When I wear this jacket I feel like I can take on the world. Love how durable and dense the fabric, but it also feels soft and cozy and the thermal layer is warm but really low-profile. Lots of useful details – pockets are so huge I could stuff them with stacks of paperback novels, snap buttons are a really luxe and helpful upgrade.
Sizing notes: I'm a 27 waist, 30C bust and a little over 5'3" and my size according to the chart would have been a XS, which would have fit nicely for NOT layering. But I purchased a Small on Dovetail's advice in order to layer a fleece underneath in the winter, and also to get a slightly longer sleeve, and I'm happy to have sized up. It also still looks structured and fitting at the shoulder, despite being 1/2 inch wider than the XS.
