I love the color and shape of this jacket but the arms are very narrow. It's almost like they made a plus size jacket in the body, but sewed on arms from a size small jacket. I don't consider myself to have unusually large arms but I had to send this jacket back because the way it clung to my upper arms was so uncomfortable.

Levi has finally managed to ruin this jacket. The fabric is thin and ugly (cotton blend) and the fit is skimpy. The arms are narrow and long. I have been wearing jean jackets since the '70s and now I will have to look for another brand.

Luv this jacket. Structured enough to wear to work with dress slacks. Only had a few days that it wasn't freezing, that I was able to wear, but very comfortable for spring, and the coming breezy summer evenings. And I don't wait for Memorial Day to wear white!

I am 5 9 tall, with arms and torso just long enough, shoulders just wide enough and bust just big enough that normal XL usually does not fit properly everywhere. So even when my weight is not fluctuating up I frequently resort to Plus sizes (or Menswear!) to get the right shirt and sleeve length, and adequate room in the bust. It is worth it, even though alterations are time-consuming and $$$. Generally for a casual blazer/jacket I try for a 0X-1X. For a jean jacket, bigger is fine may want to layer. I listened to reviews above - that these sleeves are VERY tight, and if you run 1X-2X go ahead and order the 3X. Tight sleeves are all too common! My arms are not huge but I would not call them thin. And I already have two adorably slim fitting jean jackets (old Faconnable when it was all made in Hong Kong and the materials and tailoring were top of the line!). My problem is when I try to layer long sleeved or heavier shirts with them, so I SPECIFICALLY wanted a jean jacket with more room in the sleeves. So, on the basis of the Zappos Reviews I ordered the 3X. (Never tried anything in 3X before, but we all know sizes are relative - to brand, style, country of origin, phase of the moon when sewn, haha.) Wow, it is large. And these sleeves are PLENTY roomy. So I don t know if the smaller sizes had a much smaller arm cut, I didn t order all sizes to compare, but I d think 3X is MORE than enough for most gals. This is a nice traditional style, but modernized and female-shaped - and I really like the variated darker wash of the Saddle Blue on this one. So I am keeping it. I may actually run it in the dryer which I NEVER do with cottons because it could stand to shrink. A lot, a lot, a lot, actually. This size fits like wearing my boyfriend s jacket. Will be useful for layering, but still cute over a tank or tee due to the sturdy shaping. So I rather like the bigness of it; looks like what it is the iconic, big ol casual trucker jacket. But if your upper arms are just a tad over tiny, my guess is the smaller 1X to 2X would be just fine. I would definitely order down for fit if I hadn't fallen in love with the boyfriend look.

Should have paid attention to the posted reviews. Sleeves are very tight. Overall jacket is tight. I'm typically an 18-20 shirt and ordered a 2x. Going to try a 3x.

I love this jacket, it's perfect for the fall weather with a sweater beneath and trendy. The arms do run a little on the tight side, but the material does stretch. Anything jean is always difficult to purchase when you're plus sized, but I definitely would recommend this to any and everyone.

Love it! Originally got this for my club patch but now I'm going to get another one to wear normally. Very stretchy and comfortable. It's softer and thinner than the original trucker though it still seems sturdy enough. Keeps me warm but still good as a summer jacket, don't know how it'll stand up in the blistering LA winter yet. The cut is very flattering, much better than the old boxy fit.

This jacket is very nice. The Ocean Sail color is even nicer in person. Not stiff, nice and stretchy. But oh my, does it run small! I am typically a 1X in tops, 2X in jackets (such as Columbia) if I want to be able to layer underneath. I ordered this in a 3X and it fits perfectly. (I am 5'8", bust 40F). I was worried it might fit awkwardly - perfect in the body but loose in the arms, or boxy in the body and way too tight in the arms. Not the case at ALL - size UP ladies. Im very happy with this jacket, just think it's silly that there are plenty of fabulous gals out there bigger than me that would not be able to get this jacket. I'm usually someone who likes to think about things before committing - after all Zappos has an amazing return policy - but I took the tags right off and am taking it on vacation!

Perfect. I got a 2x due to reviews. It is a bit big but I can layer. I see no tightness in the arms. The 1x would fit a bit more and be flattering but the 2x is comfy. I say this is true to size. Don’t size up

Love this jacket, I've never owned a jean jacket because they made me feel boxy but this one has a great amount of stretch and is much more form fitting.

The size is great! Seems true to size for me with comfort added and room to layer. *Depending on where you store your lady lumps, this could be tight in some spots. I read a few reviews that said to size up...
but I didn't. Very very glad I didn't. Looking forward to wearing this all spring and summer over maxi dresses and when the A/C is a little too cold :)

I was surprised by this jacket! When I took it out of the packaging, I thought it was going to be too boxy. When I put it on, however, it has a nice shape and stretch to it! I can roll up the sleeves with ease, it hits perfectly at the hip, great color...it’s a keeper!

Yes! I've been waiting to find the right jean jackets. These are perfect and allow for the arm stretch which many other denim jackets don't allow. Perfect to size as well.

Great denim jacket. I don't feel constricted in this jean jacket at all. I wear it with summer dresses right now in early spring since it is a little too cool to be wearing them without something on one's arms.

A solid plus-sized take on the classic Levi's jean jacket. Like all Levi's, it's very stiff at first. I washed it once before wearing it, and know it'll just keep getting better the more I wash it. (Meaning, I'm going to make a conscious effort to wash it more than it actually needs to be clean, in order to soften it.)
I thought I'd need a 2x, but a 1x fit me fine.

OK but returning - the color is a bit more faded than it looks online. (ocean sail color); fits OK but then this isn't the first Levis jacket I have: they run small, I always get the plus size 1X (I'm 38B bust but petite) because they aren't as stiff (the plus sizes are cotton, poly & elastane) so the are softer and stretch. The arms are narrow but not as bad as the regular misses sizes, because they do have stretch to them. Nice quality (who can beat Levis??), but I want a darker color.

I bought this jacket in both blue and white. I like their look, and they are perfect for cool weather. The jacket is snug, so don't try to buy a smaller size than you really need.

I purchased this jacket in a 2x. I normally would wear a 1 x but I know Levis run small and it fit great. I love this jacket, but it arrived with the smell of moth balls. I hope I can wash the smell out.

Boxy and very masculine. I don't think it's comfortable at all. Very heavy and stuff jacket.

Arms are crazy small! The denim: Great color, great feel, just enough stretch without it being too stretchy. The shape of the body of the jacket was good - cut well. I loved everything about it...until I tried to get my arms into it! I'm normally a 1x but based on the "small arms" reviews on this jacket, I upped it to a 2x - and the arms are still tiny - as in, more like a regular womens size medium! Run screaming from this one unless you have the arms of a 6th grader.

This is the third time I ordered this jacket. It is not the jacket pictured. It is a regular denim jacket the sleeves are not gray.
