I had a buddy at work with this jacket and I asked him about it pretty frequently. I could tell just by looking at it that it was nice, warm and well made.

I was pretty used to just toughing it out in a sweatshirt at this point. Had a couple cold days and decided to pull the trigger. Im 60, 220lbs with pretty broad shoulders, I tried on his large. Shoulders seemed to fit perfectly but it rode a little high at the waist. I normally wear an XL but after reading the other reviews and the size charts I decided on the Large Tall and it fits perfect. I wear it almost every single morning I go to work.

It can be comfortable from the mid 40s to the 70s with just a T-shirt under. I wear this jacket on my motorcycle as well, its sturdy and has a little heft to it so Im confident it would hold up better than all of my other non riding gear.

Two main front pockets, a vertical chest zip on the left side, an inside zip left side, and a horizontal Velcro pocket inside on the right. The materials are all solid and have held up to everything Ive thrown at it. Hood is full coverage and kind of hangs over your face for when it gets wet or extra cold to block the wind.

If I had to say something negative (gun to my head), it would be what any zippered jacket or coat suffers from. The zipper when you are seated. Its the full length of the jacket which sits just below your waist and when you sit it has to go somewhere. I tend to roll the bottom 4 up over itself so the jacket sits nice and flat.
