Ex Officio Get'n Away Jacket (For Women)

I like the coat. It packs well and I will be taking it on trips.

I took this jacket on a week long vacation to two European cities and practically wore it all the time. Had to put it on a concrete bench and sit on it for two hrs, and it still came out without a wrinkle. The fit is a little odd, but the belts are removable, and the jacket actually looked good with almost all my pants and tops. Cool fabric- not too warm, not too cold. Perfect for spring/summer travel.

Not sure how it will be repeling water. It is thin, not lined, but nice pockets.

I wish it were an inch or two shorter in the torso-- another reviewer said the same. There's a belt (removable) which ties in front-- I like the look in a sense, but it does make the sides stick out in a strange, skirtlike way. A bit too much fabric there. However, it's still the closest I've come to the perfect travel jacket-- two long chest pockets in front (vertical entry), large pouch pockets below, good for hands or holding a fair amt. of travel stuff (lipstick, phone etc). NOT a raincoat, but a decent cotton/poly jacket for cool nights and general travel. Zipper AND snaps in front, snaps at cuffs so you can roll them back.

I have received many compliments on this jacket already. Nifty features such as pockets on the bodice and easy to snap snaps.
