Very bright when direct light is on it.
As the winter months are on us, and the daylight hours are shorter, I decided to buy this jacket for my cycling commute. I was looking at this jacket on and off during the start of the year and always put it off. Yet over the year I've managed to pick up the gloves during a sale, and then finally decided to buy this jacket. I did originally have a few other reflective jackets in my basket, and even tried on some similar jackets at Evans Cycles. This one is a far better construction, as these jackets do get hot whilst wearing them – but this one has added underarm ventilation.I've now been wearing this on my commute for the last month, as it has been very helpful in the evenings during the dark ride home from work. Where this jacket slightly falls down is wearing it either during the early mornings when the light is quite murky or grey, or during the middle of the day. The material colour does tend to blend in with the road, but as long as you also have a couple of good lights on your front and rear of your bike, then it is no different to wearing any other non high visibility jacket.I originally bought it in a size Medium, but the arms were comically long. I replaced it when a Small size. The arm sit just right, and so does the back of the jacket just covering my behind. Even though it is a Small size, if still feels very loose around the chest, but I don't mind this, as if I do need to layer up in the colder months, I still have the option.Also, I've now cycled in pouring rain a couple of times, and I was kept dry. The fabric is slightly thin, so you will feel the cold on your arm – that's if you are like me and only ride with a t-shirt underneath.All in all, this jacket will be getting a full use over the winter/darker months until I choose to go back to my spring/summer riding jacket.

Highly reflective
Highly reflective jacket. Be seen in the dark. Pretty waterproof, although if you have a back pack and commuting over 20mins you'll probably sweat more, I usually ride with the arm vents open. Only problem, cosmetically after 3 months the logos came off. The 360+ is better than the basic 360, fabric more flexible and so far all intact around the cuffs and neck. Worth the money to be visible.

Cool reflective in the dark
I ordered one of those reflective jackets for my commute ride to work and back. ( a colleague talked about it)It`s useful, I am more confident during my dark rides, it looks good enough for rainy days too. I used it for a run too but I wouldn`t recommend it if the temperature is not low.Overall, it`s a good jacket for winter.Breathability could be better but I guess then it would not be good for heavy rains.First I ordered XL, but it was a bit big so I ordered a large one. I believe the large is perfect for me( I am 6.2 feet tall, sporty style).I tried another jacket too( red color from proviz) but I didn`t feel it was as good reflective as this one.If you want a proviz jacket because of the reflective material then I suggest this one. Otherwise, other colors like in blue or red, they are cooler, stylish. I would keep the red one if it wouldn`t be pricy .

Very warm, waterprrof and lights up like a Christmas Tree when car lights hit it
I had the original version of this jacket and loved it. Only problem was I had an accident back in October on my bike and badly broke my elbow and in the process I got a massive rip up the left sleeve.Two operations and some physio later and I'm back on the bike and I had no hesitation in buying this new version. It's great for the winter months as it keeps you very warm but you can open the vents under the arms if it's raining and warm (which I experienced first hand with last weeks thunder storms!!) and the rain doesn't get in at all.This has more of a tailored fit and it's very noticeable compared to the original version but in a good way. The end of the sleeves has been redesigned and is a angled so it's bit longer at the top and the Velcro fasteners slightly moved which works a lot better in keeping the cold out , and when it's raining they tightly fit around my Proviz waterproof gloves creating a complete waterproof seal.I wanted to get the new red CRS 360+ version but I could not justify an extra £50 just to have the exact same coat in a different color.I am very happy with this jacket and cannot recommend it enough.

Amazing Hi-viz
I bought this for early morning dog walking, as it is the best provide in terms of waterproofing and breathability. Had to sacrifice a hood though. Looked at the walking jacket with hood and running jacket, but neither had the same performance surprisingly. Very comfortable and fit as expected. Brilliant visibility.

Visible but breathable
Unbreathable and not waterproof. When riding in the rain but arms are drenched after the ride.... can only use it if I can change clothes at destination....

This jacket is really good, it is light weight
This jacket is really good, it is light weight, easy to pack away when not in use and reflects light really well. One time it was all i could rely on as i was cycling at night from finishing work and i realised i forgot to bring my bike lights. An absolute life saver! It is fairly breathable but i do tend to sweat a bit when riding moderately hard.

Not worth the price, poor quality.
The zip broke was already damaged on first use. Took it to work in a bag, put it on for the cycle home and the bottom of the zip wouldn't stay secure. The plastic bobble that holds it in place was missing, see the photograph.Other reviews complained about it being too warm and i'm sure it is when it actually closes!If you want to be seen this is great, no exaggeration it's really really visible and waterproofing works but I can't say i've been able to test it other than with a walk to the bike shed.
