As a seamstress, I appreciate a well-made product.  This jacket is just that.  Quality fabrics, waterproofed seams, port pocket for customization, the hood attaches with a zipper and snaps under a flap on the collar, lightweight but warm fleece as lining in the body with a touch of fleece on the top of the zipper flap.  The detailing touches, including the two-tone fabric and articulated elbow are very flattering.  The hardware is the same high quality as the fabric and craftsmenship.  Double-pull main zipper, external and internal zippered pockets, Velco on the wrists as well as the rain flap over the main zipper and good quality toggles and bungee in the hood and bottom.  For the money, this is an excellent buy - I certainly couldn't purchase the fabric and hardware for anywhere near this price!

My only warning is that this jacket runs small (at least in the ladies sizes).  I wanted some extra room for layering so ordered a size up from what I normally wear.  No such luck; this puppy is SNUG.  Luckily I was able to let out the side seams slightly, thanks to the port pocket and removed the drawstring at the bottom for enough room that I won't have to return the jacket.  Still won't allow for layering but at least I don't have to be without a jacket for the event I purchased this for.  Oddly, the sleeves are plenty long enough.  I suspect that a mens pattern was widened at the hip slightly and used for the women's pattern.  This would account for the fit challenges.
