I contemplated which jacket I wanted to buy for quite some time. I really thought I wanted the 5.xx Sabre 2.0, but at $250 no way! That being said I was going back and forth between buying this or the Condor Summit Zero. I decided to go with this one. I first bought the XL as almost all of my shirts/jackets, etc. are XL. Well, I was swimming in it and the amount of room in the arms was ridiculous. I can't really lower my rating based on that since all clothing lines tend to be different. So, I got the L and it fits pretty nice. I love having all of the pockets. There are two exterior upper sleeve zip pockets, two high chest exterior zip pockets, a small lower sleeve zip pocket on the left sleeve, and two inner zip pockets just inside the opening on each side more towards the bottom of the jacket. My iPhone 8 Plus fits well in the two arm pockets and is a tight fit in the interior pockets. While I give Rothco credit for being the only jacket I've seen with a stow away hood, it makes the collar horribly inflated and stiff. I rather have it hanging out or just zipped off. That being said I think it is a great option to be able to zip the hood on and off. The velcro patch panels are large and will accommodate any morale patch you desire. The two exterior chest pockets have some separators in them, but I haven't really figured out what they are meant for yet. Each zipper has paracord pulls and the main zipper has two zippers allowing you to unzip from bottom up to access a weapon or whatever else you may need to access at the waist. There are also adjustable drawstrings in the waist to cinch the jacket close. There are also velcro wrist closures that are a little different, but seem ok. Time will tell. The jacket feels pretty warm as I had it over a light shirt today and was outside for a bit in 44 Ohio weather and was comfortable. I have not yet tested the waterproof factor but will gladly update my review when I have. So far I find the jacket comfortable, functional, and it seems well constructed.
