Jacket? Well .....
Beautifully made from nice materials - but the fit just doesn’t work as a jacket, for me at least.
I ordered a medium as per the sizing guide - I fall bang in the middle of the chest and waist measurements given. The material is stretchy, so I was able to get the jacket on over a thin jersey, but it was WAY too tight, especially around the neck. I swapped the jersey for a thin base layer, same issue. I tried without anything underneath- even then, a smidge too tight.
It would make a decent long sleeve jersey, but as a jacket? No. Returned, so I can’t comment on warmth or water resistance.

Quality jacket
This jacket oozes quality. The fit and feel is more like a jersey, the cut and fit are spot on (no excess material anywhere). The use is like a Gabba, but this jacket feels more wind resistant and has even less bulk.
You can tell that a lot of thought has gone into this item - the placement of the reflective shoulder patches is spot on once on the bike, and the zipped pocket is accessible on the move.
Temperature wise I have used it at around 8 degrees so far with a single base layer (on harder effort rides), but I know we all feel the cold differently.

Fantastic winter jacket
I’m 5’9†and 70kg, and the Small is a perfect fit.
Worn at 5°C with a winter long sleeve base layer, I was just the right temperature. Keeps the wind out, and breathes well at the back and under the arms. The zip is easy to grab with winter gloves. The silicone grabbers on the rear lower hem keep the jacket well positioned, and prevents it riding up. Rear pockets are well placed for easy acces while riding. I love the hi viz patterns on the arms and back too

Sizing issues and no coat hook
For me jacket sizes should include the expectation that the user is going to wear something underneath. Unfortunately cycle brands seemed to have missed the memo that the rest of the industry has been aware of since the dawn of time. Also another issue not exclusive to lecol is that there is no hook to hang the jacket up with. Are cyclists unaware of their usage?
Other than that does what it says on the tin, though for the price would be nice if it was perfect.

Excellent support from Le Col
I"d bought this jacket but, as noted by other reviewers, found that I needed to size up. Returned it by post and Le Col dealt with it really swiftly - the replacement arrived within days. They didn"t mind my changing the jacket for a jersey, no questions asked (review to follow and it"s a really comfy jersey).

Nice jacket strange breathability
Jacket is beautiful and well made. Go 1-2 sizes larger as very small fit.
Both times I have ridden with it in the cold have ended up will all base layers soaked with sweat.
Never had this before and didn’t feel hot on the ride. Feels as through it traps all the moisture inside the jacket. Is this normal?

Winter Goodies
Le Col have surpassed themselves again. This is my first winter jacket that is not only extremely light but provides an excellent amount of wind and rain protection whilst still staying breathable. The attention to detail on the cut is second to none. Winter riding just became a lot more bearable.
