Good emergency jacket, recommend sizing up
I bought this to keep in my bike bag just in case the weather turns south midway through the day/ride. It’s super packable and keeps me very dry. Not very breathable but the waterproofing and small size make up for that. I originally ordered a medium and reordered a large for a better fit. I am 5’10, 145#, with slightly wide shoulders.Pros:- super bright and very visible for bike commuting-very small when packed up, fits in a bike bag nicely- very dry in light rain and snowy weatherCons- not the most breathable- might need to size up from what you’re used to, especially if you plan to wear it over other layers

Keeps the rain off!
Bought this for dual use cycling and general rain protection. It’s bright, waterproof, and durable. Has a hood and a back pocket (great for cycling) plus three front pockets. Impressed by the quality for the price - you could easily pay 3x this. Would be a great wind breaker also. Fit is about right.

Great Warmth for the Weight but a tad snug
I bike commute every day in all weather and do fun rides most weekends. I got this a few weeks ago to use as my spring/fall jacket, for days where I absolutely need a jacket in the morning, but may be riding home in much warmer weather in the late afternoon and don't want to have to carry a heavy, bulky coat on my bike. So far this works very well for that role.*** THE GOOD: **** The warmth provided for a jacket this light is pretty striking. It just has a shell and a thin liner sewn in -- it is very light. Yet this morning my commute was just below freezing and this jacket kept me warm enough.* Adequate pockets. There are two front pockets for keeping my gloves in, an upper front pocket for keeping my mask and a spare gaiter in and a more spacious rear pocket that I haven't used yet, but has enough space for my phone, my wallet, and my keys with a bit of room left over.* The hood can be worn under my bike helmet. It does take a bit of adjustment to get right, but it can keep the rain off my head without blocking my visibility.* The color is bright and high visibility, which is useful as the time change means it's now dark when I ride in the mornings.* So far it has kept me dry riding in early spring rains. Although I have only tested this on a fairly short commutes to date.*** THE NOT SO GOOD: **** I'm currently at a "XL is too tight, XXL is too loose" weight. Since this will often be an overlayer, I ordered a double X to leave some room. And while it does fit, it is a lot more snug that any other double X jacket or shirt I own - it's more of an X and a Half Large than a Two X Large. If you are larger and unsure of sizes, you definitely want to round up to the next size.* The zipper is a little sticky. It can be hard to work with one hand -- which is a significant downside for riding routes with varying hills and winds.* There is no compartment, nor zipper, nor velcro closure for folding the hood in. You can wear the hood, tuck the hood annoyingly behind your neck or deploy it as a drag chute. This seems an oversight for a *cycling* jacket.* I still haven't managed to actually fold this jacket into its own back pocket for storage and transport. The procedure is not as trivial as the images here make it seem. Now my commuter bike has racks and bags attached and this is light and small enough to just tuck in or tie it off multiple places on my bike so I haven't tried all that hard to make this feature work.

Great, well made, reflective jacket
Excellent product! This jacket is perfectly made, lightweight, and roomy pockets. The green is highly visual for biking etc. Exactly what I was looking for.One note- it does run small so size upNormally a medium but got large and it is just right in all areas.

Well constructed, good hood and very waterproof
I wear this jacket for outdoor exercise, mostly running and walking. I'm very pleased with the fit and function. This jacket is very waterproof and is dependable even in heavy rain.. The fabric itself doesn't seem breathable, but the vent in the back works well enough. The hood is adjustable and works well with a slight bill to the front. The hood doesn't flop in front of my face and I've never had water drip into the jacket.I'm also like the high visibility color for jogging at dusk/dark and obviously wanting to be visible to drivers.

Comfortable rain riding jacket.
Comfortable riding/rain jacket. Fits as advertised. Seems like USA sizing not European uber tight cut. I have rode in light rain with the jacket and it's water repellent yet breathes, you are not going to sweat so much that it feels as if you rode without a raincoat. It's comfortable enough to be a windbreaker on dry days.

True to size
This is BAR-NON the BEST raincoat that me and my husband has ever owned. It is true to size, great quality and looks really rich! I have received numerous compliments on it. Definitely worth the price!

It is short
Got this for my son for Christmas. Quality is good. The only thing I’m questioning is the length. I ordered XL so he could wear a jacket or sweatshirt under to walk his dog in rain. It fits him well but is short for a rai jacket. It comes to his waist that’s it. To me a rain jacket should be to your buttocks so that the water can shed off. He kept it as says really repels rain & hood is nice but I think it should be longer.
