Wicked cool, but don';t wear with short sleeves |

Fits true to size. I'm 5'11" and 190 lbs, and the large size is comfortable.
Looks wicked cool, and the 1000 denier cordura feels more like an armored carapace than a jacket. Definitely not soft, but should improve with some breaking in. Despite this the articulated sleeves have surprisingly good range of motion without binding or riding up the arms.
The inner liner is thin, and if you wear this jacket over a short sleeved shirt, your elbows and forearms can get friction burns - mine did. Simple solution: a long sleeved shirt or under layer solves the problem. Similarly, a better quality liner on the inner collar would have been appreciated, but you can get by with a scarf or neck wrap.
I wish Kitanica had kept the shoulder flashlight strap from the original version. But this one has plenty of pockets and they are all practical.
Overall, I really like it, and am looking forward to breaking it in.
