I felt the sleeves were short too so I went to the fabric store and bought some cuffs and sewed them onto the end of the sleeves and now they fit great!

Overall:

I've tried on dozens of down 3/4 length coats, designer and not, and this had the most flattering fit and tailoring. I'd have to agree with everything the 1st reviewer has said. The only complaint I have is that the inner stretchy cuff fits right around the wrist and makes the sleeve look a little short for the arms. If the cuffs weren't made as they were, the end of the sleeves would fall comfortably to just above the thumbs. But instead, it makes the sleeves look like they stop right as the wrist. So I did the unthinkable, I cut them off. Because they're on the inside, you can't tell.

Overall:

Solid, tight performance in a wet-suit jacket. After 3 years it's running great. Though a few threads have torn, I won't send it in because I use it constantly and don't want to give it up. The cuffs are tight, the fit great and it's completely windproof. Not waterproof, but resistant for the first year or so. I've had to recoat it about 3 times in the past 2 years and it's still not as good as new. It's very hot if you move a lot because of the thick, neoprene-like shell, but this is perfect when I'm active. Neck cinch is a great addition as well as the inside pocket. Wish it had under-arm vents though. Waist is short and size is a bit small overall, but you should wear it tight anyway.

I sadly sent this back as the fit was strange. I'm usually a size 4 or 6 (size 4 jeans at the gap fit me perfectly), but I know that Mountain Hardwear stuff runs small, so I ordered an 8. It would have been fine, it hung a few inches below my belly button, which is where I like skirts to be, but it was too tight across the hips! it was totally weird: loose and low on the waist and kind of pulled at the tops of my thighs. I've never had this problem before. Maybe it would fit well on someone with a "straighter" figure. Otherwise, the fabric is a soft, dense, wrinkle-free blend and it would have been great for winter with tights and boots. (I should add that my husband didn't like it all and said it looked like a sack. Oh well!)

Overall:

I spent weeks flip-flopping over which down coat to buy for the winter. As soon as it arrived, I knew I made the right choice! The downtown parka is the perfect combination of lofty down and sleek fit. It's soft, super warm, and fits perfectly. I'm 5' 3" and the coat fits a few inches above my knees. I bought an XS, and it still fits over my thick sweaters with just a bit of room to spare. Anyone looking for real warmth in a coat without compromising style should consider this one.

Overall:

Wow! I love these pants! After trying on every pair of "hiking" pants at the local stores, these put North Face and Columbia to shame. The stretchy fabric, the chamois lined waistband, gusseted crotch all make these pants so comfortable. These pants are good for just about any outdoor activity And they don't make you look like you are wearing a Hefty bag. I'm 5'2", 122 lbs, more pear shaped and ordered a size 6 short. I'm typically a size 4 or 6. They fit perfect.

Too tight. Really liked the look online, but when I got my size they felt way too tight for a casual semi-fitted capri, so not sure about sizing. That being said, it was hard to judge the overall look.

So comfortable! I am petite, and ordered a size 2, and they fit perfectly! I expect most pants to be long on me, and these are a bit long, but not bad. Very lightweight feel. Comfortable waist with soft material lining the inside of waistband. I only wish they converted into shorts!

Overall:

Fantastic casual skirt - Just bought this skirt and I love it. It's going to be great for travelling. It's a nice light nylon, very cool in the summer. I only gave it 4 stars because the zippered pockets on the seam can make the sides flare out in a strange way but I fixed it my repositioning the material of the pockets. And while I'm usually a 2 or a 4 at most in bottoms I bought a 6 in this skirt so that it sits below my belly button. I think it's cut to fit at your waist.

I love this skirt. Great for everyday wear and perfect to pack for a trip. One tip- do not try to iron it even on a low setting. I am now on my second skirt because the first one melted into oblivion as soon as the iron hit it. The label advised low heat, but I would not even do that. Shake it instead. Seems to do the trick!

Overall:

Darling and very flattering dress. Please keep in mind that it is very fitted so I don't know how well it would work if you had figure flaws to hide but if you you have a trim physique this dress is dynamite. I got the blue with the orchid trim and it is beautiful. Interesting details. Very comfortable. Built in bra is a plus. I'll wear it a lot this summer.

Jacket fit is true to size. I have very broad shoulders and it still fits great. Love the soft shell material. Quality of the jacket itself is top notch. A little pricey, but you definitely get what you pay for! I would recommend this product to anyone.

Overall:

I love, love these pants! I bought 2 colors and plan to buy a third. They are super-comfortable, quite stylish, and great quality. I live near state parks and hike at least 3 times a week, so they are perfect - in both hot and cool weather. I also wear them around town b/c they are so stylish, and I get lots of compliments. They seem to run true to size. I'm a Zappos devotee.

Love this skirt for outdoor or active wear. It holds it shape all day. I feel it runs a little big in the waist, although there is a cord to pull it tighter. I would buy this skirt again, but size down one size since I have a narrow waist.

Reviewer: from Cambridge MA

Overall:

Flattering fit, lovely color, needs modification - If you've got a trim figure and are looking for a comfortable, flattering, interesting dress, this might well fit the bill. The only problem I have with it is that the line of trim at the hem of the skirt makes it look like a cheerleading uniform, or perhaps a tennis dress. Obviously the racer back gives it a sporty look, but unless you're actually intending to wear it to play sports you might not appreciate the trim on the hem. I didn't like it so I removed the trim (unavoidably taking out the hem in the process) and took it to my tailor to have the hem re-sewn. Now it's great.

Overall:

I bought these pants for hiking in the woods. They are perfect for me. The fit is great, I like the drawstring at the ankles, nice to have an adjustable waist, the pockets on the legs are handy and can easily be zipped/unzipped with one hand while moving, they are lite weight and great for warmer weather. I would buy more if they came in other colors! I'm a happy hiker!

Overall:

I have really worn this skirt a lot, in the gray color. It is cute and the fabric is very soft. It is holding up well to washing. It's probably more of a fall/winter garment due to the weight of the fabric.

Overall:

Lofoten Skirt - This skirt is not for people who are a little meaty in the thighs. It makes your thighs look bigger. It also runs small, so unless you like it hugging your natural waste, buy a size up so it hangs off of your hips. The material is really nice and heavy, good material for a winter skirt and has that soft look that it does in the picture. Overall I would have kept it the cut was a little different.

Great jacket!Ordered this in tan for my daughter. Looks really sharp. Ordered a medium (she usually wears a size 4) and it fits just fine. I'd order up a size just to make sure it fits over winter wear.

Overall:

Probably the best cover I have ever worn.If you want warmth and wind protection for your head and ears, then this is it. Some state that it does reduce sound level a little and this is true, but this is due to the Gore Wind Stopper material. If you want to maintain warmth on your head in cold weather, this is the cover you want. It breathes out so you won't get the sweaty head either. It's just the best cover/boggin I have ever worn, period.

Overall:

These are my favorite pants - These pants fit great and look great. Not too tight, not too loose. Very flattering. I have noticed the white-material is a bit less "noisy" than the green-material (only two colors I could find). However, both colors are great- and they don't show dirt!
