Fit

The 3D jacket has a tailored long fit, the arm lengths are right where I like them, and it has enough room to layer under but you don’t get a baggy look at all. It feels lighter and moves much easier than normal Gore-Tex because of the stretch liner that it has and it feels light even though it has 60g of insulation.

Construction

Seems very well made, should hold up through a lot of laps and seasons.

Hood

The Fixed contoured hood that fits great over a helmet and leaves enough room for turning your head while riding.

Insulation/Warmth

The 3D Stretch jacket comes with 60g of Primaloft Gold Insulation that feels light and should keep you plenty warm.

Waterproofing

The 3D Stretch Jacket is a 2 layer Gore-Tex that is around 28k waterproofing that should keep you nice and dry even on those soggy storm days.

Breathability

20k breathability

Packability

Normal packability, it is pretty light but don’t think it is made to pack down too compact.

Overall

If you are looking for a higher end jacket that can hang in most storm situations with the waterproof and windproof power of Gore-Tex then the Volcom 3D Stretch Jacket would be a good choice. The 60g of insulation will keep you warm but you can also layer up if you need to.
