I love this jacket for casual wear. It is lightweight and warm. I have not worn it on a ride but have been running in it and wear it as an everyday jacket. I plan to use it this winter on my fat tire bike. The back pocket is great for your phone. I have not used the hood but the drawstrings are long, it could be bothersome on a ride. I bought the black in a Medium. It is a bit big but allows for layers. (I am usually between a small and medium) I really like the looks of it. It is very comfortable. It was a great purchase for me.

I would not use this again to bike... the hood when you look back in traffic sometimes gets in the way and the strings from the hood flying in the wind was not great either. I would recommend this nice jacket for hiking or even every day use instead of biking (unless you are on a fun joy ride). Nice quality and warm. I should have ordered a small (5 foot 3 inches, 118#), runs slightly larger. Bought the fun colorful one.

I really loved this jacket- the colors, the design. But for me it was too tight in the arms - bulky in the shoulders but tight across the back. I've seen it fit others really really well, I just don't think it was designed for someone who is broad and 36 D- I was in a size large. But The body fit great!
