Perfect solution for rainy day travel
Loved the style of this anorak; color is great, and the green trim boosts your spirits a bit on a dark day. I am 5'4" and 144 lbs; if I weighed about 10 pounds less, the medium would be the best fit, but L works great for me as I was looking for something a bit longer than the usual rain jacket. The ruching tightens up the upper body fit so that it does not look baggy. It passed the 17-year old girl approval test, so the styling truly must be as good as I think it is. It is light and packable, but substantial enough to be effective; perfect for travel as it rebounds well from being packed.
Perfect raincoat
I searched the Web for an (affordable) raincoat that was lightweight enough for travel. I fell in love with the photo of this one. I RARELY order clothing from the Web - I'm very small and even XS are usually too big. This raincoat is perfect in every way - very stylish, fits as if it were made for me - I'm 5'1" 100 lbs. I couldn't be happier with it.
LOVE IT!
I am 5'7" and 150lbs and usually wear mediums but the medium was HUGE, but the small fits perfectly. The length is great and it's the perfect weight for a summer coat. I'm excited to use it as a travel coat because I think it will roll up easily and travel well in airports. I've already gotten a bunch of compliments!
Cute jacket
Cute jacket for travel and boating. I haven't tested it in the rain yet! It would have fit better if the chest detail came down a bit further and the cinching was in the waist. But it still works for me (36C, 5' 6", 145). I got a medium in the purple. I love the color, and it took up very little room in my suitcase. Lots of pockets and handy hood. Recommend!
Too long
Wanted to love this jacket, but it's headed back. The purple color was very nice and while the material was a lot lighter than I expected, it would have been a great addition to my wardrobe and a good travel and layering piece. It was too long for my body though (I'm 5'3") and felt too tent like. Please consider offering pieces like this in petites too! Also, it has a full length zipper (in addition to the buttons), but it doesn't unzip from the bottom at all - a missed opportunity in a jacket this length.
bulky
Bought this jacket because of upcoming travel. Especially attracted to the chest fit and design. Disappointed in the fit below this. Kept it because of the top.
Wanted to love it
Looked so cute in the catalog, but was pretty shapeless. Even with the cord it felt "poofy" on the bottom. I could tell from the photo that the jacket zipped up the front, but there is also a hot pink cord that goes around each button... I didn't care for that. It's a nice weight, and looks like it would be great for travel, just didn't work for me.
