Great jacket
By Jason True
May 3, 2009
I wear this jacket mostly for touring or mtn biking early season. Even without pitzips it breathes exceptionally well. It can take some precip, but if you are in a full on downpour this is not the jacket. It is a slim fit. I am 5 '10 180 and a medium is just right with a very light layer underneath. If you want to wear a heavier layer underneath I would size up.
