Fit: 5'-10" 160 lbs. I got a small and it fits well, not a race fit, but not overly bulky, I'd not want it any larger for sure, it's the largest I'd still wear without buying down a size.
Temps: I've mostly worn it for up to 3.5 hours for Zone1-3 steady state riding so I stay warm when riding. Personally I hate the cold and I'm usually the first person to start shivering. I've worn it from 27F to 44F. It runs warm.
In the colder temps, I wear a 250 weight Merino baselayer under it and a Castelli winter vest over it. Use the zippers to regulate temps.
In the warmer temps, I wear a 150 weight Merino baselayer under, same vest over. It's definitely on the warm side in the mid-40s. Below 30�, I've only ridden for 2 hours at most and only my hands and feet were starting to get cold.
Rain: IDK, I have a Shakedry jacket so I use that if it gets wet enough.
Other: It could stand to breath a little better, maybe a strip of some other fabric on the back of the arms or the pits. Wearing Merino under it helps. The back pocket and surrounding area seem overbuilt, I don't use them since I wear a vest.
I have no problem with it but a couple of observations. My 3-mile ride to work this morning was at 24 degrees. I wore this jacket over what I consider to be a light thermal jersey. Half way through I had to unzip the jacket. I think in the 20s you could get away with this jacket over a t-shirt or base layer. Second observation, I ordered the x-large after reading several reviews here and elsewhere that it runs small. That may be true if you're layering heavily, and I don't mind winter gear fitting a little loose. However, a large would have done me just fine at 6' and 195 pounds. The XL drips off even over the thermal jersey. I could see using this in Canada over several layers at which point I would size up. But as a single layer of over a t-shirt don't size up.
It's well made, very warm, and breathes well, but I'll be saving it for layering in the teens and over a t-shirt in the 20s. No way I'll have this anywhere near me with temps above freezing. On sale it's a good deal.
I am about 6' 1', 215. I wear an X-large in long or short sleeve t shirts and they fit me comfortably.
Since I will be wearing this jacket over at least one layer. I tried the jacket with a base layer and the fit was too tight for me to move around comfortably. Unfortunately, they did not have an XX-large in this jacket, so I had to return the item.
The jacket felt comfortable and was in a color suitable for road and trail riding.
warm enough for me but i only ride in
the mid to high 40s at the coldest but still just right for 50s without being too hot and it's windproof. i wish there was a small chest pocket to store tissues for runny noses while riding in the cold.
Light weight jacket that keeps you toasty warm.
Good value. Lightweight jacket. Pretty comfortable. Not very breathable. I still get a bit chilly even in California. Very bright yellow (a good thing) It's just okay.
Wonderful jacket for the cool wet winter months. Great price on sale, too.
I love this jacket! I commute daily in sub-40 degree weather and this jacket keeps me very warm.
This is a very warm and very visible jacket. With the right base layers, I've worn this down to 21F and was warm and insulated from the wind. The only complaint I have is that the rear pocket opens too high to be easily accessible. A side entry zipper would be nice or, at least one zippered front pocket would make this a perfect winter jacket.
Very warm jacket
