I am 5'8" 190 and I usually wear a M in TNF gear but this one has a more athletic cut than some of their other jackets. I have the windwall thermal in a M and two fleece jackets in M. This one however I needed a L. It is stretchy material and breathes well. For being resistant-which it does a good job of, it breathes very well. I woudl rate the wind resistance 4 out of 5. I wear it for running and in the winter for snowshoeing on warmer days and it does what I need it to-move well, insulate just a bit, breath and protect from wind.

I got this jacket last week and took it camping in Moab and it did great. It was warm enough to wear in in the day and block the wind. At night it worked great under my down jacket. I am 200lbs and 6'3" and got an XL and it works great. I sized up since it is the summit series which normally are more form fitting. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a light weight layering piece or a great light jacket for a windy day.

So far this jacket is great for spring skiing. It blocks the wind well considering how lightweight the coat is. On a 35 degree day here in Utah I wear a medium weight fleece underneath and stay warm. Seems to repel water and breathes quite well.

Great athletic fit!
I have been using my jacket a few weeks now for spring ski touring and ski mountaineering,it seeems to be the perfect jacket for spring mountain temperatures.In the evenings it has served well for when the tenperature drops on evening mountain or road rides!

This coat is a great one to wear in all conditions- be it snow, sunny or even the occasional downpour. I happened to be wearing it one night that turned epic (i.e. downpour and lightning) and it held it's own, even if by no means is it considered waterproof. However, it is one hundred percent windproof. One of the best hybrid soft shells made- Gore windstopper front and arms and house brand Apex soft shell for a little breathability under the arms and sides.

Took this jacket on a trail run in 25 degree weather. Great wind/snow protection and comfortable with two poly-pro layers underneath. The hood stays out of the way and I would imagine it would be useful in a storm situation. Pretty sure this will be one of my favorite all-around jackets.

Love the jacket. Good looking, great fit, works in all weather.

When I first took this jacket out of the box I was surprised at how thin it was, and wasn't sure how it would hold up in chilly/windy/rainy weather. While it isn't too warm (not really designed to be), it is excellent for wind/drizzle, really holds up well. Athletic cut, but it moves well, not constricting at all. Overall a really nice jacket.

I take this thing everywhere! Been skiing with it, hike with it, or just wear it everywhere. It's light, yet durable. blocks the wind awesome, and looks good! It packs up really small and is my jacket of choice to keep on me at all times...
