By Internet Shopaholic from Los Angeles, CA on 11/17/2008 Describe Yourself: Casual Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a very well constructed jacket, but the sleeves do have an odd cut. Not just the length (which is easy to fix by folding the cuff), but where the sleeves are attached. The lining is soft, but the jacket itself is on the stiff side.
Nice Design, Tight Fabric and Too Big ! By MK from Bozeman, MT on 10/09/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Durable, Good Cut, Versatile, Warm Describe Yourself: Casual Dresser Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Waaaay back in distant memory I recall Mountain Hardwear making women's jackets in sizes, like Isis: 4, 6, 8...and so on. Or at least I think they did. Unfortunately I am cursed with being in between a small and a medium with this and many other popular brands.
As other reviewers comment, the sleeves are disproportionately long. But, some prefer that so you don't expose wrists when arms are extended up or out on handlebars.
Anyway, I'll sadly be returning it, and back to my quest for a stylish Windpro fleece jacket I can wear about town. No doubt the S would be too tight under my armpits. Never fails.
Good luck!
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!
