Very breathable and well made
First of all I am 215-220 pounds and 6 foot one inch tall. I bought the XXL model and it fits like a glove. i like that the back is breathable and half of the arms are breathable fabric.The quality of the build is very good. I rode my first ride with the coat today for 20 miles, and the temp was around 42-44 dry non windy conditions. I was pretty comfortable. My arms were a bit cold (is wearing a long sleeve jersey underneath) but not unbearably cold. No moisture build up anywhere in the jacket. I almost bought the XL jacket but I am glad I opted for the XXL version.The front vest pocket will fit a smaller smart phone comfortably. My phone seemed to big to use that pocket so I had to utilize the back pouches. Very pleased with jacket and also the bib tight I bought from the same company are superb for price and quality.

Good winter cycling jacket for the price
I bought this jacket for wearing during winter riding when temperatures are below 40°F. I wanted something fleece lined that would protect me from the wind and rain. This jacket does really well with the first one, not so well with the second.The jacket provides excellent protection for temperatures below 40. I've ridden with it all the way down to 31, recently. It hasn't been colder than that here, so I can't say how low it'd be good for. It does an amazing job at keeping the wind out and keeping me warm.It is not so great in the rain, though. Last night I rode 31 miles in the rain with a temperature of 39°F. The jacket absorbs the rain and holds on to it. Not a good jacket for the rain. However, if you put a windbreaker over top of it, something water proof that'll keep out the rain, then its perfect for rain weather too. It just doesn't do well wet.The jacket has several zipped compartments and reflectors. The zippers are fine-pitched metal and work well though I could see them binding and breaking if not careful. There are three pockets on the rear for bottles and snacks. Those pockets are not water resistant, though, so be careful with your phone. The jacket is cut longer in the back and likely best for drop-bar road and gravel cyclist.Fit wise, I am 5'11 and 160lbs and carry my weight in my stomach. I bought a size Small. I had originally bought a Medium but returned it. It was just too loose in the midsection. The Small fits me exactly how I want it to fit. Tight enough not to bunch in my mid section or flap in the wind but not so tight it won't sit over top of a long-sleeve jersey.

Request for Classic Three-Pocket Design
I like the material, fit, and color of the Przewalski cycling jacket. It performs well for cool weather rides, specifically in temperatures ranging from 40 to 55°F. The jacket is warm and comfortable to wear. However, I wish it included the classic three pockets at the back for added storage space for snacks, gloves, and spare items. The two existing pockets are small and difficult to access while riding.

A Quality Cycling Jacket
I have used my Przewalski Cycling Bike Jacket for several months now, and I really like it. I chose the blue with orange trim version, and my wife says that it looks good on me. I purchased the recommended size, and it fits me perfectly. I like that it is longer in the back such that it just covers the back pockets on my jeans. Sewing quality is very good with no apparent errors or re-stitching evident. The zippers appear to be of good quality and are easy to use.A nice feature is that the front face is relatively wind resistant when zipped up tight, while the rear uses a more breathable material. As such, you can adjust wind flow through the jacket by adjusting the main zipper as well as the pocket zippers; all control airflow through the jacket to control accumulated perspiration. At full zip, air flow through the jacket is minimal.When cycling and the outside temperature is below 45 degrees F, I wear a sweatshirt and a long sleeve shirt under the jacket to keep warm. Above 45 degrees the sweatshirt comes off. I probably won't use this jacket above about 65 degrees, as it will likely be too warm.A nice feature is that the sleeves have snug inner sleeves at the ends that poke out and cover the bare wrist area between where cycling gloves end, and a regular coat's sleeves begin -- no more cold wrists when cycling on frigid winter days. I haven't worn this coat in the rain to check how waterproof it is.For me, this coat is gently snug, comfortable and attractive, and it does not flap in the wind when reasonably zipped up. It has very good internal airflow adjustment through it making it suitable for three season use. As I said before, I like it! Recommended.

Great jacket
I bought this for cold weather cycling and I wanted something that was more visible than what I had. The first thing that struck me was that this looks and feels like a quality product. There are 3 pockets on the back, a zipper pocket on the chest, and two zipper side pockets. Really nice features. I did my first ride in it while it was 33 degrees out. Very comfortable...I have no doubt that this will allow me to ride with temps in the low 20's. The temps rose to the mid 40's on the ride and I had to take off one of the layers - the coat is very warm and windproof. I am a big guy (6'4", 265 pounds) so I usually just get the largest size they have (3XL). The fit was great - a 2XL may have fit but might have been a little tight. All in all, this is a fantastic jacket for the money.An update - We did a New Years Eve ride - temps were in the low 30's the entire time. I got rushed getting ready and only put on an thermal compression undershirt, but didn't put a jersey over it (I forgot...it's hell getting old) I was comfortable for the 3 hours we were out. Impressive.
