Samantha B
Verified buyerWell worth it!
“This does exactly as described and actually looks like the picture, sizing is accurate. The jacket is so much nicer than I actually anticipated to be honest, especially for the price. I wore it under my regular vented gear and it was great. I live in Louisiana so don't really require actual winter gear, so this works perfect.”
Valerie V
Verified buyerBizzarre fit. Sleeves are only 3/4 length.
“It works very well for blocking out the wind but the fit is quite bizarre. The torso is extra long with a very narrow hip area. It is loose in the waist area and has obnoxiously short sleeves. The sleeves even with the thumb holes sit 5 inches up my arm from my wrist. I would describe them as 3/4 sleeves at best. I ordered a medium for reference. I'll use the vest portion but the sleeves are unusable and uncomfortable. It's very scratchy until you wash it with lots of fabric softener several times. Overall meh. Pretty much my experience with women's riding gear. Poorly designed fit,”
