I had been shopping around for a lightweight but warm winter jacket that was stylish and more modern than the older more bulky types.  I live in central Texas where the "winter" weather is often colder in the morning and evenings, but may be warm during the day where no jacket is needed at all.  This is great for my all around needs and looks good too.  It is snug but not confining and loose enough to put a sweater on underneath if an additional layer is needed.  It also sheds water very nicely.
It has 2 zippered pockets for the hands or gloves and a zippered pocket at the breast for a cell phone.  There are also 2 large pouch pockets inside for other items if needed.  I compared other brands such as North Face, Marmot and Mountain Hardwear which were all very nice, but quite a bit more pricey. i felt all were comparable in quality. So, it just boiled down to one's individual preference. For my money and needs, I felt I got just the item I needed.
