I had been looking for this exact jacket on the Dick’s sporting goods website and on other websites because I fell in love with the color. The computer screen and my phone (on every website) Show the most lovely powdery ice blue, an early morning sky color. Beautiful. But that color was sold out everywhere in my size, I’m a 5’4 200 pound former athlete, muscular but too curvy for regular sizes, so I am between a 1x and 2x. I was so happy to find it on Amazon. I was shocked when it arrived. The blue is nothing like the picture. The actual jacket is high quality and a Good length; i wanted something that covered up my rear completely, it’s an excellent weight for spring and light rains, and the hood fits well, unfortunately the sleeves are lined with a soft material and not a silky material, making it very difficult to put on. If you have old injuries or arthritis, no way can you get this on without discomfort. But the real problem is the color. It’s a very tacky, candy colored blue, like a gumball from a machine in the 70s, absolutely nothing like the subtle and uplifting blue in the color. I checked four times it is the exact same jacket but the color does not translate properly. If you’re buying this jacket for the color, like I was, because you really wanted something in this light blue, this isn’t going to make your heart sing. It is a decent jacket otherwise but very overpriced.
