great jacket
Warm, sleek and tough. I throw this jacket on the gym floor and it looks like new. 5'2" med frame and the size small fits un-snugly but looks great with leotards. It's warm and non-itchy and I enjoy the signature on the right, lower hem. The tiny dot of graphite lubricant on the zipper and now it works like butter. Altrec rocks with free & fast shipping.

too big
i am a huge fan of merino wool, and am willing to pay a little more for the quality and durability. but this jacket was so large it looked silly- not at all stylish as the photo would imply. i had to return it. try ordering down if possible.

Too many zippers
The five zippers on the front of this jacket made it funny looking to me, and so it went back. Otherwise, it was roomy and long (not overly so), heavy (not too much), and comfortable.

extremely dissapointed
im very disappointing of this jacket, I ordered it in size M and it was too big, I made the return, ordered in size Small (50dlls more)but i had to leave to a 3 month vacation, came back a few days ago and my new jacket was waiting for me, but the fabric is not as firm, is still big, the zipper does not work that well,, and i just feel extremely disappointed, sadly i got this package in sept 8 and i just got back 3 days ago and cant make a return,, but i will not recommend this item at all...

Should be warm when winter comes around.
Looks to be a warm jacket but the zipper is really quite difficult to get it to engage ( nearly sent it back because of this). The ribbing is very heavy which makes this a heavier than expected jacket - I will have to wait until winter rolls around to find out if this will become a favorite. The Brazil is nice color. I ordered a size large to allow for shrinking and I have long arms but probably should have gone with a size medium.
