Fox Trooper Jacket - Men's - 2007 BCS

Hey all, just thought I'd point out a couple of things. First, this jacket really seems well made and well thought through: wind/water proof, looks great, heat-control with the dual-direction zip (can open from top or bottom) and pit-zips is fantastic, multiple pockets, reflective strips... The only "complaint" (not really a complaint, just an observation) is that it runs really, really big. I've got a 42" chest and a 34"waist and I'm swimming in it. I'm usually a large in biking stuff, but I suspect that when I get the medium, it'll still be on the big side. It'll be good for layering once the cold weather comes in, though. I'm guessing that's why they sized it the way they did. In any case, I'd recommend ordering one size down.

Also,I read a review somewhere that the zippers failed quickly and easily, I haven't found that to be the case.

Cheers,
Alex

I had the chance to really use this jacket the other day in a down pour. It held up reasonably well and kept me fairly dry. More importantly nothing in my pockets got wet. So far it's done it's job. I took the advice of the previous review and ordered a M instead of L. Fits very well.

Thanks.
