I wanted a windbreaker and this jacket is definitely that. Overall, I am very happy with it but a couple of the features I don't care for. The first one is the Velcro flaps at the wrist. My wrists are very tiny and when I tighten the end of the sleeve, which is way too long) the flaps stick out because the Velcro on the actual sleeve is not long enough to stick the flap down at the end. I plan to remove the flap, turn up the sleeve a hem's width and run elastic through it when I get the chance. The other feature I don't care for in this jacket is the "sticky" feel of the inside of the jacket, especially on the inside sleeves. I am sure this is what makes it water-repellant/proof, but it is very uncomfortable if the weather is the least bit warm and you have a short sleeved shirt on underneath it. And if definitely is not a warm jacket, so if you are looking for something to keep you warm, this jacket might not be your best option. But for a windbreaker it is a good jacket and I like the fact you can tuck the hood into the collar for a different look. Zipper works great too.
