'NICE RETRO LIGHTWEIGHT JACKET '
Strengths:
well made bit of kit as expected from endura. reflective strips on arm work well ad the reflective endura logo on the back is the dogs nads.
Weaknesses:
Fitting is tight, bye a size larger than you need if you want a fleece under it. Jacket is a beer belly free zone.
Overall:
Does all it says and more. All my non bike mates won't one for down the pub.

'VERY BREATHABLE WATER REPLENT JACKET'
Strengths:
Very breathable, love the colours, lots of scotch tape to let everyone know your there! zips are very strong. The ripstop fabric works well. Endura re applied my scotch tape when it started to come off a year after I bought it superb customer service.
Weaknesses:
love or hate the colour. the tape tends to come off the arms but will be replaced free of charge from Endura
Overall:
very breathable and repells light rain, great all year round.

'GOOD ALL-PURPOSE JACKET'
Strengths:
Keeps the wind out, very breathable, ultralight, reflective bits are very effective, drawstring closure to neck is effective, lasting well (no damage or faults after a year)
Weaknesses:
None.
Overall:
I wear this all the time whent the weather cools. It's the ideal outer-layer - keeps the wind out but breathes very well, never get sweaty in it. It's not water-proof, but then it's not supposed to be and it's far more breathable than any 100% waterproof jacket. Keeps showers out just fine.

It is indeed 'close-fitting', just the right amount of room for a micro-fleece if needs be underneath it. The fit means it won't flap in the wind, but the sleeves and back are still just right length.
