I bought this jacket for cool / cold weather motor-cycle riding.
Far better than expected !
We all know that riding apparel is uber expensive.
For cooler weather riding I wear a Levi's sweat shirt, a long sleeve denim jacket.
That isn't enough for cool weather ri\ding... I wear this pull-ove jacket under the denim jacket.

I'm in Maine, its mid- Oct ambient temp is 50*F
Today I rode my bike for nearly 40 miles at 55 MPH = 39* chill factor.
I was very comfortable the entire ride !
