I recently bought this jacket because I have suddenly acquired an interest for bright colored pants and I thought a jean jacket would look great with my new style... I had been looking around at several different stores for a few weeks and when I came across this jacket, I had to have it!! Not only did it beat the retail pricing by about $30, but it was a name brand I have actually heard of--Dickies, PLUS, the color was just what I was looking for--not too light, but not too dark!

I have never owned a jean jacket before, so I was really unsure about how it would fit, which lead me to some doubts about which size to buy... Going off the size chart provided by Amazon and being that I am normally a Large (and I like my jackets to fit a little loose) I ordered an XL... WRONG!! LOL. To put things in perspective... I am 5'8 and about 170 lbs and the XL practically went past my butt and the sleeves were about 6-8 inches too long!

Thankfully, Amazon makes returns/exchanges simple, so I sent it back and re-ordered a Medium. The Medium fits perfectly!! The slightly stretchy denim isn't restricting on my arms/shoulders (like I thought jean jackets would be)... and it's the perfect length. This jacket quickly became my go-to, light-weight, favorite jacket!! : )

So, with that being said, I highly recommend ordering a size SMALLER than what you normally would wear.

I hope this helps!
