Great for those rainy day commutes

Rating:*****

Excellent rainproof jacket, well made and worth the investment. It has all the bells and whistles that a coat in this price range should have, and looks quite stylish (i've gotten several comments on it). I am a daily bike commuter and DON"T want to dress like so many of the pretentious bike geeks I see around town. This thing kept me bone dry. My only complaint, and this is more my fault than anything, is that it's not as breathable as I'd like, however, there are pit zips so I guess if I used them more and slowed down I'd be alright.

Great jacket

Rating:****

This jacket is great. It is super nice for skiing since it stretches quite a bit. I've never had a leak in it and I've tested it out pretty good. It is strong enough to handle tree branch scrapes and falls in mountain bowls without giving at all. My only complaint, which I have with pretty much all Golite jackets, is that it is a bit too short. I have a longer-than-normal torso and it just barely overlaps my pants. Other than that everything is really nice.

I purchase that I smile about!

Rating:*****
This has become my go to jacket for everything that involves cloudy or snowy days. It's the most breathable of the many rain jackets. And just enough outside/inside pockets to carry all you need with you. And it works great with light layering.

Best Waterproof Jacket!

Rating:*****
This jacket is the best waterproof/breathable jacket that I have ever purchased. The only drawback is that it fits a little snug for extra layering. Be sure to keep this one in your pack. You can't beat this price!
