This is a really nice layering piece. I have worn it nearly every day since receiving it. I didn't pay close enough attention to the material pre-ordering: I assumed it would be 100% merino. It's not, but that's my fault for not checking. The nylon content means it's a bit staticky. Gorgeous colour. Hood is generous - doesn't fit too close like a more technical garment would. I love this and would order it again. I'm 5'9", 185ish, 51 years, 46" bust, and XL is perfect.
