First of all, the guys giving advice are fantastic. Thanks!
The jacket looks and behaves as I'd hoped. I particularly like the roominess in the shoulders and length of the sleeves. The extra large width of the pleated cuff, which can be snugged around your glove, was an interesting and positive feature.
The high collar and hood do a great job covering my neck, lower face and helmet during those face-shot pow days.
The zipper is sturdy but I think I'd have preferred a larger tab, and I also would have liked a zipped compartment up on the chest.
These are minor issues for me and overall I'd give the jacket very high marks and suggest it to anyone.
(Oh, and mine is black).
