The jacket has its pros and cons, but overall it's very average. Pros: - Velcro on the hood, necessary for adjustment when wearing a hat and essential for cycling (the hood doesn't slip over your eyes) - Foam visor on the hood, a little detail that really helps keep drizzle off your face. - Four pockets (not three as described. The inner ones do not have zippers) - The material really blocks the wind while still being breathable. Cons: - This jacket is very thin. No matter what kind of uber insulator was put in, it won't keep you warm in winter. After testing – you can use it at about +5°C with low activity, around 0°C with moderate activity (gentle cycling/walking), or -5°C when hiking. Of course, you must wear a thick thermal undershirt with long sleeves underneath. - No drawstring at the bottom, so it lets in drafts :( - The wind flap on the main zipper is only on the top 20 cm, not the full length. Seriously? - The zipper doesn't have an anti-pinch tape and regularly gets stuck. Overall: a mid-range product for autumn, overpriced by about 150 PLN.

Highlander Outdoor Lewis Insulated Jacket - Forest Green
Lightweight quilted jacket with a hood and a high collar delivers effective wind protection and ensures comfort during colder conditions. Perfect for outdoor pursuits in low temperatures and ideal for expeditions in the field.
Durable nylon fabric, Tecloft insulation
Crafted from durable 380T nylon, the jacket delivers robust wind protection while maintaining excellent thermal performance, courtesy of the high-quality Tecloft insulation. Distinguished by its low weight, superior heat retention, and outstanding compressibility, the synthetic Tecloft fill replicates the insulating properties of natural down, yet surpasses it in moisture resistance. Warmth remains uncompromised even in damp environments, making this jacket a reliable companion for outdoor enthusiasts who venture into variable weather conditions.
Quilted construction combined with a stand-up collar promotes optimal distribution of insulation, while elastic inserts under the arms enhance mobility and ventilation.
Minimal packed volume allows for effortless storage in a backpack. The compact dimensions and featherweight design provide unmatched portability, suiting extended treks where minimizing luggage size and mass is paramount.
Hood with visor, elastic cuffs
A zipper serves as the primary closure, safeguarded by a cover that helps prevent accidental chafing. The Lewis model features a high collar, providing effective protection for the neck against low temperatures. Elastic cuffs and an extended back at the hem ensure superior retention of body heat. For additional protection, the jacket includes an adjustable hood with a visor, shielding the head from the cold. The hood's fit can be easily customized to accommodate either a climbing helmet or a thick woolen cap.
3 practical pockets
The jacket features two hip pockets with soft fleece lining as well as an internal pocket designed for carrying a map. All pockets are secured with zippers. Oversized zipper pulls allow for easy access even when wearing gloves.
One of the hip pockets comes with an elastic safety cord, ensuring secure storage for keys or other valuables during movement.
