Great sweater

I love the jacket it is so soft on the inside and the color is so pretty with grey and cream mixed together. I was a little unsure of what size to get so order an XL and L but ended up keeping the L. It’s a good fit without being too loose and giving me some shape. I normally wear a large so I would say it’s true to size.

runs small

This was way thicker and heavier than I thought it would be and I sized up per other reviews and the size XL runs too snug and small. It was longer than the pictures which I do like but will be returning due to being too small.

My third better sweater!

I love the better sweater! But it does run at least 1 size small like the other reviewers mentioned and I also wanted to point out that this style does NOT have any side or front pockets even though the product description states that it does. Luckily I was familiar with this style from trying it on in the store so I knew it only had the one zippered pocket on the arm.

Cozy Jacket

Love this jacket! It has a nice shape however it runs a bit small. I have an XS puffer that I love but had to get this in a small because the sleeves were about an inch too short and snug in the shoulders due to the tailored fit (I have broad shoulders). I’m 5’4” & 120lbs.

Super quality

The sweater is gorgeous and very well made. I purchased a small and it was too tight on the shoulders. I am 5’’5”, 120lbs. Will buy a medium next time.

Loved so much even ordered one for my husband!

This is my new favorite go-to sweater! Love the quality and fit—so warm and cozy and looks great with jeans. I have “New Navy” and even ordered one for my husband...now his new favorite! Also ordered “Birch White” to add to my collection. I’m 5’8” and 135lbs and prefer M fit over small.

Meh...cute but not that great

After all the hype, it feels meh to me...not particularly soft and not stretchy at all (comfy when on but not easy to get on/off)...will be returning!
