Comments about Men's Typhoon Jacket:
Fit is just a little too tight, I wear 2x all the time, usually loose, this is just a smidge too small, 5'11", 270 lbs, 52 jacket size, but more like a 50 now.

I bought a similar jacket elsewhere but returned and purchased this one. Fit is great and it provides protection from the elements without being too stiff or causing moisture proplems.

Comments about Men's Typhoon Jacket:
Wife loves it as perfect alternative to heavy foul weather gear. She also loves the pink color offered in the women's sizes. Thank you West Marine for offering products specifically for women. Will be great to use on the boat and dinghy for cool/windy/damp mornings and evenings. Sitting on the fence about having no hood. Will be nice to not have the bulk when there is no rain. Will probably miss a hood when weather gets wet, especially out in the open on the dinghy.
