Thanks for the excellent review.&nbsp;</p> <p>I can see you wear this under coats too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-last-minute-nas-review-zella-water-resistant-hooded-jacket#post-2214341 Fri, 06 Aug 2021 15:39:25 +0000 Diana 2214341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A little update: I wore this jacket yesterday, which was rainy, and it performed super well! &nbsp;It kept me dry and I did not overheat. &nbsp;I even wore it indoors in the really cold microscope room at work, and it did not impede my range of motion at all (which is an issue for me with many jackets, even some blazers, given some of the tasks I do at work). &nbsp;The sleeves are fitted enough to scrunch and stay up if I need them out of the way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-last-minute-nas-review-zella-water-resistant-hooded-jacket#post-2214046 Thu, 05 Aug 2021 14:51:07 +0000 rachylou 2214046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s cute! My Zella from aeons ago is still going strong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-last-minute-nas-review-zella-water-resistant-hooded-jacket#post-2213939 Thu, 05 Aug 2021 00:19:40 +0000 BrieN 2213939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m about the same height as you but starting to think I have short arms, LOL. Will have to see if I can find it in store. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-last-minute-nas-review-zella-water-resistant-hooded-jacket#post-2213891 Wed, 04 Aug 2021 19:45:38 +0000 Diana 2213891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brie, they're long (cover half my hand) but meant to be that way, because of the thumb holes (which hit at the right place on me). I like my jacket sleeves to be this long anyway so it works for me.&nbsp;</p> <p>My arms are long for my height, but I'm only 5'3.5".&nbsp; </p> ETA: the sleeve length on me is like the photo of the red one on Angie's reply. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-last-minute-nas-review-zella-water-resistant-hooded-jacket#post-2213889 Wed, 04 Aug 2021 19:09:46 +0000 BrieN 2213889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s a nice jacket. Can you comment on the sleeve length? I stopped ordering Zella tops because the sleeves were always so long on me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-last-minute-nas-review-zella-water-resistant-hooded-jacket#post-2213883 Wed, 04 Aug 2021 18:39:51 +0000 Angie 2213883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great and thank you,&nbsp;<b>Diana!</b> I can see it work well for you. Here is the red </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-last-minute-nas-review-zella-water-resistant-hooded-jacket#post-2213872 Wed, 04 Aug 2021 17:37:18 +0000 Diana 2213872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One of the things I was looking for during NAS was a rain jacket for warmer weather. &nbsp;I posted earlier about the Pendleton raincoat, which I sent back both because the fit wasn't right for me, and because it was way too warm for what I wanted.</p> <p>I also ordered this Zella jacket once it came back into stock, which obviously has a very different vibe than the Pendleton jacket, and I think it's a winner. &nbsp;The fabric is very stretchy and comfortable and feels way less stifling than the Pendleton did. &nbsp;There are also mesh vents in various places to add with breathability, which I really like. Here, we get a lot of warm, humid rainy days in the summer, and it's so easy to overheat/get sweaty in your rain gear. &nbsp;The down side to the comfier fabric is that I don't think it's 100% waterproof (it does not profess to be, just water resistant) but I splashed some water on it and it does bead up instead of soaking in so I think it'll be OK for most rain. &nbsp;</p> <p>Also it has nice roomy zip-up pockets, a good sized hood, and thumb holes, all of which are plusses for me.</p> <p>It runs quite small, as all the reviews seem to suggest as well. &nbsp;I got a large; a medium would fit because it's quite stretchy but would be skintight on me. &nbsp;</p> <p>I got it in black, and it looks quite sleek. &nbsp;(It also comes in a tomato red, which is not my thing but looks cool as well; I do think the red looks more gearish than the black.)&nbsp;</p> <p>Sorry, no photos! &nbsp;I'm at work right now, but if anyone is really interested I could snap a couple at home later tonight.&nbsp; </p>
