My jacket is a two year model so this is an extended use review. Tremendous hood - stays on in moderate winds without having to pull it in (so still release heat) and the peak is just right to protect eyes over sunglasses. Excellent pockets - big, easy to use. I like the heavy elastic on the cuffs (some may not). Nice length. Medium fits over mesh base, R1 hoodie and light synthetic puffy (I am 155 lbs, 5' 9"). Lower wind resistance (guess at 50-60 cfm) - a wind resistant midlayer is needed when not working strenuously. Very low water resistance - at most a drizzle (reason to not give 5 stars). Very durable fabric - I wear it anytime I can reasonably confidently not expect rain - dog walking, hiking, skiing, ... Glued/adhesive tape seams are coming loose in a couple place which is disappointing after only two years (second reason for 4 stars), though should be easily DIY fixed. Also the front zip is not starting as easily as it did - hmmm.
I know this is meant to be slightly fitted, but I find it's a bit tight still. I normally wear a medium and had to buy a large for this item. This allows me to layer if needed, but can still be worn on its own. I like the material and features. The hood is great, which is a biggie for me. Would love a chest pocket.

Fits on the smaller side, but cuffs are slack. Great material perfect light layer for shoulder seasons

The jacket is fine, but I was hoping for it to be a little lighter. It is kind of heavy to wear outside of a puffy jacket and not very warm on it's own.

Works great, was under the impression that it’s insulated, (it’s not) but the jacket is still quite warm with proper layering. The jacket is super duper durable and the fabric breathes incredibly well, but the zipper pulls have been pretty finicky with one of the them actually coming off. Definitely size up, I’m usually a medium in mountain hardwear and sizing up to a large was the perfect fit for comfort.
