Great jacket... Extremely warm (even when wind chills reached single digits). I purchased this jacket for running (as well as the matching tights) and they have been a great investment. I can honestly say that without it I wouldn't be particpating in winter training. One small drawback is the extra room in the chest. The jacket is designed more for cycling, but I found it worked great for running as well.

Sizing:

Feels half size too big

Pros:

Durable, Good Pockets and Features, Lightweight

Best Uses:

Bad Weather, Cold Windy Running

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I wouldn't expect a wind and water resistant jacket to be breathable simulateously, so I was unsurprised to feel the sweat build up on the inside of the jacket. However, I didn't feel cold and clammy from the sweat during the run. The longer sleeves keeps the wind from chilling the wrists and is excellent for a stretched out position on a bicycle too. Plus, I really appreciate the reflective design for evening Winter runs.

Worth the $$$

Pros:

Breathable, Dries Quickly, Durable, Good Pockets and Features, Lightweight

Best Uses:

Bad Weather, Road Racing

I just bought one of these jackets and I love it. I bought it for road cycling in cold weather and I live in Minnesota. When the road is clear and dry in the winter and the temperature is above 25, I'd take a road trip with other cyclist once a week. On our last trip, we went 68 miles on 30 degree temperature and this jacket kept me warm. It feels good and looks good. It has enough reflectives for when it gets dark around 4pm and you're still out there. I also wear it when I run. I really enjoy the specific pocket for carrying the ipod.
I wasn't sure which size to get, though. I'm 5'0" and 108 lbs. Between XS and S, after calling and talking to one of EMS representatives, I decided to get the XS and it was just right. I got the red one and I love it. I hope this helps! Good luck!
