Ok, I'll be the first to admit that I am a big fan of LL Bean. I'll also admit that I didn't pay list price for the jacket. Nowhere near it. This was a somewhat proactive, or maybe impulse, purchase for three reasons. The first was for winter riding when I get a Ural. The second was because it fit. The third, because it was on the clearance rack at the LL Bean Outlet in Bangor, ME.

OK, maybe that was the first reason.

This is one warm jacket. Maybe too warm for late April morning rides. The fit is good and it is most definitely wind proof. Not 100% sold on the collar, but it does keep my neck warm. Only other gripe is that the zipper is a bit stiff, but I expect that to loosen up with use.

It figures that this was probably the last day I'll wear it before I need it again.
