Review on Ultimate Performance: Waterproof Men's Cycling Running Jacket | Reflective Windbreaker for all Weather conditions | Lightweight & Windproof | Bike, Golf and Outdoor Raincoat | Packable Design by Daniel Mind

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great jacket, just not for me.

Very high-quality, well-cut jacket. I didn't rate it 5 stars for two reasons. I usually go well with 2X. I ordered this in 3X just to have some room for layering and flexibility. There is no joy. 3X fits me like a small 2X. Appropriate, but hardly. Hunched over in the saddle of a bike, arms outstretched to the handlebars, sleeves over my wrists, and my back makes me look like a plumber. Do you understand what I mean? Another thing is that it is advertised as "lightweight" and "breathable". Actually, that's not all. I was hoping for a jacket that I could make for cooler spring weather without overheating. With a lightweight base layer, this jacket will become your winter riding jacket. I could see that I was comfortable wearing it while riding temps into the low 40's and 30's. It would be too hot for a hard ride on a rainy day with temperatures above 55-60 degrees. Of course temperature ratings are very subjective and I run. pretty hot anyway. All in all a very high quality jacket. Seams are taped and taped, and on the rainy day I rode in it, my upper body stayed warm and dry. Great quality and great jacket, with a few caveats.
