This product has absolutely fit the bill in terms of price versus performance. I moved to Chicago from Washington, DC in the early winter and found my current biking clothes wanting. To date, this jacket has been used for both biking and running, and has performed well in each activity. So that you can apply my experiences to your individual informational needs, I have used the jacket for short city commutes (4-5 miles each way) and an occasional longer rides of approximately 20 miles. The temperature outside for these rides has ranged from the teen to the thirties (15-35 degrees F) and wind ranging from calm to gusts in the high 20 mph range. Under this jacket I wear a very thin moisture wicking long sleeve and under that a short-sleeved moisture wicking shirt. This set up has permitted much comfort and is rather adjustable due to the full length front zipper. It's ability to repel the wind yet still be breathable has been great. After about 8-10 miles, I have found myself partially unzipping the jacket to moderate the warmth. Everything else about the jacket is fairly normal for biking clothes in that it has lower back (open) pockets and a small zipper pocket for wallet/keys. For running, the jacket has been used in the same temperature range (and same layers) as mentioned above. It has performed identical to the biking and I add that the material and cut is flexible enough that it does not constrict running movement. The orange color shown in the product pictures is fairly accurate and the material does also have that reflective sheen embedded so that you are visible on city streets or country roads -- a crucial aspect to me as a father.In short, this jacket has been more than acceptable for me in both biking and running in temperatures between 15-35 degrees F while being comfortable a visible. I would repurchase this item and I would recommend it to others.

I'm 5'9", 185 pounds, standard build - Large fit perfect. Hadn't had wind proof (chest/sleeves) before - it worked great while still breathing. With a long sleeve thermal base layer - this jersey was warmer than my Pearl Izumi jacket with a base layer at 45 degrees and breezy. It would be plenty warm and comfortable worn as a jersey only with no base layer - the materials are thick. It looks good, 3 pockets in back are good size (+ 1 zipper pocket). Very good quality materials and craftsmanship - It's not often I am this pleased with a purchase (I mean, I ordered my size - Large - and it actually fit. What a concept).

Overall it's a fine jacket, the fit is good to the beltline, the collar is a little stiff but manageable. Generally high quality material. I like the pocket configuration, they are spacious, and the zippers are pretty good.I went riding this morning when it was about 45 oF (8 oC), and I was delighted during my descent that I wasn't cold at all (long fingered gloves help). However, during my major climb (3 miles/5 km) long, I was halfway up and I realized I was pouring buckets of sweat. While it doesn't feel thick, quite the opposite really, it really traps your heat and I was too late to ventilate and wound up overheating for the last kilometer of my climb.Again, it's a good jacket, but it will really need to be cold (freezing or so) for me to use it regularly.

Ordered the large for me I'm 5'7" 180 lbs rock solid (beer belly), super athletic (couch potato) and I won't even mention my ninja like skills with the TV remote 🥴ðŸ˜ðŸ§. Ok sorry back to the jersey this thing is awesome fits like a champ, super comfortable, stays put below my belt the extra length in the back to cover your lower back and doesn't ride up while biking because it's really grippy so you don't have to worry about plumber butt 🤢🤮 and it keeps my arms, chest and back really warm at 41 degrees with a nice cool breeze coming in through the jersey hitting my shoulders and under my Brad Pits and exit out the back by my shoulder blades as long as I keep my usual relaxed pace on the bike otherwise I start sweating definitely meant for temperatures around 30 degrees or lower but not sure yet I'll update my post in a couple weeks.I'm trying to stay active as much as I can by bicycling mostly because it's easier on my back and walking as much as my back can handle (two herniated discs no bueno!)

Not terribly breathable but that works in its favor, it’s more a windbreaker. I wear it when it’s low 40s or 30s F and it keeps me toasty.

My dad rides his bike almost everyday and I wanted to give him a long sleeve shirt or jacket for cycling in the winter. Most cycling gear is expensive so I didn't know what to expect for the price. The jacket is great quality. He has taken his bike to Colorado and rode in 40 degree weather and the jacket kept him warm. He says the fit is snug and very comfortable. I will probably order a few more in other colors!

I am very impressed with this jacket - extremely good value for the price! I am 5ft10 inches tall, 200 pounds with a barrel chest (45 inches) and flat belly. I usually wear a size XL, but I ordered XXL and it fits me perfectly - so order one size larger than you usually wear! The material is well insulated but flexible, it fits well and the rear pockets and reflective tape are very functional. I live in Florida so our “cold†winter mornings are in the 35-45F range, this jacket is plenty warm for those temps. I would be confident wearing it down to about freezing, and possibly a little lower. The full length zipper is high quality, and the neck closure and hem tape very effectively keep the cold out. For the price this is an excellent deal, I was at the local bike shop yesterday and comparable garments cost in the $150-$200 range!
