        Comments about REI Ultra Light Jacket - Boys':

        Well I am 14 and about 5' 4'' and went to the REI store and was looking at the mens but the didn't have any smalls, so I went to the kid's section, tried on the XL and it fit! Plus it was [$] cheaper. The jacket is great, lightweight, and pretty breatheable, it could have a few more pockets though. But the cool media pocket means I can run in the rain.

        All 4 of my family members got one of these. It lightly rained while camping and we all got soaked through. Not waterproof.

        Comments about REI Ultra Light Jacket - Boys':

        Many of the cycling jackets are too big. So I was browsing around on REI[@] and found this little jacket for a little price. Bought it and I love it! Perfect for windy and rainy weather. Hecka waterproof, I stuck this sucker in running water and it just comes right off. I would believer in heavy rain that the jacket will soon be penetrated by water but heck its still a good jacket. There isn't much color choice, I would've liked a white version, or even a Tarck neon color..
