Jacket fit is great, usually size 6 (Northface usually small or occasionally Medium), purchased size small and fit is great alone yet also does allow for Denali fleece under if needed. Problem was the color, it's not a fiery red as advertised, it's a safety vest orange color. I've held it up to both red and orange..hoping to be ok as I didn't want to go through returning..it's not red. The return actually was smooth. I'm exchanging it for black. Once I'm able to try it will update how it does in the weather.
perfect color, not bulky, picture doenst do justice
