Nike 24.7 PerfectStretch

I love this jacket! The fabric, fit, style, and versatility is amazing. Sizing: I’m a consistent plus size 1X. This jacket fit perfectly in a large. So, you may want to size down. Fabric: The fabric is soft and luxurious. It falls beautifully and feels lightweight but sturdy. The best part is that it does not wrinkle, making it perfect for traveling. It also has some stretch to it so you have full range of motion and comfort. Style: trench coat style with two details that elevate it to top tier status. The adjustable draw cord at the waist add definition to your waist. The pleats pair perfectly with the cinched in waist. They add a stylish element combined with the fabric, make it move well and give such a polished look. There are snaps on the sleeve that give you the option of making them more tailored or leaving them fully open. Versatility: This jacket can be dressed up or down. It pairs well with leggings, tee shirt, and sneakers to give you a put together look. It also looks great with business casual and can easily be worn as an all day outfit piece. As a plus sized woman, it’s hard to find high quality, comfortable, and stylish. This jacket competes at the highest level of the athleisure wear game and wins.

The beige color I got is a nice neutral to pair with almost everything. It's very lightweight and can easily fit a large tote or easily in a carry-on or overnight bag. The material reminds me of workout pants which is perfect to wear when you need a light coat/jacket without overheating. The sizing is very off in my opinion. I got an XL coat (normally wear L/XL) but the XL fit HUGE. The bungee waist is a nice touch to make the coat more fitting but having the wrong size did not help. Even if I wore a hoodie underneath, the coat would still be oversized. I would like for it to have been a little more fitted. Had this coat fit correctly it would definitely be a part of my rotation for year round wear.

I had such high hopes for this Nike 24.7 PerfectStretch Women’s Dri-Fit Oversized Trench Coat. It just did not fit my body correctly. The trench coat itself is beautifully made. I love the dri-FIT material, I love the neutral color of the coat, and I love the lightness of the coat. This coat is so lightweight that I felt like I wasn’t wearing it. The mesh on the upper back also makes this coat so breathable. The label says this coat was engineered to the exact specifications of championship athletes. I do feel like I could wear this at a swim meet. Now, we get to the reason why I gave it such a low rating. This coat is way too big for my frame. The sleeves go past the knuckles on my hands and the width of the coat engulfs me. The coat does come with a cinching waist to help make the coat fit your frame. I just could not get the waist cinched tight enough to make it look right on my body. The snaps also throw me off. I do realize snaps are easy to undo but they take a minute to snap into place. The pleats in the coat also are detracting for me. I don’t think they work for this coat and the purpose of it. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this coat.
