The large fits true to size. Has a bit of stretch. I like the one rear pocket. Quite visible for road use. Rear got quite dirty on a non fender day in the PNW. Washed to like new condition. Zipper works well, especially compared to an older PI vest. Longevity is a big question but Garneau usually makes good stuff. I got this at closeout pricing so a very good value.
I use this vest on cold mornings over a base layer and a long sleeve jersey. It works great and if it warms up I can take it off and easily store it in my rear pocket of my jersey. The vest was on sale at a reasonable price. I purchased another vest in a different color a few weeks later. I recommend this product.
This Garneau vest is a really great take on one of the best apparel essentials a cyclist can own. This particular vest has very nice features, such as a longer tail, zippered rear pocket, reflective accents and snug arm holes that keep it highly functional and very comfortable. This particular vest is the hi viz color, which adds a nice safety element to the vest as well. No longer interested in team kits with lots of advertising on them, this vest hits the target for a perfect recreational component.

Well-made lightweight vest, easy to roll up for carrying. High visibility color on front and back. One oddity is that it has a left-hand zipper, such as on women's apparel.
I use the vest from fall through spring and sometimes in the summer on cool mornings. I live in CA so the vest is perfect for this area. The size (Large) is true to form. I am 511 175 lbs and will wear clothes underneath and it fits fine. Good zipper and large rear pocket. Very satisfied,
I bought this last Spring for those days when you need a little wind protection but not much insulation. I'm happy with it for that purpose. Love the fit, not loose not tight. Good for light layering. Love the high viz color. It's good to be seen. Paid about $30 for it which is a good price these days. The zipper has held up so far, so I would recommend.
