Does the trick
First off, let me say I'd have given this jacket 4.5 stars if I could have, ONLY for the small reason of the looseness around the neck, when fully zipped. Minor issue, but does let a bit of wind in. Other than that, this jacket does the trick. Lightweight, windproof, and even has a bit of stretch, which allows for movement and layering. I've used it mostly on long float trips in Alaska, on days where there is a bit of rain and lots of wind. With a light base layer underneath, I rarely need anything else, unless the downpours come. Totally windproof, sheds light rain, good freedom of movement while fly casting and wading. I'm 6'2", 180lb, I got the Large, fit is excellent. not too big around the chest and waist, sized for the active

Great jacket !
Very happy with this product. Nice soft shell hiking jacket. For colder weather recommend layers underneath (thin sweater). Good wind break and water resitantancy. Looks nice too.

Not as good as the salesperson stated
I bought this for traveling in 35-40 degree weather. This was the salespersons recommendation. This jacket is good for temperatures in the 50s. It does not matter that it is windproof when the collar closes poorly and does not seal. I had to wear 4 layers underneath and a scarf to seal the neck. I regret this purchase. It does pack well and never wrinkles.
