Casual/urban style, Arc'teryx quality
This jacket is very well-made. The zippers are smooth, there is an internal vertical-zipper pocket, two flapped chest pockets, and buttoned cuffs. The fit is casual. I am 6'1", 180 lbs, athletic build, and the large was very comfortable. If you like things slim-fitting and uncomfortable get the medium. The fabric is a heavy cotton canvas, and beads very light water, but if this got soaked it would probably be very heavy and uncomfortable. I can't see any reason for someone to wear this on the trail. If it is cold enough to warrant a jacket, you are better off with a soft shell. On a motorcycle, sure, but not if you are going to be exerting energy. There is also a screen logo on the left sleeve that is pretty small, but noticeable. A good-looking and very sturdy jacket for the money.
