Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Ok, so, for starters I'm a woman, ha. I really loved the style of this jacket but I was worried, based on reviews, that the women's version would be a bit too cropped on me, so I thought I would try the men's. I'm tall and thin - 5'9" 143 pounds. I bought this jacket in a size Medium, which is the size that I would normally fit into in men's clothing. It fits perfectly on me, and falls right where I wanted it to - right about hip length. The sleeves go a little past my wrists, which kinda surprised me because I do have pretty long arms. However, I prefer my sleeves to be a bit longer so I'm happy about that. The upper arms are pretty roomy, though, because obviously this is made for men and I have virtually no upper body musculature, lol. I can see how these jackets might run a tad small for men because even with the little bit of extra room for me to move around in, it's still a very fitted jacket overall. I can layer thicker long sleeve shirts and thin sweatshirts underneath of it and still am able to button it up. But nothing too bulky. This jacket is surprisingly warm, though, thanks to the sherpa lining. The sleeves have a quilted polyamide/polyester lining - certainly not as warm as the body but still pretty decent. I really like the hidden pocket on the inside of the jacket - it's a good size for your phone or wallet. My only complaints, I guess, would be that I wish the front pockets had a sherpa lining as well to keep your hands warm. I'm also not a fan of the snap closure buttons. The color that I ordered - Mustard Blue Denim - is really nice in person and pairs well with darker jeans. Anyway, I think this is a great, warm, handsome jacket that would be well worth buying if you can figure out which size works best for you. I would suggest going with the size you would normally wear in jackets, and if that doesn't fit then try going up a size. Also, consult the size chart on the levi's website as it does seem to be fairly accurate, at least for the size that I bought.
