    Happy with my jacket

    I travel a lot for work and this jacket is perfect. Roll up and put in your suitcase and it’s good to go on arrival. The only criticism I would have is the sleeve length. About 4cm too long on the XL, and I have long arms. I am a regular 14 usually, but have DD’s so went the XL which is a good fit

    Work jacket

    I wanted a comfortable work jacket that wasn’t tight or restrictive.

    The jacket looks lovely, slightly on the smaller side. Size up if you’re unsure. Great length, lovely material, the arms are a tad long but otherwise perfect mid season jacket or under a coat in winter.

    I got a medium and I’m size 12, large might have been better if I wanted to wear a jumper underneath.

    Looks lovely

    Looks lovely, but finish not quite as polished as expected. Buttons are sewn on very loosely and there's loose threads on both cuffs where the overlocking has not been completed properly. glad i got it on sale as it would not be worth full price
