Probably
You get what you pay for, OP
It's not a function of finding the best deal; if you're willing to make compromises then you have to deal with the consequences
You could get a $300 Battenwear anorak or a $500 Barbour x White Mountaineering anorak but the $15 UO - which is basically a tarp shaped like an anorak - might be fine for you

And please don't reply with an attempt at justifying your purchase because every newfag who starts a thread asking about the cheapest piece of clothing he can find will always think in his mind that it's the best deal. It never is

It's actually $94, so I was hoping there might be some quality there.
Thanks though, I'll check out those other brands.

UO is a retailer. the brand for the jacket is CPO.

That said, alot of brands are sold exclusively under UO and tend to be cheapo.

It's shit, not better than pacsun. They get a few cool collabs in every now and again but it just feels like a glorified department store for the youth

I bought an Adidas windbreaker a few years ago that meets this description. Looks nice as fuck but the material is horrible
Their newer jackets are so much better

I actually own this exact anorak. It's pretty damn nice and I would buy it again if given the choice. Like others have said with its pricepoint it's not going to have the same functionality as a say 300 dollar jacket but it has worked great for me as a spring/summer jacket and doesn't feel cheap.

Hows the fit? I ride the line between small/medium, which would work better?
