This jacket is the best jacket I have ever had
The moment I put this jacket on, I knew I was going to be comfortable doing my 4 mile power walk in 20 degree weather. The jacket fits perfectly at size small. I usually wear an extra small. I am 5'5" 102 pounds. The fit is very flattering, not bulky like most winter coats. The heat retention is wonderful for such a thin lightweight garment. As I got in to my walk I began to get too warm as I usually do. This time I did not have to shed anything. I just unzipped the under the arm ventilation zippers and voila!! I was just the right temperature again. This is the best jacket I have ever had and worth the price.
