If you like high quality and durability in a lightweight jacket, this achieves that objective. My original Boathouse jacket is over 20 years old and has been in constant use in the USA and in Europe. The original jacket was starting to get a little threadbare on the sleeves; but I got a complement about it two months ago!
The new jacket looks great. There are a few minor changes but the jacket performs precisely as it should. Its normal place is in the car. I make it a point not to leave the house without it and typically take it into restaurants and other environments in case the venue is cold or frozen.
I always include this jacket in my carry-on airline luggage. It does not take up much space and it is easy to access upon arrival at your destination. In very cold environments, I have put it over another jacket or layered clothing to break the wind and rain.
I treat this jacket with a high level of care. Its appearance is professional and comfortable. My review is not paid. I am an Eagle Scout, Veteran, and my occupation is a Forensic Engineer. When my phone rings, it is frequently a very serious or fatality situation requiring prompt response. I never leave without this jacket, rain or shine.
