The material is very thin.

Overall I like the jacket. It was exactly what I want to wear for Black History Month. But the material is way to thin to wear in the winter months. I wear a 16 and the XXl was still too small. I would probably try ordering a XXX if the material wasn't so thin, Because I really did like it.

Pros
  • Love the print and fabric. Glad I bought a size too large. Plan to wear as a jacket over dress or slacks
Cons
  • I like the jacket very much but the material was cheap. The arms were tighter than I expected.

Runs small in my review

Merchant sent wrong color so I had to return and reorder. Runs very small. I had to order 2 sizes up. Love it now I have the right size and color. Colors are beautiful and bright.

Pros
  • Purchased a large. It shipped quickly and fit perfectly.
Cons
  • May be too bold for some personal styles

This coat is stunning

I got so many compliments have worn it on with pants with the dress is great for both winter and for summer. May not be appropriate for all fashion styles.

Pros
  • The African Print Jacket is a great way to show your support for African designers and promote ethical fashion
Cons
  • May not be appropriate for all fashion styles

Show Stopper on my review.

After reading most of the reviews, I purchased this "shirt-like-jacket" of a larger size. On the day of my first wearing I was asked by numerous people, where did you get that?Or comments such as, Wow, that's so nice, what beautiful colors.It's worth purchasing for the prize. But remember, its a shirt like fabric, so your investment is in a colorful garment that can be worn to brighten the day.

Pros
  • It is easy to style and pairs well with any color or pattern, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe
Cons
  • May not have adequate sizing options for taller or shorter individuals

Item not as expected

Not as expected. No lining, and it still looks smaller than my normal size(xl). The fabric is dull. It's also short. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Was a little small
Cons
  • May not be suitable for all age groups

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very cute but runs small

I ordered two sizes to make sure I got the size I needed. I normally wear a M, so I ordered a M and a L. I’m keeping the large, although it’s still a tight fit. I like the design and fabric tho.

Pros
  • The jacket is perfect for any occasion, whether you are dressing up for a formal event or just need a stylish outfit for a night out
Cons
  • May attract unwanted attention

Stylish Jacket on my review.

I love the style and colors of this jacket. May fade after multiple washes. It makes me feel like a Queen. I would recommend this for any occasion.

Pros
  • Couldn’t fit me well as a size medium person, had to give it to my size small sister.
Cons
  • May fade after multiple washes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Runs small good for me

Love this jacket. But had to buy a 3xl to get the right fit runs very small. I am usually a size 16 misses. Which is extra large.

Pros
  • The vibrant colors and intricate patterns of the African Print Jacket are a true celebration of African culture and tradition
Cons
  • May not suit all personal style aesthetics

Too Small, Order WAY Up

I ordered a 3X, although I'm a 1X, due to other reviews. It fits, but you know that tight shoulder feel.like you can bust out of it when hugging someone or lifting your hand? Yeah, so no. Nice material, albeit not as heavy as African cloth. Asian sizes though.New review:I'd forgotten I'd already tried this order. Glad I tried again. Realizing it was Shebolen, and they do Asian sizes, I ordered the 4x. Perfect! Now I typically wear a 1x, so you can tell what you need to do to get something that…

Pros
  • Runs really small. I had to resend and reorder.
Cons
  • May not flatter all skin tones

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love colors. This suits me and it did break the bank.

I had to order a 4X just to get size 14. But I don't care, I love it. Look, I wish I had the time to go get the coat for a picture but I'm here alone

Pros
  • Beautiful but the upper sleeve was too small for me so sadly had to return.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for cooler temperatures

Disappointed good for me

I really like the style. Thanks for attention! I ordered a size up and it was still too small. I'm not sure if 2 sizes up would helped.

Pros
  • Runs small
Cons
  • Size is the concern. The material of tops and shirts that were purchased from Shenbolen was great.

Wrong fabric and size sent to me.

Fabric not s pictured. Wring color and size sent. I ordered an XL of the print listed in my order for $35.00. Requesting a refind.

Pros
  • The jacket can be worn with jeans, shorts, skirts, and even dresses, making it a versatile piece that can be styled in many different ways
Cons
  • May not offer enough coverage for modesty preferences

Beautiful! for my opinion

I loved the vibrant colors and style of this jacket/top, especially the sleeves! The jacket looked even better in person than it did on screen. I would love to have a "hook and eye" up top rather than the open concept but I was happy with the product regardless. Thanks!

Pros
  • Dresses
Cons
  • May not stay in place while wearing

Revainrating 5 out of 5

love colors good for me

the jacket is beautiful however it's thin. Will be a nice overlay this fall--i am glad i got it--very cute for the price. I followed reviews and ordered the xl--i normally would be a large and it was not loose--

Pros
  • The jacket is very affordable, so you can add a touch of African heritage to your wardrobe without breaking the bank
Cons
  • May not have adequate seller or manufacturer support

Perfect fit! best in my review

This jacket was EVERYTHING I wanted and needed it to be. I got a size up to be safe but I loved the lose fit on me bc I don't like my clothes too tight. I'm normally a 16-18 that doesn't wear tight clothing.

Pros
  • Style
Cons
  • May be difficult to accessorize

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pros
  • The jacket is made with high-quality materials that will withstand regular wear and tear, ensuring that you can enjoy it for years to come
Cons
  • May require special care to maintain its vibrant colors

Love it so much, I had to order the other color!

I ordered this for Heritage Sunday at my church and got so many compliments. The colors are beautiful and the fabric is of good quality. I also wore it to a jazz concert and was complimented all night long. I love the purple/rainbow colored print so much that I had to have the other. It was delivered yesterday; perfect timing, since I'm leaving tomorrow for mini vacation!

Pros
  • It is made from high-quality materials that are both comfortable and durable, ensuring long-lasting wear
Cons
  • May not flatter all hair types
