I am extremely pleased with the fit and finish of the product. The seams and pockets lay flat. OR’s attention to detail cannot go unnoticed. Both the lining and exterior are smooth and great for layering. My only qualms with the jacket are sizing issues. The sizes run small. I’m shaped like a barrel with a broad chest and shoulders. I purchased a Large. This one is not as forgiving in the chest and arms. If you have a slender build or resemble a string bean – buy your size. Otherwise, go up a size. My large is currently listed in the classified section on Trailspace. The XL I just picked up rocks!
