This is a great high visibility jacket. (Note: high visibility not reflective.) Comfortable. Well made. Three zipped pockets with a large one at the back. Windproof and waterproof. Exactly what I wanted at a reasonable price. I'd say they've got the sizing about right. I'm normally a large but I went for XL so I could put layers underneath it. it's a bit loose but that's what I expected. Recommended.Update 30th March 2018 - I've had this six months now and cycled to work most days through icy weather, snow and heavy rain. No problems with the zips and plenty of space in the back pocket for thick gloves and a balaclava, and it's kept me warm and dry. The breast pocket incidentally is large enough to accommodate an iPhone 6 Plus. This is a very good product.Update: 12th December 2019 - After 27 months of regular use 2-3 times a week, the zipper at the front has finally jammed. I think this counts as fair wear and tear so I still stand by my recommendation that this is a good product.Update 14th December 2019 - I have fixed the zipper and it's usable so I'm keeping it as a spare.

Not bad value for the money!
Good value cycling jacket for the money. Do go for the realistic size that you know you are! This is a highly reflective jacket that is ideal for commuting. Definitely waterproof, but breathability, no,I don’t think so. There are some really good features on this jacket; already mentioned it’s waterproof, the other being the pockets. Both are side pockets, but the right hand pocket extends across the back, whilst the left is a smaller pocket ideal for keeping your keys in. The one thing that lets the jacket down is the collar - It’s way too loose around the neck. Cycling clothing is all about a snug fit - You would need Dan Cole or Joe Marler to make that collar fit nicely. It’s the last thing you want on a cold winters day, plus there is no adjustment.Lastly, it’s a very crinkly material, don’t like it! Does have a good lining though.

Great value waterproof
I was a bit suspicious about the waterproof claims for the price, but I've had this a few months now. And just recently cycled home through a terrible downpour and my layer underneath was completely dry.Unfortunately, the pockets are weird. The pockets point back instead of forward! I've a similar jacket that went forward AND back inside the pockets. This jacket is very hard to put things into the pockets, like if you want to put your gloves in your pockets mid-cycle, it's very awkward. So, I'm knocking one star off for that.But overall great value waterproof.

Great for the job.
Good jacket, definitely waterproof, unlike my last one. Good long sleeves and the cuffs are part elasticated with that (awful) plastic Velcro type strip (which I personally do not like as they never seem to work for very long). Many say that the sizing is way out, and in one respect, I agree. I am a size 14 woman and ordered a large, and although there is plenty of room in the jacket, it is very fitted towards the bottom, which makes it very snug, and the zips only just meet. So, if you are a bit on the large side, I'd order a couple of sizes larger, if you want to fasten it. The only other thing I dislike about this jacket is that the pockets only face backwards, I would have liked them to go all the way from front to back but never mind. The right pocket goes all the way around the back, the left pocket is just more like a backwards pocket, so you can put things in that one and not have to chase it all around the jacket. The colour is a bit weird too, it looks very yellow in certain lights, but as long as I'm seen by today's reckless car drivers, I don't care.

Fantastic product and Company to deal with
I have to say what a refreshing company to deal with as was more than happy to discuss the product on the phone before purchasing in great deal to avoud any size issues or concerns i had.

Great jacket
Great jacket, use it every day going to work and despite the multiple spins in the washing machine the internal meash is still perfect and the outer layer not bruised or marked. The jacket is excellent at keeping the wind and the rain out, even if it pours, and the colour doesn't fade with time.My only gripe is the limited amount of reflective elements (those already there are somewhat small) to increase visibility in the dark and also the lack of two front pockets, hence the four stars and not five. Otherwise great product.

Accurate size
Fantastic jacket, great value for money however had to exchange it for a smaller size. After reading other reviews I bought a 10 although I'm an 8 and sure enough it was too large. Returned it direct to the supplier as their depot is about 8 miles from me and they had had 4 returns that very day for a smaller size. The sizes of this jacket are accurate so please buy the size you would normally wear.

Great value for money
Great value for money, the suggested price IS realistic for in-shop expectation. Great design, super quality materials, fully waterproof (tested), robust zips, hyper vibrant yellow, reflective surfaces, mash layer everywhere including sleeves. I suspect it is a direct competitor to Altura Nightvision which used to be £120 but now £80. My previous, Goretex, £100, jacket had 10yr warranty, lasted 10, but is half the FEEL quality. It had no mash layer therefore was not as warm, was duller yellow and its goretex layer inside the jacket disintegrated towards the end of life, the zip was opening on its own in the last year.
