cute and comfy

Simple Satire Hemp Shoe - Women's

Simple Satire Hemp Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 15, 2009

These are awesome shoes, both cute and comfy. As another reviewer noted, they look great with pants or with shorts. They're a little slick on ice, so if you're in a winter environment be careful, but they're as good as any other shoe. I wear a 7.5 and found them to be true to size.

true to size

Backcountry.com Stoic 2.0 Shell - Women's

Backcountry.com Stoic 2.0 Shell - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 December 8, 2009

Other people recommend to order a size up, but I found the medium to fit true to size to layer a down sweater underneath. (But it gets pretty poofy if I layer my very fluffy down vest underneath.) The fit is really flattering and both the sleeves and the torso are long enough to prevent drafts. The hood is cavernous (though probably not sized for a ski helmet) but has good adjustment. My only concern is that the hardware isn't very burly; I'm worried that the zippers or the drawcords will break. But the tradeoff is the weight, which I'm willing to sacrifice for. All in all I really like this coat.

great fit

Stoic Luft Down Insulated Sweater - Women's

Stoic Luft Down Insulated Sweater - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 December 2, 2009

This jacket had a great fit for me (5'7", 130 lbs, small chest, big hips). It was cozy and warm, and had nice long sleeves. A plus I haven't seen on other down sweaters is that this jacket has spandex around the cuffs that hug your wrists to prevent drafts up the arms. Not sure how durable the spandex will be over the long haul, but out of the bag it's really nice. As others have noted, you can see some dark feathers through the very thin shell fabric (in the jade color), but the flattering shape, super light weight, and coziness outweigh the spots for me. Just not crazy about the white zipper.

sizing

Rating for this product: 3 December 2, 2009

I ordered a small but definitely needed a medium. (I'm 5'7" 130lbs small on top and big hips.) The small was too snug through the hips and made the jacket ride up a little. Also, I found the small to be too short. On the plus side, the sleeves are long, which is nice.

liked it okay, but...

Stoic Bombshell Jacket - Women's

Stoic Bombshell Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 December 2, 2009

This jacket was okay, but I returned it for a couple of reasons. I wasn't crazy about the white zipper in the pictures, and it didn't win me over in person either. Also, the fit was a little funky for me. (I'm 5'7", 130lbs, small on top with big hips.) There's a very defined hourglass shape to the jacket, which is good, but it's actually a little TOO defined and flares out too far on the bottom (even with my big hips). It just made me look huge. The pros: definitely lightweight, great long sleeves, and seemed to be good construction. Oh well.
