I live in Alaska and in the area I live it rains a lot during the summer. Literally twice as much rain as Portland, OR, so having a few good rain jackets is a must around here. That said, I didn't have a good cycling jacket so I'd been toughing it out with just a moisture-wicking shirt. Now that it's starting to cool off I decided to order jacket to keep me warm and dry. I own a Canari jersey and the quality is excellent, especially for the price, so I decided to try out their jacket. It is certainly rain proof and does great at fending off the wind. It's pretty warm with the lack of vents and can turn into a bit of a sauna in there if you don't let some fresh air in from time to time, which is why I knocked 1 star off. I ride really hard though, so it may not be too bad for commuting, especially on cooler days. I'm training for triathlons so this has become my rainy day running jacket as well and it works great in that regard as well.
The rear pocket is a good size, you can easily fit a phone, ipod, keys, gel's/bars, and other items of similar size....all at once. I just carry my phone and never notice it's there.
overall, this is an excellent purchase for the money. However, if you ride hard or live in a warmer area, I'd look at their vented jacket instead.

This is a great cycling jacket and highly visible, which is why I bought it in the first place. I normally wear a medium/large so decided to get large and glad I did. It fits perfectly and gives me a little wiggle room inside. I'm 5'9" and 155 lbs. A medium would have been too tight on me I'm sure. I'd recommend going one size up from what you normally wear.

This item came quickly and has performed far in excess of what similarly priced jackets would. When I need a another cycling jacket, I'll buy another.
The only downside? It would be nice if the sleeves were removable as it gets way hot here in Georgia.
