Gore Wear C3 Gore Windstopper Phantom Zip-Off Jacket - Men's reviews and deals for sale

Great Gear!

I just got this jacket as a gift, and I really love it. It is indeed VERY windproof, yet breathable and comfortable in use. I love the high visibility element, and the fact that the breast pocket has a slot to run the earphones through. Have not used it in wet conditions, but I know Gore will not disappoint me there. I have so many Gore Tex products that I trust them blindly… read more to be sufficient. The fit is very snug, so it fits best for people who are slim/fit

Great jacket with strange touches

First the jacket is great. The sizing for me was perfect. There is a little extra fabric, which I like for layering. The wind stopping abilities are really good, and the jacket is lighter than it seems like it's going to be. It's a quality product. Detractors are the left hand zipper (I may accidentally break the zipper before I finally retrain myself) And also the topmost part… read more of the collar where the zipper ends is cut upwards about a half inch or so, forming kind of a point, and I find this is always poking me, and I'm trying to bend it forward so it doesn't put push into my neck. I don't even know why this is there. Apart from these gripes I would buy the jacket and recommend it

Fit ruins nice garment

First the good: jacket is very well made and comfortable. Nice reflective accents. Adequate pockets. Stretchy. The bad: way too bulky for anything other than casual riding. Too much material in the sleeves, and too fat in the mid section. I am 6' 0" 185 lbs and ordered large. While the length of the jacket and sleeves were great I had to return it due to the aforementioned bulk.… read more Gore lists the jacket as a more relaxed fit (partially my fault) and they are not kidding. Additionally, the dual zippers on the sleeves are quite a pain to use. I will be purchasing the much more expensive Castelli Perfetto RoS Convertible instead.

Awesome!

Had to replace my beloved PI Barrier PRO after an accident and couldn’t have made a better choice. The C3 fits incredibly well, is windproof and almost completely waterproof as well as has a slight insulating later. Great on a cool or windy day or as an outer shell with 3 or 4 layers underneath. Love it!!
