Love It!

My favorite running jacket of all time. I LOVE the length. Please make more like this! Visibility is great. Worn running with a tank top from 35 - 65 degrees and been just fine. So perfect. Love the feel of the material too.

Love it. Fits great. Comfortable. Cars see me!!!

Early Morning Runner's Need This Jacket!

Run in the very early morning hours with my wife and bought this for her and she loves it. Highly recommend. Need to buy me one now.

I like the reflectiveness during the early morning hours. Drivers are able to see me better and comment that they can see me!

Nice Weight & Material. Good Reflective Style For The Shorter Days.

It looks sharp with great reflective qualities as the days grow shorter. Night weight & breathabilty.

Carbonite Jacket

Love the color and that I can be seen in the dark. I am between a medium and large and went with large. Perfect fit.

Keeping You Safe

Sizing is small, as I always get size M, I had to return for an L. Easy to be seen in the dark. Light weight, but enough to keep out wind.

Fit Was Not Expected

I got this for its hi viz aspects but when I received it I didn’t like the fit. The medium was quite small, and it was also cropped. It didn’t feel like it would be comfortable for running and that it wouldn’t move with you. I have an older Brooks running jacket that I love so I’m going back to the old one!

Best Winter Lightweight Jacket

Love this jacket. It is lightweight and warm. Perfect on cold mornings over the dash 1/4 zip top. The jacket is true to size. I have followed advice in reviews about some brooks clothing being quite small. I got this in a small and find it just right.

Carbonite Jacket 10/10

I just received the Carbonite Jacket and I am in love! It fits so well, not too tight, the sleeves aren’t too short, the material is soft and stretchy and I think I will be able to easily layer underneath it. It has 3 zipper pockets and I love that the hood fastens down so it’s nice secure while you are running. It is stylish and if drivers don’t see you, I’d be shocked! It is a great and safe addition to my running wardrobe.

Great Design And Visibility! I Like Everything About This Jacket!

I rarely wear a jacket for running because the weather is typically moderate where I live (Seattle). I was really looking forward to wearing this jacket on a run, though, because I was excited about both the design and the great visibility/reflectivity. The material feels high quality and durable. The two small snaps that allow for more breathability is something I've been waiting years for someone to construct, so THANK YOU for this! The design of the arm sleeves is great. They're long enough to be protective without being too long or getting in the way. Some others don't seem to like the length of the jacket, but I like it because it's just long enough to hit the top of my hips and protect me from the elements while still providing good air flow and breathability so I don't overheat and get too sweaty inside the jacket. It also makes it easier to wear a waist light when it's dark out without the jacket covering it up or having to wear it over the jacket, which loses a significant part of the breathability and air flow. Being able to roll up the hood is great as I don't run while wearing a hood, but it's nice to have it there for pre- or post-run cover. I like the pockets, especially the additional one up higher, on the chest. One thing I'd like to see done differently in the future is to make it packable like the Canopy jacket is/was (I liked it better when the Canopy jacket packed into the pocket and had the elastic strap to attach to your arm. So much easier to run with it that way rather than the "backpack" style). Sometimes while running the weather improves or you get too warm and no longer need to be wearing the jacket. This would provide an option other than tying it around one's waist, which never works/stays very well. I typically wear a small or medium shirt (I'm a shmedium) and always wear a medium in jackets. I got a medium in this jacket and the fit feels just right.

Plus And Minus

I bought the jacket without a hood. I really like the parts that illuminate when light shines on them, and I feel safer at dusk when I wear this. Unfortunately, I find that when my performance shirt wicks moisture away, the jacket traps it and the inside of the jacket becomes damp. This is not pleasant. So I'll keep taking it with me and trying to be strategic about wearing it so that I'm as comfortable as possible. I'm a walker who averages 17-18 min/mile (or less in cooler weather).

Small

I generally wear a medium, however I don't think even a large would fit propertly in this jacket. Overall fit is small. It is also short, barely came to my waist. Very disappointing.
