This is a decent windbreaker, but I'm not crazy about it. Instead of ordering by the size I'd normally wear (maybe up a size since I like jackets loose) I went by their measurement chart. Big mistake. It's too big but somehow the shoulders still feel uncomfortably snug when I move. Not snug in a way that it doesn't fit well, but snug in the way that it wasn't designed to move.
The whole thing is kind of boxy. I had to check again after it arrived to see if maybe it was a unisex jacket but nope. Seems like an odd shape for a women's jacket. I wasn't crazy about the very wrinkled and crinkly material, but compared to some other windbreakers I've seen it's probably pretty average. It seems to get major wrinkles very easily so I'm not sure how packable it would be, unless you had a steamer to straighten it out again or you don't mind the wrinkles. The mesh lining is a bit rough but I guess since it's meant to be worn over clothes it won't be touching skin so won't matter in the long run.
It's lightweight and seems like it will do a good job keeping the wind off me. It's summer now so I haven't been able to really test it out in the proper weather. It's put together well, the zipper runs smoothly, and I can tell the materials are good quality. I'll be able to give it a true test when the fall brings some good winds.
