      Comments about Novara Express Bike Jacket - Men's:

      I bought this for commuting. Roomy enough for a sweatshirt or pile jacket underneath. You'll want something to keep this jacket off your skin because it's unlined. Covers the backside very well. Stops the wind. I like it.

      Service and delivery comments:

      It's very convenient to have items delivered to the store. Saves me from having to worry if they have my size in stock.

      • Chest Size:
      • Feels true to size
      • Sleeve Length:
      • Feels true to length

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Novara Express Bike Jacket - Men's:

        Keeps me dry in a downpour on a 40 min commute. The yellow gives me some great visibility. It's a bit bulky for a jersey pocket, but a must-have for all-weather commuting, especially when it gets cold.

        It packs into it's pocket and makes for a great pillow when camping out.

          Comments about Novara Express Bike Jacket - Men's:

          Waterproof and breathability is a myth, but this is a very nice jacket and I'm real happy with it. Its pretty rainproof, breaths some, and is the nicest windbreaker I've had. Its WAY better than that $20 vinyl one that shredded after 2 months and I'm not about to pay $150 for a commuter jacket. Zipper, collar, tail, pouch, vents are all good. My wife even thinks it looks good off the bike.

            Nice Jacket all cycling jackets run small for me but this is a perfect fit at 2X. Works well with a base layer, has sufficent pockets and looks great!
