I recently bought the Retro X in the midst of a fridgid winter here in Buffalo, NY. Don't be fooled by the thin feel and look of the jacket, for this is one of the warmest jackets I have ever warn!

It looks purple in the sun, and grey indoors. Overall i don't believe that you can buy a better jacket for the money!

I have also purchased the R4, however for some reason, I do not find it as warm, nor like it as much as the Retro-X. I am now s
