My fault for not reading the description from Backcountry carefully - this jacket is "Team Fit" from Burton, which means it is cut extra loose. I am 5'4", 125 lbs. and was swimming in the medium. The sleeves were super wide and extended past my fingertips. The collar on the vest stuck out a good 6" from my neck so would not have kept me warm. The thing is, when I closed the powder skirt it fit around my butt snugly, so they cut the jacket to a medium-sized woman, but the styling is such that it is supposed to look huge.Otherwise, the fabric and lines are really cool. The yellow is a banana-colored satin, not too shiny but very smooth, with great stitched lines. The vest and lining is also a great pattern. I really wanted to keep it, but am sending it back as I didn't want to look like a little girl lost in her mom's jacket.
