Hey,I am male, and this jacket would fit perfect (size L), except for the waist and sleeve. the sleeve is not that big of a problem, but the waist is. If I would buy an XL, the only thing, that is way to big is the hip. If there would be a rubber band or an elastic hem cord, I would buy the jacket in XL, if not, I would buy it in L. So, my questions are:1. Does this jacket have an elastic hem cord?2. Which fabric is on the inside? ( If fleece, is it brushed like the outside?)I would appreciate your help.Thank you!

I own 3 of these! 1) There is no rubber band or elastic hem cord on the bottom. The sizing is difficult to determine (so it would be best to try it on at REI stores, if you can). I'm a 5'5" female, 132 lbs, who fits into size 6-10 pants, borderline S/M shirts. A small is just right with a long-sleeve t-shirt underneath. I'd have to buy a medium if I want to put any bulk underneath it. Answer #2: Front and back fabric is the same soft fleece (not lined), except where the front zippered pockets are (they are lined inside with a thin, soft fleece-like fabric, and the back of the pockets facing your skin are nylon). It's nice to have the soft backing behind the zipper area, too. Beware: This sheds, but it washes well, and it SO worth it! I wear a different one to the office every day.
