Review on Stay Warm And Tactical This Winter With CQR Men'S Military Hunting Jacket - Lightweight, Water-Resistant, And Fleece-Lined by Aaron Cruz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pretty good with a few areas for improvement

Looks good / stylish.not overly tactical.wife likes it Hood is pretty huge, but I was able to use drawcord to adjust it. I would rather have it too big than too small. Can wear it over a bike helmet, etc, so I won't complain too much about that.The two areas that could be better :They are not using YKK zippers and you can tell that the zippers are not that great. For a jacket with so many zippers, the potential for failure is high, so I would have expected YKK zippers. I am guessing they were trying to save money since there are a lot of zippers, but I would have gladly paid $10 more for better zippers.The chest pockets are not well designed. I absolutely had to have chest pockets and while this does have two, they don't seem to work as well as any of my other jackets. The first issue is that the size of the opening is kind of small. My thin XL hand can't really get inside the pocket. My S7 will make it in there, but not too much room to spare, Since the opening is small, I can only get my fingers in anyway, so if the pocket was deeper, it wouldn't work at all. Pocket and opening needs to be bigger. The gusset near the chest pocket zipper is also a bit odd, but maybe I will get used to that, we'll see.Overall, I am pleased. No zipper failures but I will be treating them with kid gloves.

Pros
  • Helps reduce the risk of hypothermia and frostbite in extreme temperatures
Cons
  • The jacket may not be suitable for people with mobility issues in the arms
