– FDX Men's Waterproof Cycling Jacket Breathable Windproof Hi-Viz Rain Coat

I was looking for a reasonably priced waterproof jacket for cycling and then read a few reviews about this jacket. I took the plunge and purchased and tried it for the first time today as on my cycle to work for 30 minutes in a hard drizzle, this jacket did keep me dry which was good. It's whether it is torrential rain proof but for the price it seems a good jacket. It would be handy if size information could be on this purchase site as i had to look on another web site regarding this and wasn't sure then if i was ordering the correct size but luckily the jacket fit nicely and pleased with this item purchased.

I bought this to go with the FDX trousers for when riding and it’s wet. They are a great addition and worth it 100% for waterproofs or even if it’s a little cold. This does a great job to trap the heat in.

Bought this the other day as a layer for a poor weather ride out round the lakes. Kept me comfortable on my 100 mile ride , was out in a mix of weather but it kept me fairly dry all day. Like any water proof it will leak in eventually but it kepts the wind and the cold from affecting me so it's a positive review from me. The rear pocket is brilliant and has plenty of storage for snacks and anything you'll be carrying.

Bought for my son who used to ride to work, great jacket.

Okay, well a great price for a winter jacket however I feel fdx need to spend a little more on it, I certainly wouldn't mind paying 10 - 15 pound more if the quality was upped some! Firstly, the collar is too tight, medium sized jacket is perfect fit as it should be but can't put zip all the way up to chin. Secondly, the zip has already parted at the bottom when done up but managed to get it back down and now have to be very careful. Thirdly, the back pocket is practically useless because the inner lining isn't attached to anything so if you miss the inner pocket part the item is loose on the inside of the jacket so it ends up anywhere in inside! Also because it is so big you have to delve around a lot and hence the cheap zip is now broke and the material is now tearing, so overall I was thinking good for two winters but it will probably just last out this one. Spend a bit more on it FDX, and it will be well worth it, keeps you dry and is warm and comfortable!

The fit is snug and you can seal up the cuffs so its excellent for keeping the wind out. It's also durable so its rain resistant as well. I would say its more of a cold weather jacket. I think it might be a bit too much in the warmer weather and get a bit hot but as we haven't had much decent weather lately I'm only guessing at this. A great buy and a great price.

Got this jacket just in case I needed it whilst on a charity cycling weekend (21st-23rd Sept 2018) event. 3 days cycling from Wakefield (UK) to Hull, then Zeebrugge to Roubaix, finally from Roubaix to 25 miles south then returning to Lille. All it did for the whole 3 days was rain - and we are talking rain of biblical proportions! All this jacket did was keep my body dry! Honestly, it was perfect. Yeah, the water eventually seeped in via the neck and cuffs, but leaking through the seams or other joins? Didn't happen. Not once! I bought a large sized jacket and I am a guy with about a 42" chest, even when wearing my winter jacket underneath (yep, it really was that wet and cold!) there was enough room to feel comfortable, but not too baggy to feel like I was wearing a parachute! It still felt comfortable when I was only wearing it over my my jersey too. I couldn't roll this jacket to be small enough to fit in a rear jersey pocket; this jacket is certainly designed to be one of those that you'll decide to wear for the whole ride (i.e. maybe a cold and frosty day, or you anticipate being caught in rain on a cool day). It even has air-vent zips running down the rear, from the arms - something I didn't realise until I had it on the washing line, post my event. One last thing. FDX are a very good seller too. I had an issue with my initial order and contacted them - within 24 hours they had responded and within 48 hours my particular problem was totally resolved. Would certainly buy from this seller again. And one more one last thing... I raised over £450 for the charity in which I was cycling for. (I just want to demonstrate to you all that this is a genuine review!).

Item is great, fabric is very high quality. Giving only 4 point because it is less reflective than I would like it to be for a bicycle jacket.
