Customer Reviews Straight Down Swing Jacket

I REALLY wanted to love this jacket. The color is fabulous, the quality of the fabric was very nice and I really did like the ribbed texture. However, I listened to previous reviews that this jacket has a snug fit, so ordered up one size and got this in large ((I always wear a medium in every brand). The large was still too fitted at the waist making it a "style" jacket rather than a functional one, way too snug for golf or travel. Plus, the sleeves had to be turned up about 2-3 inches as they covered my hands in the larger size. There is a random pocket on one sleeve that is too small for my iPhone (it would work if you had a leftover iPod), WHEN are the manufacturers going to realize that there is an entire demographic out there other than the 22-30 year old gals who love their skin tight clothes. The rest of us want good looking, well made tops and jackets with a fit that is not sprayed onto our bodies. I had to return this jacket, and hope to find a comfortable, good looking jacket, properly sized, without the skin tight sizing.

Great material and look. Felt very substantial. Same as all other reviewers said: Runs SNUG! I wear a medium to large in most things. I'm a Size "13" LOL. 12's too tight 14's too loose. This was very tight in the middle when you zipped it up. Sleeve length was great- I'm 5"10 and it fell to mid-hip. After looking at so many Zappo options, I ordered this one and then an Adidas Golf one. They were basically the same except the Adidas fit was better (lighter material) and cost less. I'm keeping the Adidas.

Bought this jacket for playing golf on cool spring mornings. This is a very attractive jacket and the Iris color is amazing. I was definitely looking for a full zip so as not to interfere with hat, visor, sunglasses when removing. Unfortunately, it lacks essential details necessary for a good golf jacket. 1. the sleeves do not have an elastic cuff. 2. The pockets are not deep enough for balls and tees and definitely not deep enough for a cell phone (think GPS). So... because it is so cute. I will keep this jacket for walks, and about town, but will not be wearing it for golf, which unfortunately is the reason I bought it in the first place. A bit disappointed.

I am an almost 'perfect' size Medium in every brand (5'9" 145).. But this item runs extremely small! (sent it back)... Had bought in the 'pink' color at a discounted price. Went to buy in a larger size (2 days after purchasing the Medium, since Zappos shipping is so fast) and the price had gone up (what??) - and no Large.. Bummer....

Love the style, very comfy, warm for office AC temperature and soft to skin!

This jacket is very well made, and the ribbing gives it structure and a nice line. The zipper & arm pocket are great details, as well. It runs small, unless you like a body hugging fit. For golf, it needed to have a bit more give. The arms were tight as well. Order up if you want to allow for movement.

I have this jacket in 8 colors! I always receive compliments when I wear one. I am a solid medium and the medium fits perfect. LOVE the feminine cut. Fitted but not tight. Very classy looking. If you are buying it for playing golf, I would have to agree with the other reviews that you might want to size up for a roomier fit.

soooo comfortable, cute, perfect fit

Fit as expected

Runs a bit small, so I ordered a small instead of extra small. It stretches though. Wash and wear seems good.
