Review on Stylish & Sporty: VUTRU Women's Slim Fit Full Zip Hoodie Jacket for Track Running with Zip Pockets by Jesus Baker

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice jacket but I would order one size bigger!

i 5'5 114lbs 34b. I have a small size black one. It's always very difficult for me to find a jacket that isn't big for me. I'm not a super babe or anything, but I'm slim and waisted, and a lot of jackets end up feeling too bulky for me (I hate that, which is why a lot of my favorite jackets are actually kid's medium). This jacket fitted perfectly except for the fact that it's too long (I think it was about 25 inches from shoulder to hem so it went below my hips). I sent it back and am planning to change the order to size M if I can't find anything better (just worried that in M it won't fit properly on the arms and shoulders which are perfect for size S). I wouldn't mind the length so much if it was looser in the bottom half. It's not tight, but as tight as it gets, it's the kind of jacket I wouldn't wear even if I was slightly bloated. Also, it was tight enough that I couldn't put anything in those pockets without it looking weird (and I love using my pockets), and I had to worry about the shirt I was wearing underneath getting in lumps fell. up if it weren't so close. I would definitely order a size up if you want a looser fit than this one. The stitching on this jacket probably makes it really flattering on most body types! I noticed a lot of threads sticking out, but I definitely didn't see any holes or breaks, so it's possible they're just left over from production. The fabric is a bit thick and stretchy but feels light and soft and feels like it could wick sweat. This isn't a fabric to worry about pilling, but I can definitely see that it can fade and stretch (albeit after a long time). It seems to be suitable for different temperatures. I wear it for hiking every morning (I go very early), but I live in Sokal, so I don't have to worry about it getting colder than the 30s where I am (it rarely even happens cold here) . I would just wear something warmer for the one month "winter" we have here. I'm not sure I would wear it if it was warmer than 65 because I would probably get too hot. Better than anything? The hood can actually protect your head in the rain, although it's not actually a waterproof fabric. A couple of times when it rains here I'm never prepared, so I've always had the problem of getting snagged in the middle of a hike with my admittedly kid-sized hoodie, which is practically useless for keeping my hair and face out of the water keep ; I think this jacket will definitely be better.

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • I don't remember but something was
