Customer Reviews

Sizing Chart is WAY off
I ordered this vest when it was on sale for $25.00. I ordered an L and by the sizing chart, it should have been a little big on me... I couldn't even get the zippers together.
I couldn't exchange it for a bigger size without buying it at full price either since it wasn't "Amazon's fault".
It was rediculous. If you are going to buy this, make sure to buy a size bigger than you usually wear.

Overall, it looked like a good product, although it was very upsetting that the vest didn't fit correctly.

Nice Quality, But Sizing WAY Off.
As the one other reviewer at this time politely noted, the sizing chart as of November 2009 runs small - i.e. order a size or two larger than you think you will need as the sizes appear to run at least 1-2 sizes too small. In real life, my wife is a size 18W-20W (depending on the product and brand), which according to the sizing chart would put her between XL and 2XL, so she ordered size 2XL. Both this puffer vest and the 1/4 zip fleece were inches short of even closing, let alone fitting properly. Not that the sausage-casing look isn't hot, but come on.......really?

With regards to product quality, everything appears to be very nice - from materials to assembly/construction. If only they would have been sized properly, both items would have been keepers. The real rub is that Amazon charged me the return shipping because "the error is not theirs". Clearly, I'm not going to have a meltdown or stop shopping at Amazon over this, but it's always a little frustrating when things don't work out as planned. Better luck in the future, I guess.

Nice vest, size runs small
This is a very nice vest. I like that it's a longer than most but it does run small. I usually wear a medium or large and purchased a large so I could layer this with other garments, but it fits more like a medium. Nice quality so I'll keep it and luckily will be able to give it to my daughter.
