Very good value for the money. Windproof and waterproof. The pockets are a little strange. No side pockets for hands. The side pockets furnished are high on the sides and toward the back, about as high as it is possible to reach while wearing the jacket, but too high for hands when open. Big enough for cell phone or long wallet, but if smaller stuff got in there I would probably have to take the jacket off to get it back out. Big pocket low on the back to carry a ground cover, map, or something thin like that. Would be uncomfortable to put hard objects in there. There are other pockets as well in places I did not expect (on the sleeves) and some of these have small openings to feed (I guess) a phone or music player cord through. Has drawstring fit adjustment at bottom and midline (I don't use them). Inside pockets are a little strange. The big ones are open at top and bottom, so they really aren't pockets at all. Again probably for electronics of some kind. Good length for wearing in the car, could be a little longer for really cold weather, but would then have to come off when getting in the car. Good hood with velcro to secure it if you don't want to use it. And, speaking of velcro, it has various patches of velcro stuck around on it, again I'm guessing this is to hold small music players or maybe the kind of removable insignia that some cops and military units like to use. Nice jacket, especially at this price, but the styling is a little weird for my taste (but not enough to keep me from wearing it. Flimsy plastic zipper has upper and lower operator (zip it up but then you can unzip from the bottom) troublesome to get started correctly so I seldom use it. If you use it frequently it will probably be the first thing to fail.
