I ordered the Flair Hooded Jacket after falling in love with the Marmot Solitude Hooded Fleece Jacket. I ordered a Small in the Persian Red color; I typically wear a x-small or small in clothing and my size small Solitude fleece fits perfectly. The Flair I ordered turned out to be super tight and short in the torso and sleeves. I'm 5'6" and weigh 130 w/ 34C... EVERY part of this fleece looked over stuffed with my body; I looked 20 pounds heavier.

speaking of stuffed, the Persian Red color is pretty awful. The high-pile fleece combined with the mentioned color made me look like a stuffed animal. Think Elmo. The color is much brighter than depicted in the photo (at least on my screen...)

long story short, I may order this fleece again but in another color and a larger size . I suppose I'd err on the side of going a size up... If it wasn't for the price, I'd order another Solitude Fleece.
