"Bought this a few months ago and use it regularly.
Although I am 5'6" I bought the large size as this needs to be worn over other clothes. The sleeves seemed slightly long, but in use this hasn't been any problem.
The jacket is windproof and warm in the cold weather. The high neck, which can be closed with the velcro strips, is also good for keeping out cold and rain. I haven't tested it in heavy rain, but it is certainly showerproof. In warm weather it is obviously breathable and is pleasant to wear.
The jacket is an extremely bright orange, which I hope increases my daytime visibility. However the reflective strips are very narrow and I am not sure how effective these are in the dark. Dare2b is a trademark of Regatta Ltd."

Pros: visibility, fit and style, waterproofness, lightweight
Cons: could be better ventilated
"I bought this during the recent 25% off promo. The jacket is lightweight, well cut, waterproof and comfortable. It looks good on and has adjustment options in the right places. In terms of hi-viz which is why I bought it, it works. The orange colour is very bright and combined with the reflective markings makes you really stand out. Also, the orange colour makes a nice change from all the yellow hi-viz that you see these days. I now feel safer on the road as its clear that drivers and pedestrians can see me coming. I've been asked about it from mates who commute and I've recommended it without hesitation.
One slight improvement would be to add slits below the armpits and across the top of the back to better ventilate inside as it doesnt breath as well as other jackets I've owned.
In summary, it will make you very visible and keeps you nice and dry."

Pros: visibility
Cons: waterproofness
"Bought this jacket with intention of it been waterproof and visible for tour of europe.
It is certainly visible and well made but waterproof it isn't!
On 2 seperate wet days it let water through all over after an hour or so leaving me feeling very cold. I had a camera in the front pocket which was also saturated. Very disappointed.
Also felt clammy when you start to get hot and sweaty."
