One of the best parts of reviewing a product is finding a product that actually works as advertised. This jacket is such a product! My husband first tested it by simply wearing it like a regular windbreaker. He wore it on a rainy day and was impressed with the hood cover and pockets, especially the arm pocket which zipped up and kept his smartphone dry. He liked the fit - it fit perfectly and looked very nice, with a nice design and color scheme. He would have loved the jacket just like that, but he was keen to test the properties of cooling, sweating and smell in the New England winter too! hour by ski car. He was thrilled to find that the jacket actually kept him cool! Once the workout started warming him up, a cool feeling began that started in the main body of the jacket and spread to his arms. He was sweating profusely, but the sweat seemed to drip off his jacket. After he finished his training, he hung up his jacket without washing it and waited all night. In the morning he did a sweat smell test - NONE! I checked it and it had no odor like a jacket that has never been used for a hard workout. It's very nice when something delivers what it promises and at the same time looks and feels good. I washed the jacket after the test and it washed very well and still looks great. I think my husband will wear this jacket for many years to come. Good job Mission Athlete!
