John Partridge Panther Jacket (For Women)

I'm glad to have this jacket, which is good for those times of year when the weather is neither ice-cold nor not yet warm enough for just a windbreaker. I bought the curry/saffron color and it brightens gloomy Ohio winter days. (This is a functional jacket--not a glamorous one.)

Nice quality coat. It's a heavy jacket built well which is hard to find, but it is really short. It could use at least six more inches in length. I had to send it back, bummer.

This jacket is strictly functional--the weight is nice for this time of year (still pretty chilly, but not cold enough for down). The color choices are a nice departure from winter blacks and browns. I found the fit to be a bit peculiar--the shoulders and hood are large, but the hip is snug. The sleeves are long, but I have long arms, so that's a plus. The zipper is the biggest issue--it is extremely difficult to line up properly. I considered sending the jacket back because of this[...].

I wear a size 8 and the small fit me perfectly. Extremely light weight and surprisingly warm for such light material. Only downside is the zipper is hard to zip because it is a 2-way zipper, and they always seem to need several attempts before they finally zip.

I took a chance and ordered after reading all the good reviews, XS was the only size left..and it's still little loose on me. I'm 5'3 and 120 lbs.It's good material, but noisy. I don't know if this is how waterproof jackets are supposed to be. The jacket is lightweight, good material, but it's noisy when trying to move around. I guess i'm just used to wearing a wool jacket or a soft fleece. The arms area are a little big big. It doesn't give your body any shape whatsoever. Especially if it's not zipped, it will look weird. Or maybe because it's loose on me. I have enough room to wear 2 or 3 layers underneath. I'm short so length is not a problem for me. The sleeves are a little bit long, plus the arm area, very unflattering. I'm going to keep it for running errands since I paid ($) [...]
