This jacket has been a lifesaver during the rainy Florida afternoons. It’s light weight and has a mesh interior that doesn’t let the jacket stick to your skin in the humidity. While the exterior is water resistant, it does not have that loud material “swish” when walking. My husband loves that he can still play golf in light rain while wearing this and not get too hot. He’s 5’11 on a good day and the medium fits well for length.

The Repel jacket strikes a nice balance between style and comfort. It’s lightweight, soft, and very comfortable to wear, making it a great choice for everyday use. The materials feel premium, from the fabric to the zipper, giving the jacket a high-quality impression overall. That said, the fit could use some improvement. The body is cut rather wide while the sleeves run a bit short. It’s not a dealbreaker, but something to keep in mind. I wouldn’t recommend the size Large for taller people with longer arms, as the proportions might feel slightly off. Overall, a stylish and comfortable jacket with excellent materials, but consider sizing carefully if you’re tall.

As the weather has been cooling off here, I've been wearing this jacket as a cover up to go on a jog in the cooler mornings. It's been working great -- it's not too thick to be hot and not too thin to be ineffective. The material is light, and it comes with a hood which I appreciate. I like the look of this jacket too. The color is nice, and I like the bright neon green/yellow athletic stripe running down the sleeves. The green and black look good together. The elastic around the arm cuffs are also solid. I can pull up my sleeves and not have to worry about the sleeves coming down. Overall, seems like a well constructed jacket! My only problem with it is that there are no zippers for the pockets. Don't expect to put your phone in the pockets while you run. And be careful even if you're just walking. I have a pretty big phone (6.8 inches) and I've had it fall out of my jacket pocket twice while walking around. My phone was fine, but it's a shame there isn't a button or zipper closure for the pockets.
