Very cute and sporty

I got this jacket for a good deal on S&C, and it's pretty much exactly what I was hoping for - a stylish jacket that was warm without being bulky. Plus, I didn't want to sacrifice my "outdoorsy" nature just for fashion. This jacket pretty much hits all these points. It has a great, slim fit (I'm 5'7'', 130, and got a medium, and it fits perfectly), it has a good layer of poly for insulation, plus rip stop nylon for water-resistance, warm pockets, is mp3-player compatible, and has a very stylish pea-coat look. The top of the jacket snaps, rather than buttons, up to the top of the neck, which will be quick and convenient for windy days. I got the new taupe color, which is a little darker than I anticipated (it actually looks almost black), and it runs a tad shorter than I anticipated, but not so much that I'd send it back - just be warned if you have a long torso, which I don't.
Note: it has 2 TNF logos, on the chest and the back of the left shoulder - NOT the cuff as depicted in the picture - which definitely isn't subtle, but I don't mind it because it maintains an outdoorsy look whether you're dressing it up or down. I'm looking forward to using it this winter!
