Mine came today (the second not the first- that hasnt even dispatched yet?! – strange).
Anyway onto business. First impressions are that it’s quite nice. Fit is good for me, the adjustability is nice as you can do the cuffs very tight, good for stopping air coming up the sleeves, and also the good hood and neck protection is well done. The hood isn’t wired which is a bit naff, but you can’t have everything.
Four pockets which look fairly well proofed, not bad. Seam sealing inside is done badly, peeling at the ends, but it’s a £30 jacket.
On the whole it looks good, not £125 good, but definitely more than £30 good!
Can’t comment on breathability yet, but it’s not the most DWR jacket I have seen, light water rolled off, heavy water sept in a bit. But then it’s a softshell – shower proof not tap proof! Windproofing seems nice, blowing through it is hard to do (the ultimate test I am aware).
On the whole, wouldn’t have liked to pay more than £45 for it, but it’s quite nice!
Oh and with the arm length comment, I am average for the size, and found them a bit longer than usually, maybe an inch. Good for biking.
The back of the jacket is slightly elongated too, again good for biking.
