For all houndstooth lovers out there

That is a great jacket. You are right that it does not have the usual bulky puffer look... more like, perhaps, quilting? Are you thinking of buying it?

It is to 'die for', as my 16yo, DD would say. (and so would I).

@El Cee: I am. Problem is I already own more winter jackets than my wardrobe space can handle (take a girl used to warm climates and throw her in deep freezing winter and that's what happens!) and I hate s.Oliver. There was not a single time I visited their actual brick-and-mortar shops and didn't get upset or badly treated/handled by the shop clerks. Plus two of the very expensive jeans I got there turned out to be weird. One was black and the color washed out super fast and the other - thankfully returned on time - just sat strange on my body: too tight on 36 (25/30) and too loose on 38 (26/30).

I understand about having more winter jackets than space can hold. I own at least 9. But, if you live in a cold climate, I do not think it is ridiculous to have a wide assortment of coats and jackets. You would be wearing them almost every day for 2 or 3 seasons. But you should not listen to me on this subject. I am a big enabler.

If this cute jacket fits with your climate, lifestyle and wardrobe, you need it!

Cute! I've never heard of them before but I like the plus size line they have. And apparently they have a store in Frankfurt -- maybe when I'm there in December I'll take a look!

Cute jacket, but yeah, I don't blame you for not buying it if the store has left a bad taste. I don't like to give my hard earned money to places where treating customers poorly is okay.

Hey, this is dangerous I need thin, soft down jacket.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience with sOliver staff and stuff. I am in general very happy with their goods, although the sizing of the jeans is quite erratic and depends a lot on the style. But I too have noticed very disproportional change in two sizes (in my case 42/36 and 44/36).

As for jacket, this sort packs to very little space. Which is why I want it - I need it for that extreme cold weather to layer under my regular jackets.
