You get what you pay for with Motorcycle gear.
This jacket is great. It feels and looks like it is worth every penny. With the thermal liner in it's super cozy. I haven't had it long enough to get rained on so I can't speak on it's waterproofing.
And now for the nitpicking. I only gave it 3 out of 5 for comfort because the collar is more protective than ergonomic. It is stiff and jams itself under your jaw when you look down. I also get some airflow through the neck. I wear a soft scarf and it solves both problems. Also the elbow armor see saws on my elbows when the thermal liner isn't installed. After a few hours the tips of my elbows are pretty tender and soar. Not as big of an issue when the thermal liner is in.
As far as a good winter jacket? absolutely. It keeps me warm without making me clammy. It has lots of armor, and lots of storage room. The venting is easy to open and close while riding. It has a ton of reflective elements. Overall a great jacket for me.
Middle TN isn't the great white north but it can get brutally cold here. My goal is to keep riding as long as there's traction. This jacket along with the GTX pants should help me achieve that with relative comfort and protection.

It works great!
I bought this jacket for my husband last December. For his commute he was looking for a textile jacket that was waterproof, had high visibility, and good for cold weather. As his wife I added a good protection to his list. We live in North California, so weather isn't always warm even in summer. At end of last year we drove to Bodega Bay. It was raining very hard and cold, but the jacket kept him dry and warm. (Only the tips of the sleeves got wet, but he thought it's because of the way he was wearing his groves.)
The jacket a bit pricy, but I think it's worth it. It took a while for me to decide to get the jacket since there were a lot of jackets had different features, chest protections, air bag, and so on…
I also bought a SAS-TEC back protector (Size: SC-1/12), but I haven't put it to the jacket yet. However, I definitely recommend to get a good back protection.
For the size, he tried on a REVIT! textile jacket at a shop, and XL fit well even if his normal cloth size is L.

Very well thought-out product.
The zippers work really well. They don't require one hand holding the jacket while the other pulls the zip. They're very smooth. I ride a BMW K1300S and was concerned about the way the air comes over the shield and down the neck of other jackets but this one seals-up very well. I upgraded to the SAS-TEC back protector and had read how others had trimmed the back protector to fit the jacket. Don't do that. The jacket has a second row of stitching that holds the smaller foam protector in place. By carefully removing the inner row of stitching, it opens the pocket up to an outer row that fits the SAS-TEC protector perfectly. If you're not handy with sewing stuff (like my wife is) I'd take it to a professional. Since the venting vents to the inner Gore-tex liner, it moves the air throughout the jacket more evenly than if it just vented straight to you. I've been comfortable in humid 86 degree weather with my wife blocking the rear vents.

Warm, Dry, Comfortable
I ordered my size according to my measurements, fits great. I rode today in 39 degrees and rain. I was perfectly dry and very warm with only a t-shirt under the jacket and liner.
