Great In-between Season Jacket
I love this jacket so far. The fit is perfect for me. This has been my go-to activity jacket. I have been running and biking in it. I have also used it as a good mid layer under my shell here in rainy Seattle. It doesn't have a ton of insulation, but for the warmer days it is great as a breathable do everything jacket. The fabric is very durable, and I don't feel like I will have any future issues with it. Feels like I could take a couple good falls off my bike on it and I would most likely break myself before the jacket. I will say one downside is that in windy conditions that hood does end up catching the wind. Make sure that you tuck it behind your back if you are commuting.
Great All-Around Jacket
This Jacket is a great all-around jacket not just for Mountain Biking but for any other activities. The fit is true to size, the Jacket is very breathable, durable, and great wind protection I would highly recommend this for anybody that's looking for a versatile light weight jacket!
Awesome technical MTB layer for wet or chilly days
Very comfortable. Good fit - if anything it runs just a tad big, could go as an outer layer over jersey and mid-layer for warmth, or mid-layer under a more robust waterproof shell for heavier downpour. Breathes well, looks good, ample stretch, wears well under hydration pack. A great addition to MTB kit.
New Favorite Go-To
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, the Freewheel Half Zip Hoodie made by Outdoor Research is an incredible masterpiece that exceeds my expectations. Although intended for MTBing, it's my favorite touring layer, and I can't wait to use the Freewheel on my MTB once the snow melts. Whether hitting an alpine trail or local flow, this layer performs and is "smart." It keeps me warm when I'm cold, and when I start to work up a sweat, it manages to keep me cool. Outdoor Research gave me this product to try, and it's replacing my previous go-to layers. The Freewheel is my new favorite lightweight outerwear for all mountain expeditions. A side note ~ when paired with the OR Echo hoodie, you can comfortably and stylishly endeavor on anything and everything the mountains throw your way.
Amazing Shell
Im a huge fan of OR products. I dont think they get the respect they deserve in the outdoor gear world. This jacket doesn't disapoint. Perfect early fall pull over shell. Great for breaking the wind and keeping you dry. Im a big guy, so I appreciate the length.
Sweet Outdoor Research jacket
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Awesome weatherproof layer with functional chest pocket for phone. Much warmer than typical weatherproof layer, great for hiking and mountain biking. Kept me warm and dry in 30-35 degree mixed rain & snow with just Helium vest underneath.
Awesome Jacket!
I absolutely love this jacket. OR has really hit it out of the park with the freewheel MTB gear! This jacket acts like a hard shell windbreaker but is soft and breathes so well. It moves so nicely. Absolutely Amazing jacket
I use this for riding in NWA, we get very cold winters here and it's handles the weather like a champ. I don't get overheated and stay comfortable throughout the day. Would definitely recommend this to a cold weather rider.
Perfect
This jacket is the exact one you need for riding in weather between 38 and 55. Repels water well, washes well, and looks great even when you aren’t biking. The fit is impeccable. 6”2 230lbs XL
