Decent Jacket for a fair price
I bought the jacket on sale.
Overall, the jacket looks really good, and it mostly has great features.
In terms of quality, it doesn't feel as good as a high-end jacket of known brands for a similar price (without the sale). However, it is worth noting that, at least from the 7 days I wore it last season in Japan, it did a great job of keeping me dry.
In terms of sizing, I usually wear size S or M, depending on the brand and the style I'm aiming for. The TREW size guide suggested an XS for me, I ordered a Small, and I would say it fits pretty good, but I wouldn't mind it being a bit larger (I like a very relaxed fit).
The biggest disappointment for me in the jacket is the sleeves - they should be wider at the end. I like putting my jacket over my mittens, and it's almost impossible, requiring quite the effort.
Another thing I'm personally missing is having 2 zippers on the main zipper of the jacket. Make it easy when going to the toilet or wanting to open/close the snow skirt. This jacket only has 1 zipper.
Overall, a decent jacket, great colors and look, and good water resistance.
