Flattering fit, great for trim people, not technical

by SnowLover, Verified Owner from UT, United States Written on February 20, 2021
I am 5' 4", 114 lbs. I have smallish hips. The 8 was supposed to be equivalent to an XS. I might find this more like XXS. It still fit me, but it was probably slightly too small around the bottom/thighs. The rest fit very well but not wearing over layers. I suspect the next size up would have fit me like a typical US size XS. This would be a great jacket for those truly tiny people that swim in everything.

I was hoping for a very warm and cute ski coat. It would have been a nice spring coat. The pockets and rest are not made for a real ski coat IMO. They only snap, so you would not want to use them for skiing. It would be a great regular winter coat (thought didn't appear super warm). It doesn't have much insulation/thin which likely attributes to it's nice slim fit.

I would have sized up if I were looking for a cute coat. This would not be a ski coat mainly due to lack of zipped pockets. I am returning, but I think it is a great sale deal.
