Great jacket, but a little thin
The first thing that I noticed about this jacket when I picked it up was the texture of the fabric. It just felt durable and tough, not to mention how waterproof it felt. The fit is a little snug in the body, but the arms were longer than normal for a large, which works great for me at 6'2" and 170lbs. The pockets are huge so you won't have any trouble reaching a gloved hand in, and there is a pouch for an MP3 player or cell phone in the left pocket. The only drawback is that the liner is very thin, but if you're looking for a waterproof shell to layer up underneath, this is a great jacket for you.
