I love this jacket. I bought it for it's cool look and durability. I plan to keep it in good condition and wear it for casual use in the winter when outside, going to work, etc. I bought it because it looks good and because I hate when my clothes wear out - I like quality things that last forever, and this fits the bill.

Pros:
- affordable, rugged, very well built, warm
- whole jacket is 1000-denier nylon except lining materials. This makes it very durable and long lasting - I think it looks very sharp too
- People said it's stiff but I was surprised how flexible the nylon is. It's not as stiff as a nylon holster, snake chaps, brush guards, etc. I can still see it getting scuffed up and wearing out over time if you aren't careful with it. But i'm rough with my clothes (I'm kind of clumsy and scuff up against walls sometimes, and the like)
- Pretty comfortable when you're not sitting down, and even then it's not bad
-  I love the close-fitting cuffs which retract into the jacket and are hidden / protected under the nylon sleeve. That will keep the cuffs from getting soiled, wet, or torn on things. Also looks nicer t his way. Seems well designed
- The zipper is very heavy, and well built. It also doesn't catch, king, bind, etc. good zipper
- Nice big front pockets - I can conceal a small semi-auto pistol (eg ppks or lcp) in them easy. The front pockets are completely nylon, so they should last. The inner pockets are nice size also - one has velcro, the other has a zipper.
- Very flexible. There are pockets of extra material folded behind the shoulders which expand out when needed (when arms are extended).
- the jacket is not overly hot. It has a couple holes on each side near the arm-pits, not sure how much that would help though. It reminds me of a wool sweater, except that it also has better wind blocking abilities. But I could definitely wear it in a cold house (eg 65 - 68 degrees) without sweating. However it gets hotter when working - I was working in the garage with it (it was in the 40's) and I started getting sweaty and had to remove it.

Cons:
- the front top pockets could be a little bigger for my tastes (taller and maybe with side zipper pockets)
- would like zipper pockets on the front lower pockets, to hide things or keep them from falling out
- while the inside hidden pockets are nice, and are nylon, they don't have a nylon backing -- they are sewn into the lining material and could wear out if carrying abrasive or heavy items in there, over time
- when sitting the zipper does ride up against the bottom of my neck, but i don't care too much. I just unzip it a few inches and angle the top of the right zipper away a bit so that it can ride outside my chin rather than pointing into my neck. It's really not a big deal, just a little nuisance.
- while the jacket doesn't feel too big, it will look a little bigger and bulkier than your average jacket, and might look silly if you're wearing it in the late fall or early spring. I plan to only wear this in the winter time when outside (in the 30's or colder)

Overall i'm very impressed with this jacket and I'm tempted to buy the matching coveralls, even though I really don't have a use for them. It's just a nice thing to own (if you knew they'd quit making it, you'd definitely want to buy one before that happened)
