With a classic design this lightweight jacket will always look good and the quality construction means it should last for years. It fully zips up the front and has three zippered pockets--two vertical opening side pockets and one vertical opening on the right chest which is good for a smartphone. It easily held my 6 1/4 inch phone with plenty of room remaining. All zippers have extra-long pulls so they can be located and operated quickly and smoothly and the ones on the pockets are texturized and easy to grip.

The fabric is 97 percent polyester and 3 percent spandex so there is some stretch and give when reaching or bending which should help avoid tearing out an armhole seam. And it is just more comfortable to wear as it conforms to body movement. The jacket also has a loop sewn into the label at the inside neck so it can be hung on a hook.

The feel of the fabric is reminiscent of a nylon windbreaker representing the lightest style of jacket. The pocket fabric is slightly thicker and softer which feels good when hands are stuffed inside. Not a winter garment but good for mild weather--warm days that can turn cool. Machine wash cold with like colors, no bleach, tumble dry low heat and cool iron if needed.

No hood, there is a 2 1/2 inch stand-up collar so the neck is protected from wind and weather. The large-size jacket sleeves are 26 1/2 inches from the top of the shoulder to the one inch cuff. The wrist opening is 11 inches in circumference and the cuff has a hook and loop style adjustment so it can be cinched snuggly if desired. The length of the jacket from the top of the shoulder to the hem is 29 inches with the back length approximately an inch longer for extra coverage.

Large is the size the in-house male wears and this fits him exactly as expected. The navy color is a true dark blue. No loose threads, the jacket is constructed well with uniform top stitching which not only looks good but adds strength to seams. The entire jacket has a quality appearance. Excellent.
