Bunches Up In Front
By Laurie S
Ranked #41 - Women's Down Jackets
January 11, 2008
I'm 5"3" and I weigh about 107lbs. I ordered both the xs and s sizes. I couldn't close the xs the s was very snug at the hip. I'm very slim though my hips are 35" so that's the widest part of me. I tried it on and walked 2 blocks when I noticed it was all bunched up in front. I had to return this jacket because of that. It also just started to rain when I stepped out. I wasa impressed that the water beaded up immediately. That's a great thing. In general the jacket did seem warm but my arms tend to get very cold and the arms didn't seem very warm but I've noticed that before in jackets and it always feels the same even when it's in the teens as well as the 30's. That might not be a problem for other women. I was dissappointed. Hope this helps someone.
