Customers overwhelmingly praise this jacket for its exceptional lightweight warmth and breathable fabric that provides insulation without bulk, making it ideal for layering and transitional weather. Reviewers consistently commend the flattering fit, full-zip design, and versatile styling for travel, errands, and daily wear. Many appreciate the range of colors—particularly blue and periwinkle—and report the fabric washes well and remains durable. Several customers own multiple versions in different shades. A small group mentions zipper difficulties, and a few note sleeves run slightly long, but most remain highly satisfied overall.
I am a little bit disappointed in this Airlight. I have two others in the exact same size and styling. I find this one a little bit bigger, with sleeves wider than the first two. I

I bought the wine color and it's beautiful. I have a pullover made from the same material which is lightweight. I wanted a zip-up one.

Love the weight and feel of this jacket. Only a 4 star because in the 2X size, the pockets are too far to the back of the jacket. Also the zipper in the pocket is too short so I sc

Zipper broke before I could even wear it
Fit: True to size
The zipper on this garment is horrible. It got snagged and tore clean off the track while I was prepping to wash it before wearing it for the first time. Expensive piece of junk.
