UMI Full-Zip

Within minutes of unpacking this garment I had tried it on and viewed it in front of a full length mirror. I then repacked it and took it to the post office to return - after first clicking online for the returns procedure.  Why?  Because beautiful as it was, it did not have the roomy feel portrayed in the photographs.  In fact, it was rather snug across the back of the hips, looking lumpy!  Such a pity.

I bought this jacket in a different color about two years ago at Peek & Cloppenburg. Since I really like the cut and the material, I wanted to have it in black as well. I'm very happy that I was able to order it easily and directly from didriksons online. The delivery was quick and flawless.

This jacket is perfect for a cool late summer morning or a chilly autumn day when it's still too warm outside for a "real" winter jacket. I spent a long time deciding which color to choose and finally went with the "clay beige" version. The high collar keeps my neck and throat nice and warm.

I'm 1.65 meters tall, weigh 90 kg, and have a large bust and bottom. I usually wear a size 44-46 or XL. Based on the description and reviews, I ordered this jacket in size 44. It fits perfectly. It can be worn zipped up with a light sweater/shirt/blouse, or open with a thick sweater and scarf. The sleeves are a little long, so I fold them up slightly at the bottom.

This fleece is fantastic, warm and cosy, the longer back and large collar adds to the wind protection, for dog walking in Scotland. I will be able to  layer  the fleece under a waterproof in bad weather. I have bought two so far. 

I love the length of the fleece.  When sitting it rests on the top of your legs which is great for warmth. The sleeves are slightly long on me but that will be really good when it gets cold as there won't be a gap between the cuff and gloves. The high neck will also be great when it is cold and windy.
