Lori and Vince –
I gave 5 stars for water resistance and weatherproofness as I feel it will likely do well enough. I don’t expect water proof, just to keep it at bay for a while. Have yet to actually put it through its paces.I gave my only waterproof jacket to my mom as she needed it when we were out once. She loved wearing it, so I said she could keep it. Thus, I now need a replacement as I have nothing else water resistant and will be going on a 2 wk trip to Norway in mid June. It is still cool above the arctic circle in June. I needed one garmet that could cover a decent range of weather. This was cheap, water resistant and had a good hood. I took a chance (having time to return and get something else if I didn’t like it). Got it yesterday and gave it a good exam and wear around the house. It is exactly as advertised. I ordered a 2XL as I am in between XL and 2XL in most things and just erred on the side of safety. The 2XL fits PERFECTLY. It has enough room still for a fleece or hoodie underneath. For reference, I am 5’8″ and 240lbs (stocky not round). The jacket’s shell is very comfortable fabric that has some stretch, so it moves very nicely with you and seems reasonably durable. The thin fleece liner is nice and makes it much more comfortable to wear. The pockets and stitching all look well done and pass my initial exam. The dual zipper works very well. I have an ICON motorcycle jacket with a dual zipper that sucks. Was worried this would too, nope. The rest of the zippers all work very well. I kept saying to myself, this was only $32. I should buy more. The hood, when rolled up, isn’t ideal, but fine. Just leaving it down is likely how I will roll. Also, the velcro on the hood is a bit misaligned. Not bad and still works fine, but I notice it. This jacket appears to be identical to the Free Soldier jacket (like many things on Tomahawk Tactical Supply Find – same thing, different brand names and prices), just in this case, much cheaper. For the money, this is AMAZING.Note on the sizing chart: It appears that the Chest size is the actual circumference of the fabric, not your suit coat size. Thus, if I wanted it to wear it bare chested like skin, a small would be perfect (49 chest) You have to account for how many extra inches you want inside to account for shirts and potentially layers, for reference, the 2XL was ideal for me.

Overall it is not a bad jacket, with a couple issues which are not enough for me to stop using it when needed.1. Material is very rubbery-stiff. Seems nicely waterproof, so not a killer issue.2. Coat zipper is mounted on the left side. Annoying as I am very used to a right mounted zipper and keep having to re-orient myself when zipping up. Minor, but annoying.3. Plenty of pockets, most of which are useless. It is tactical as a fashion statement. The same thing with the velcro patch spots.Would I buy it again? No. IT fits what I needed at this time but is not really what I want.
