I really like this jacket! Wind and water proof. It has a slim fit feel to it, not boxy. It's more of a shell than a coat with batting in it, so you can wear another layer underneath if it's cold out. Which I often do with coats. I'm 5'4", about 127 lbs, and I bought a medium. Love this jacket!!

Product is excellent.....delivery, well, did y'all send it from Venus or Mars?
For a few minutes outside while it was drizzling I felt wet and cold. It does not dry fast enough so you're just sitting there wet and cold.
The jacket looks nice but the fit is awkward , the sleeves are too tight and hard to roll up. But most importantly it's not a warm jacket the material gets cold inside and out. When I wear the jacket it doesn't hold in the warmth I'm still cold. The jacket has a slim fit but if you size up it sticks out at the bottom. I got it as a Christmas gift so I don't know how to return it.
I wear an XS in Duluth Women's clothing and ordered a Small in the berry color. So cute! Loved the color and the fabric when the jacket arrived. The fit was very odd and especially in comparison to other clothes I've worn from Duluth. The hips flared way out -- which I could put up with using the elastic cords at the hips. The sleeves, while pretty long, were really tight around the arms so that I couldn't move easily and the chest was tight as well -- I couldn't have anything but a shirt on underneath and was still uncomfortable. That's not the way I roll outdoors and gotta have some layers, so back it went. Customer service made it easy for me to do an exchange for a Medium, although my favorite berry color was no longer available. The medium has the same strange fit with pretty tight arms but now the hips are waaaaaay wide and the sleeves are super long. I used the elastic cords to pull in the hips and am not thrilled with the puffy look that ends up with, but I do like the fabric and the workmanship so I'm keeping this one. Would be awesome if the zipper went both directions so I could vent from the bottom, but that's not a must have for. me.
