1. Overall Feel of the Jacket

After applying for the Codoon review equipment, I was fortunate to be selected. After a few days of waiting, the jacket arrived by courier, and it was very light.

Upon opening the package, the Codoon Blue was quite dazzling. I didn't choose black because my height is a disadvantage, and black would make me look smaller, so I chose blue. Mainly to stand out while running...

Next, I checked the details of the jacket. Since it's a jacket, a zipper is essential. This jacket has a protective design at the zipper neckline to prevent the zipper from pinching the skin or chafing during long runs. The lining on the shoulders, back, and upper arms is laminated to prevent wind and cold air from entering. There are zippered pockets on both sides, and the cuffs are designed to be windproof, with thumbholes.

Trying it on to see how the size and appearance fit, for my 63kg weight, the M size is just right.

2. Running Test

Date: February 26

Weather Conditions: 3° to 3°, cloudy

Humidity: 55%

Wind Force: Level 3

Location: Xishan Scenic Avenue

It's already the Spring Festival, but this year we encountered a cold snap. The spring in Jiangnan is colder and more humid than in the north, making it more uncomfortable. After resting for 1.5 hours post-dinner, I put on the jacket and headed to the scenic avenue. The first kilometer was a slow run, and the cold night wind brushed against me, but I didn't feel cold, indicating that the jacket's sealing is quite good.

Arrived at the district government running gathering spot, took 2 photos. Warmed up for 5 minutes, then started running.

Ran nearly 15 kilometers, not at a slow pace. During the run, there was no discomfort in arm movement. Although the real-time temperature was only a few degrees, and occasionally cold wind blew, I didn't feel cold at all, indicating the jacket's excellent windproof performance. Additionally, the jacket's light weight makes it very suitable for running.

3. Summary

The jacket is overall decent, with good color, size, workmanship, and tailoring. For a price of around a hundred yuan, the cost-performance ratio is acceptable.

Regarding the cuffs, for more professional runners, this design might be redundant as it makes it difficult to check the watch during the run.
