When I zipped it up, it was skin tight. Good quality fabric, cut, etc, but runs way too small. Rating: 3 / 5 I am a 12/14, ordered an XL which is supposed to fit 16/18.

Certainly more blue than in the picture. <br /> <br />MATERIALS: I haven't gotten to use it enough to comment on durability. Zipper doesn't seem to be cheap, though. The outer fabric, itself, is nice, but it is more slick than most soft shells. Nice mico-fleece lining. <br /> <br />BOTTOM LINE: <br />This jacket was a great buy for the $30 Deal of the Day price. Not worth retail. Rating: 3 / 5 FIRST IMPRESSIONS:

Size fits as expected

Sleeve length substantial (I’m 5’11″)

Odd tapering (hips flare out too much)

Tapering is too high up for me

Stiff collar

COLOR: I got the gray, but it is more blue than gray. Certainly more blue than in the picture.

MATERIALS: I haven’t gotten to use it enough to comment on durability. Zipper doesn’t seem to be cheap, though. The outer fabric, itself, is nice, but it is more slick than most soft shells. Nice mico-fleece lining.

BOTTOM LINE:

This jacket was a great buy for the $30 Deal of the Day price. Not worth retail.
