My husband, brother and my brother in law all have this jacket and raved about it...so I just had to get one for myself. They were right it is a fantastic jacket that I love! I wear it to travel and it is so comfortable. Can't go wrong for the price either. Worth the money.
The jacket is fitted so if you don't like fitted order a size up.
Versitale jacket will suprise you!

I wear this jacket everywhere. I had an ems jacket years ago that was very similar, the only thing that I really don't like about this jacket is that it goes up in the front. Being a woman with a slightly larger chest it makes the jacket even shorter which is not attractive or comfortable. I do love that the sleeves are longer though.

I like the 4 way stretch of the fabric. It lets me contort into all sorts of poritions and stretches in living my daily life. However, when I stretch upwards, the front bottom of my jacket comes up past my navel. Winter gear pants are high enough no to expose bare skin but my jeans are definitely at risk of flasking midriff. Solution: don't reach over your SUV in a blizzard. Otherwise it's a great jacket. The colors seahorse and odyssey pink are nice, as ordinary black gets so boring.
I intend to use it by itself as an outer layer or under my heavy winter jacket as a middle layer.

Great Jacket. Only after I bought it did I notice how many other people have the jacket and have told me how great it is. Well worth the price. I recently traveled with it and loved the fact that it was lightweight and it kept me warm throughout the day.

Got this wonderful jacket at a rock bottom price because of the color - which I happen to think is ideal for misty morning runs. Love it so much I want to wear it all the time. Get the impression it will improve with wearing and washing.
Much too large for a women's size small

This coat was very inviting, however when I tried it on, it did not fit well. The shoulders and arms were baggy and ill-fitting and the waist was short. Too bad, it has nice look to it & would be versatile.
bought one for myself, mom, sister....
