Taking into account the price of the product, I expected a jacket that was 'good enough' to keep me dry during my winter mountain biking and not much else. I have been overly impressed with the quality of this product, however. As well as keeping me dry, it also does a fantastic job of keeping me warm. A couple of nice touches are the velcro wrist-cuffs and the drawstring elastic toggles around the waist. These allow you to seal the warmth inside the jacket. This doesn't mean that it isn't breathable, however, and I find myself warm but not sweaty. Perfect!
The inclusion of zipped pockets for valuables is another great feature that allows me to grant the fifth star in this product review.
Great product!
