Ideal proportions, at last! By in motion from Portland, OR on 08/27/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Beautiful material, Durable, Good Cut, Versatile, Warm Best Uses: Bad Weather, Daily Use, Outdoor activities Describe Yourself: Athletic, Career, Casual, Classic Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Apparently I am the woman of strange proportions for whom this jacket was made (wide shoulders, long arms, slim torso). It is great to have a staple jacket like this fit my shoulders and arms without hanging loosely around my body. If you match this description and are looking for a great midweight jacket, your search is over!
By Renee the Skier from Westminster on 08/19/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Durable, Good Cut, Lightweight Best Uses: Daily Use, Travel Describe Yourself: Bargain Shopper, Casual, Classic, Eclectic, Trendy Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This light weight jacket has a flattering cut with a high collar and a long arm length. It looks great. But be warned, it's cut for someone with long arms having mostly an athletic build. I have very long arms, so the sleeves worked for me, having a length that hits between my wrist and fingers. I like this feature because the sleeves will keep my hands warm even if I don't wear gloves. The jacket will work for mild to cool temperatures during the summer, fall, and spring.
By Ranger Jane from Point Reyes Station, CA on 06/15/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Durable, Warm Describe Yourself: Bargain Shopper, Casual, Eclectic Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This jacket is solid, very well made. Love the outer fabric. I had to send back a medium, which I usually wear in jacket size, for a small/petite (sleeves VERY long). The small is a little more fitting than I like, but the sleeve length works.
By Chris from Overland Park, KS on 06/02/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Durable, Versatile, Warm Best Uses: Daily Use, Going Out Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: The jacket is cut long in the sleeves and the size I usually wear was tight in the bust. Loved the style of the jacket...just wasn't cut the best. Regretfully can not recommend the jacket since I had to send back both the sizes I tried.
By Kate from Northampton, MA on 05/19/2008 Describe Yourself: Bargain Shopper, Career, Casual Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Wouldn't really know too much about this jacket since I tried it on only once and found that the sleeves were way too long (by at least 8"). It appeared to be made for a woman of strange proportions. I had eyed this item in the catalog for a long time before deciding to splurge and was disappointed because it had seemed so ideal for what I wanted. The fit was absolutely wrong and on top of that I had to pay so much to ship the darned thing back. Wish it had said something in the description about the over-sized sleeves: I can't imagine it fitting anyone well.
Nice wieght and style w/ a problem By Peg the hiker from Springfield, OR on 04/04/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Good Cut, Warm Best Uses: Daily Use, Travel Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: It's nice other than the sleeve length. I almost sent it back but decided to hem up the sleeves. It's just right now.
