This jacket is just what I was looking for in a cycling jacket, bright color, wind protection, and water resistant (I have not worn it in the rain yet). I love that the sleeves zip off but wish the zippers ran from bottom to top rather than the other direction as it would allow a bit more armpit ventilation with the arms still on. The only problem that I have with this jacket is in great agreement with the other review...it runs really small. I always wear a medium in a jacket to give a little extra room for a layer underneath. I had to reorder a large, and the sleeves are a bit long. However, I will take the sleeves for a little more room in the body. The collar is very comfortable and soft. I am sure that I will get much use out of this jacket. Overall, a great asset to my safety with the high-vis yellow color. (screaming yellow)

Bought this jacket in advance of a half-iron distance race that I knew would be quite chilly. It was 50 degrees when I came out of the water, I threw this jacket on when I was still wet, and it was perfect the entire ride. Light, breathable, and silky smooth with no billowing. For training rides, I love the pockets and the fact I can very easily take the sleeves off and that they come off as one unit, not two. Very clever design. I new I wanted this particular model because it is the successor to my 25-year old Pearl Izumi windbreaker. Quality lasts.

I love this jacket!!! Being able to convert it and place the sleeves in the back pocket is wonderful and the bright yellow is easily visible. Only problem is that the size runs really small. I ordered a larger size than normal and still found it tight at the shoulders (especially when gripping the handlebars). Light-weight, warm and soft on the skin. Not sure how it does for rain yet, but for wind it's pretty good.
