Well it doesn't quite look like the picture on me--it is quite long, so the model must be quite tall as I am 5'6" and it falls below the hips. This is not necessarily a bad thing, just a surprise. It is rather A-shaped, and from the side view, not that flattering. The fit is as expected--I wear a size 8 and the medium is fine and would allow me to reasonably fill the pickets.  The number of pockets is great--about the right number and generous enough.  It is much heavier than I expected, though--probably good for spring or fall, but definitely not for summer. The quality is good so I plan to keep it, but I won't take it with me hiking in the summer as intended, that's for sure. I think for the money it's a great buy, but not exactly what I had hoped for.
