Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

It's impossible to find anything I don't like about this jacket. I'm completely surprised - especially because of the low cost. I was not expecting this level of quality, look and feel. I wanted a light weight jacket that could be layer under and especially for travel where space and weight is a concern and I didn't want to pay a lot of money for it. I looked at a LOT of jackets and they were either too warm, too bulky or too cheaply made based on reviews. And then I found this incredible jacket. It exceeded my expectations in all categories. I would say the temp range is from 20-45 degrees with fairly minimal layering/under garments, but that will depend on just what you wear underneath. It definitely does a nice job of breaking the wind, so with fleece underneath, it could be toasty at 15 degrees. It's extremely comfortable - it barely feels like you are wearing a jacket at all. I'm 6'1" with a 42" chest, 180 lbs, and a large fits perfectly with sufficient space for movement and a layer or two. The length is perfect at just below the waist and the sleeve length perfect - I wear a 36" sleeve. As others have mentioned the collar does not turn down, but it is a pretty minimal collar and with this soft material, I find I really like the collar the way it is. The material is soft and pliable and never feels stiff and uncomfortable. I bought the Heather Green and it's really a nice color that has a great casual look and it's not that shiny look - it's kinda matte type finish. I've gotten a lot of complements on it. And when I tell people what I paid they are blown away. The jacket has two large lined and very deep exterior side pockets that zip and one large interior vest pocket that does not zip or close which is fine by me. Velcro would have been annoying. And finally, it comes with a separate bag with a draw string that secures the jacket when rolled up. And the bag can attach to the inside coat hanger loop if you desire, which is how it came and the way I use it. The water resistant feature is nice for drizzle and mist, but I'll wear it underneath a waterproof windbreaker in rainy conditions. This will become my go to travel jacket. This is indeed a home run for Amazon Basics and I highly recommend this jacket.
