TNF pumori is an excellent jacket. Warm, soft but not wind or water proof, though. Perfect for fall and winter campus life in the Northwest (with an umbrella!).
I'm 5'5", about 120 lbs, small frame, slightly longer torso, and I ordered both the XS and S to compare. I found the S to be too wide, especially around the underarms and shoulder, but the sleeves were perfect. The XS fits much better, but the sleeves were too short (comes down to bony part of my wrist); this problem was easily solved by layering the XS over any hoodie or sweatshirt or t-shirt with longer sleeves.
The Pumori jacket length is longer than the TNF Apex Bionic, Windwall 1 & 2 jackets, and the back is approx. 1.5 inches longer at the longest point.
I just bought this jacket and I love it! Previously, I had purchased the North Face Windwall 1 jacket from Backcountry. That too is a great jacket and does an excellent job of blocking out the wind. The pumori jacket fits me better than the windwall --especially in the arms. The cuffs on the sleeves fit just fine -- not too loose and not too tight. Overall, the jacket fits true to size -- it is fitted but not too fitted and very flattering too. I bought the brownie brown color and it looks great! I will definitely be wearing the jacket all winter long!
I love this fleece jacket, which is not only warm but incredibly comfortable and soft as well. It works well by itself in the fall, or under another jacket in the winter. I constantly reach for this jacket not only for its warmth, but because wearing it is just so darn comfortable! Stylish, practical, and warm.
