I'm blown away at the attention to detail that was put into this jacket. From the logo embossed seams to the ventillation for armpits to help prevent sweating during activities, this jacket is my new favorite. It pairs well with most of my every day wear and has been a great addition to wear alone in 20-50 degree weather. Overall, the outer shell is soft and doesn't make a lot of noise. It is also relatively easy to clean. I love this. The black accented front chest logo is also a great subtle addition to the coat, helping it stand out with its uniqueness. The hood, should you choose to use it, also feels fitted. It's not floppy and when the jacket is fully zipped up, it will stay on your head in the wind. This jacket does run a tad small -- I usually wear mediums, but I went with a large on this and glad I did. If you're in between sizes, definitely size up.
