Fits different from previous version, much tighter. Quality is poor.

If you've either owned or at least tried on the previous Icarus Micro jacket, before forewarned that this jacket fits much smaller in the body, especially the chest, than its predecessor. I ordered a large figuring it would fit the same and it's at least full size smaller in the entire mid to upper torso area, with a significantly more constrictive fit in the underarm area, almost to the point of pinching. It was super snug with a slim shirt underneath, so you could definitely not layer under it to say the least at your normal size. Sleeve size stayed the same.

Ended up returning this jacket for that reason, but also because the plastic snap at the base of the zipper broke on my first attempt to try the jacket on upon receiving it. Disappointed all around because I love the previous one and wanted it in this nifty blue color for a change of pace. Didn't want to exchange for an XL, because I expect the sleeves would be massively too big for me if I did.
Pros:
  • Color
Cons:
  • Fit
  • quality
Would recommend: No
