What customers say:

The jacket is lightweight yet warm, windproof, and water-resistant, making it suitable for a range of weather conditions. Customers appreciate the stylish design, comfortable fit, and useful pockets. Many find the jacket to be a versatile option for everyday wear. However, some had issues with the sizing, particularly the length of the sleeves and the fit of the hood. A few also felt the jacket was not warm enough for very cold weather.

Fit: Too small
Like the style and light weight warmth. The fit is off. Ordered the large it was far too big and the medium is a little too small; have not had this fit issue before with LLB items

Sleeves Way Too Long!
The petite small that I ordered fit well enough, except that the sleeves were several inches too long and could not be cinched enough to prevent the sleeves from extending halfway
