Comments about Novara Express Bike Jacket - Men's Extended Sizes:

This jacket needs to go back to the drawing board, so someone can figure out how to ventilate the arms better. The fabric is not breathable at all, so sweat gets trapped, especially in the arms and on the back.
On the other hand, the sizing is just right. I wear XXL shirts, this jacket in XXL fits me just right. I could wear several layers under it if need be, but it's not at all baggy with only a single shirt underneath.
As for whether I'd recommend this to a friend, yes, but with full disclosure of the major drawback.
