Had it on a few clients. Runs big. Looks okay. Very casual and unstructured.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caslon-shawl-collar-knit-jackettried-it#post-1532240 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 04:24:39 +0000 Elly 1532240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The quality is higher than other Caslon things I've tried in the past (nicer fabric). I didn't have problems with the sleeves or the shoulders, I just didn't LOVE it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caslon-shawl-collar-knit-jackettried-it#post-1532115 Sun, 02 Aug 2015 23:10:27 +0000 Peri 1532115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Tanya, Traci and Laura...three votes no. I did notice the similarity to the HL, which I already sent back...one of the reasons being tight sleeves. If the Caslon doesn't compare well to this, I think that is good to know. I do know that I have returned every Caslon piece I've ever ordered and decided last winter to give this brand a pass from then on. It is just last minute panic...FOMO! A light winter jacket was on my wish list and I didn't find it at NAS. I'll keep looking when actual Fall gets here.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caslon-shawl-collar-knit-jackettried-it#post-1532114 Sun, 02 Aug 2015 23:10:03 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1532114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried it in store, and wasn't wowed. The fabric was nice and on me the sleeves were OK in XL, but it fell strangely when opened, like the weight of the fabric pulled one side over more than the other. If you were going to wear it closed all the time I'd think it would be fine... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caslon-shawl-collar-knit-jackettried-it#post-1532110 Sun, 02 Aug 2015 23:04:55 +0000 Tanya 1532110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have also tried it, in purple,&nbsp; and returned it.&nbsp; The sleeves were too tight, the length a bit much.&nbsp; I have a somewhat similar Helmut Lang sweatshirt from last year and the Caslon one looked and felt really bad in comparison. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caslon-shawl-collar-knit-jackettried-it#post-1532106 Sun, 02 Aug 2015 23:00:57 +0000 Peri 1532106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm...sweatshirt weigh is perfect, but snug arms aren't. Anyone else have thoughts on this?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caslon-shawl-collar-knit-jackettried-it#post-1532100 Sun, 02 Aug 2015 22:46:29 +0000 Traci 1532100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a sweatshirt weight. &nbsp;I got it in the oatmeal color and returned it for black, then returned the black for funny fit.</p> <p>I ordered my normal size in Calson and there was something weird and pointy about the shoulders and the arms were more snug than my other calson jackets. &nbsp;It wasn't terrible, but I didn't love it, so back it goes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caslon-shawl-collar-knit-jackettried-it#post-1532082 Sun, 02 Aug 2015 21:45:15 +0000 Suz 1532082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm panicking, too, but lost my chance on the Vince sweater, alas. Unless it pops back before midnight....</p> <p>I don't know that one, Peri. But will bump the thread. &nbsp;;)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caslon-shawl-collar-knit-jackettried-it#post-1532063 Sun, 02 Aug 2015 21:19:48 +0000 Peri 1532063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Has anyone tried this jacket? I don't have a good history with Caslon, but as part of my last day "panic" I was taking another look through my Finds and this caught my eye again as a good maybe Fall jacket.</p> <p>If you've tried it, what did you think? How is the fit and the look? How is the weight and what temps would it be good for if worn over a light sweater? It didn't make the Angie picks, so it may not be worth trying...just wondering...and panicking!&nbsp;</p>
