I bought this jacket because my son needed a rain jacket but I didn't want one of the shiny plastic ones. This is perfect because it has a light padding to the lining so it is perfect for those cool, fall, rainy days. It is well made, good quality. The hood fits well and stays up in the wind! The fit is perfect; I ordered an M (5-6), my son is about to turn 6 yrs old and is slim but average size for his age.
I highly recommend this jacket.
