I bought this jacket because I was traveling internationally from a cold climate to a hot climate and needed a lightweight jacket that would provide good coverage. It absolutely needed to be lightweight because it needed to fit into my carry-on backpack and be easy to carry around in the country with me when I needed it. That jacket was exactly that. The jacket is very lightweight and also folds into one of the pockets. After your unfold it from the pocket, it will be wrinkled. It was just stuffed into a small space after all. But before long most of the wrinkles come right back out and the jacket looks fine again. The jacket being able to fold into the pocket is also very handy for transporting it in bag or backpack.

Also the sleeves have velcro straps that make the end of the sleeves adjustable if you have smaller wrist or just want tighter coverage on your wrist. The sleeves were long enough for me which is always a plus. I am 5'7 and have longer arms so sometimes that can be a hassle.

The pockets are pretty large and have zipper which was great for me in the airport during the time when I always needed to have my passport out but didn't always want to have it in my hands. Travelers, y'all know what I'm talking about .

My only complaint is that the hood was a bit small to me. I wish it had a few more inches of coverage for my head but it's definitely manageable. I didn't really use it too much except on the plane when I wanted to sleep anyway and honestly it was good enough for that.

When I returned back to my colder climate, it was raining and the jacket was great for that too! It was fine for the light rain we had here. I stayed dry and thats usually the goal. I'm not sure how it will do in heavier rain, but honestly, if you need a raincoat, buy a raincoat right?

Overall, I would definitely recommend the jacket.

This thing is weird. First of all the zipper is on the wrong side for a men's jacket. Not the end of the world, it just feels awkward to zip. It also has a bunch of things on it clearly designed for nothing other than looks. Despite this, I love the jacket. It looks great and is warm. Probably not the best jacket in the world, but I still like it a lot
