Comfortable, warm, order one size up
This jacket came in a nice zip up bag for transport and storage. After reading some reviews, I decided to order one size larger than I normally do, this decision would turn out to be a very good one. I ordered the 2xl and it fit like a very slightly oversized xl, I can definitely tell that an xl in this size wouldve been way too small by this fit. By itself, it does a good job of helping keep body heat stored on the torso and is pretty comfortable to wear when walking/working outdoors on a colder fall/winter day. The addition of the heating unit allows for some semi comfortable sitting in an outside setting of about 40°. The included rechargeable battery pack keeps the jacket heated for about 4 hours, and helps maintain the body heat rather than burning you up. The battery is about palm sized and rests in an inside pocket just above the left hip. When you first wear the jacket, the thickness of the battery pack is rather noticeable but not too annoying and is something you get used to and eventually forget about. The battery pack itself is rechargeable via a USB C input, and can double as a power bank thanks to a USB female output port. This is if you want to sacrifice your heating element of the jacket for charging your device. Even with the battery inside the jacket, it's still pretty light weight and not a burden to wear. Overall, it's a pretty nice jacket that should help keep you warm!
