Despite the fact that the collar is huge, and the fact that venting gussets substitute for pitzips, this jacket is phenomenal at both casual and performance wearage. I believe I have the Spring '08 model, sized medium. At 5'10"/150ish, this jacket fits me perfectly. There's even enough room for a base layer and a light, form-fitting fleece jacket underneath. I've worn it outside in fall temperatures just walking around, and it does the job. I've also worn it while hiking in the mountains in near-freezing temperatures, and it does the job. When you sweat, it doesn't build up too much, and it dries very quickly. I zipped the hood right out of mine and really don't plan on using it unless absolutely necessary, but the roominess in the collar does not bother me at all. Pitzips would be nice, but again the material is so breathable and dries so fast that the gussets aren't a bad substitute. Plus, you can't go wrong with WINDSTOPPER...that stuff does what it says.
