I love this coat,  probably will buy another one in red or black.  I bout the 1X but I probably would have been fine with a regular XL.  Go by the size chart. The anorak is waterproof,  water beads up and rolls off.  The lining is warm and it zips out.  I  threw out my old jacket and wear this alot.  I live in TN where it can be rainy and warm often.  This jacket is awesome,  light weight and comfortable.  Two pockets on either side. Works great when I'm walking the dogs.
