Ladies who have the ON leather hoodie...
Permalink Closed


...can you please give a review? I'm thinking about buying it, and just wanted to know what you thought about the quality, fit, etc. Also, was it TTS, or did you go smaller/larger? And how is the length? I've been wanting the Mike and Chris hoodie for ages, but I don't think you can beat the price for the ON one...just wanted to know how you guys like it...


TIA!!

Same here.  My closest ON store is an hour away and I called them.  They have a S and an XL-one in black and one in brown (don't know which is the black).  Anyway, I am just wondering if I could wear the small but I don't want to drive over there before I know if it will fit.

this is a bad picture, but you get the idea. i am usually an 8 or m at old navy, and i got the large in the hoodie. i probably could have gotten away with the medium, but it smooshed my boobs. on mua, there is talk of shrinking the hoodie to be more fitted, and i might try that.

i really like it. i think it is nice quality for the price. (but i wouldn't have paid 150 for it)

while i think these run smaller than typical on stuff, if you aren't busty, you could probably just get your regular size.

stylediary user scriptkitten has better pictures.

I normally wear a small(i'm 34C) and I purchased a small, it is a "sleek" fit. I never would have paid $150. for it, but for $28 it's a total steal! I think the cut is super flattering. As for the length, it hits me right at the bottom of my waistband. I wear it with my aviators and pretend that i'm Angelina Jolie.

Quality is pretty good for being Old Navy....Especially for being $55!  (I bought it before the additional clearance the the focktards wouldn't PA it for me). 


I think it's fairly TTS.  I was surprised to get into a M though, since I usually need a L to accomadate my boobs in their jackets (I'm a very full 34C, potentially borderline D)...Maybe it's a teensy bit big then.  Length is slightly cropped, hitting me right at the top of my hips.


My 2 pics in it:

I haven't received mine yet. But from all the reviews I've heard, it's TTS. If you're busty the girls might get a little smooshed in your normal size, but sizing up would be too baggy.

And like Erin said, it's possible to shrink the jacket a bit. Here are the instructions:

"wash: regular cycle with cold water no soap
dryer: i can set the time on mine i only have one heat setting
after 10 min. still very wet
after 2nd 10 min: obvioulsy can tell its sh rinking, gave it like 5 minutes more than hung to dry

after awhile it was still very wet so i gave it 10 more minutes in dryer (this was like an hour later..) and then hung dry"

Thanks guys for all your feedback!!!


I went to two ON stores today and they're all out...but I'm going to try to call some stores in the burbs and see if by chance there's any left...


Can someone give me the style number if it's not too much of a hassle please???


Thanks again!!

I just did a charge send this afternoon -- ordered both S and M and will just return whichever one doesn't fit (or maybe sell it on eBay... the ones on there now are getting high!).


I can't wait to get it... thanks for the heads up, ladies.  Between the hoodie and my dolce vita shoes, I love ST now more than ever!


BTW, the style # is 435615-00-1 for the black one.


ETA: I ordered it from a store in Bloomington, Indiana... I called 800-Old-Navy first and they did a search for me.

Eurodaisy- if you want to sell your hoodie to a fellow ST girl, I'll gladly buy the one that doesn't fit from you...

Monica- I think a small would be best based on what all the girls are saying about the sizing...but maybe a medium would work as well?

I'm actually bidding on one now on ebay- the auction ends in about an hour, so if I don't win it, I would definitely appreciate your looking for me...thanks again for the very kind offer!!!!

You girls are the best!

ladies, what colors are those in the photos? Are either of those brown? If so, do you think they are distressed? I'm waiting for the brown to be delivered and I'm wondering if I should try and get the black.

 

thanks.

mine's black, there is just a lot of dirt on my mirror. the brown is distressed irl, but the black is not. i think they have very different vibes.
