soft, fits fine

By Backcountry.com Employee November 3, 2008

I am tall (5' 9") with a B-ish bust and long arms, and usually wear a medium top. I bought a medium, and it suits me fine. However, this top is form-fitting; I could be comfortable in a large, too. And I can see how it could be too tight in the chest for someone better-endowed than me. The fabric feels silky and soft and doesn't smell after wearing for a few days. It itches a touch when I just put it on, which doesn't bug me, but it might bother someone who's sensitive. I bought it for snowboarding and camping/backpacking. My only complaint is that when I washed it, the fabric panels shrank just a tad, which caused the front zipper to get pulled to the left. It's barely perceptible (it was two days before I noticed), but ... maybe this top should be hand-washed?
