This jacket looked great online, and something light and not too puffy was what I wanted for warmer weather. I really tried to like it, but the fabric, although nice and well-made, made a crinkly sound every time you moved when you had it on. It made me very self conscious. Also, in order to get the right fit, I had to order up one size, and that ended up with voluminous sleeves that were long and big in the shoulders. It is a really nice jacket for someone with that type of build who doesn't mind crinkling when they move.
I had to return it; but recently got an email from an account executive pointing out precisely how often I returned. This was a big dis-incentive to order from here, even though I love it. But, as I responded to him, that's the deal with online ordering; as carefully as I look at the reviews and descriptions, sometimes you don't know how it will really look, fit and feel until you try it. However, they are evidently now discouraging returns, which is why I may stop ordering from here.
