I was looking for a jacket to keep me warm and dry during the rainy/windy winter months of Oregon. This jacket is perfect and is exactly what I was looking for. I actually saw it at a local store, checked Amazon on my phone quick, and was able to get it here at a much better price. I was able to try the jacket on in a few sizes in store so I have no issues with sizing as other reviewers have mentioned. I bought the size large and I am 6'0 180 lbs and the fit is just right.

+ Beautiful Stylish Jacket
+ Very Soft and Warm Yet Breathable
+ The Rain Beads Right Off! (For now, I will post an update later)
+ Keeps Me Comfortable Down in the 40's Temp Range
+ Nice Collar, Not Oversize
+ Lightweight
+ Plenty of Color Options
+ Great Price for the Quality
+ Dries Quickly
+ Draw Strings on the Bottom Edge to Keep a Snug Fit

_Bottom Line_ Yes I would recommend this to a friend in a second. This jacket looks sharp, is lightweight, soft, comfortable, and repels water like a champ. I just give a quick jerk of my arms before I get into the car/house and the water just flies off. Very little residual water remains in the material and I have been in sideways rain with this jacket. I like knowing if I get caught in the rain I will be warm and will not drench my car seat. I just hang it up and it air dries quickly. I am going to purchase another in the Varsity Grey color. Love it!!
