I was skeptical about the drawstring waist on a jacket but it genuinely shapes the silhouette without looking weird or bunchy. Cinched in, it looks almost tailored. Released, it's relaxed and easy. Ordered the blue in a medium and it fits exactly as described.
The side pockets fit my phone and keys with room to spare, which honestly sold me. My only minor issue is the zipper pull is a little stiff at first, but it's loosened up after a few weeks of wear.
Threw this over a chunky turtleneck and jeans last Saturday and got three compliments before noon. The stand collar gives it this intentional, put-together look that my old zip-ups never had. The beige color is warm and goes with basically everything in my closet.
The blue is this deep, rich shade that photographs beautifully and looks even better in person. I've worn it over a white long-sleeve and straight-leg trousers twice this week already. At $69.99 this is genuinely one of the better jacket buys I've made.
The jacket is cute and the collar is sharp, but the oversized silhouette is more oversized than I expected even with the drawstring pulled in. I'm 5'4 and ordered a small, and it still felt a bit boxy through the shoulders. The pockets and material are great though, so I kept it.
Grabbed the beige in a medium and it fits exactly how I hoped. The drawstring waist is the detail that makes it, because you can actually shape how it sits on you instead of just hoping for the best. Wore it over a cream turtleneck on a Saturday morning and got three compliments before noon.
The stand collar zips up really cleanly and gives the whole jacket a polished look without being stiff. I sized down to a small hoping for a more fitted silhouette with the drawstring cinched, and it works great. Only thing I wish is that the pockets were just a touch deeper, but they're still actually usable which is more than I can say for most women's jackets.
Bought this for those in-between spring mornings and it's been on rotation constantly. The lightweight polyester doesn't feel cheap at all, it actually drapes really nicely. I have it in beige and I'm considering ordering the blue too.
This is my go-to morning layer now, just easy and sharp looking without any effort. The beige color is a little lighter than the photos suggest, but it still works with my wardrobe. Overall really happy with this purchase.
The stand collar zipped all the way up looks incredibly clean and structured. It's the kind of jacket that looks like you thought hard about your outfit when you really just grabbed it off the hook. Medium fits me perfectly at a size 6.
I was worried the polyester would feel cheap but it really doesn't. The jacket has a nice weight to it for spring layering without making you overheat, and the full-zip closure keeps everything looking clean and intentional. This is exactly the kind of piece I reach for when I want to look put together without actually thinking about it.
The structure and the stand collar are genuinely great, and the beige color is a lovely neutral. My issue is that even on mild autumn days I found myself overheating with just a light layer underneath, so the temperature window for wearing this is narrower than I expected. Still a good jacket, just not the all-season layer I was hoping for.
So many jackets in this style swallow you whole and you look shapeless. The drawstring waist on the Esther actually lets you decide how you want it to fit that day, cinched when I want to look polished, relaxed when I just want cozy. Bought the blue in a medium and already ordered the beige.
The silhouette is really flattering and the stand collar gives it that structured look that makes a basic outfit feel finished. The zipper pull is a little stiff right out of the box, but it's loosened up after a few wears. The beige is a perfect warm neutral and I'm glad I went true to size.
Layered this over my ribbed turtleneck exactly like the description suggests and it looked so good. The stand collar sits right above the turtleneck in this really intentional way. My coworker asked where I got it within five minutes of walking in.
There's nothing flashy about this jacket and that's exactly why I love it. The beige with the stand collar just looks clean and put together every single time. I've worn it at least a dozen times since it arrived and it still looks brand new.
The product description sold me on the turtleneck-and-jeans combo and I am here to confirm it is as good as advertised. The stand collar and the turtleneck together create this really clean layered look that feels intentional. At $69.99 this is genuinely one of the better buys I've made this season.
The relaxed oversized cut is exactly what I was looking for, and the drawstring means I'm not stuck with one look. I took off one star because the color I received in beige was slightly warmer than it appeared on screen, but it's still a beautiful shade and I've kept it.
Seventy dollars for a jacket that looks and feels this good is a solid deal. The construction feels thoughtful, the zipper is smooth, and the drawstring waist actually stays tied the way you set it. Really pleased with this one.
Some stand collar jackets feel like armor but this one is actually comfortable to move around in all day. The lightweight polyester is breathable enough for warmer autumn afternoons but still provides that layer of structure I was after. Sized a medium and the fit is genuinely ideal.
What I like most is that it makes zero-effort outfits look like I actually tried. Jeans and a long sleeve under this jacket and I look like I have my life together. The drawstring is a small detail that makes a big difference in how the whole thing sits.
The silhouette is really nice and the stand collar is exactly what I wanted. But the polyester fabric is thinner than I expected for a jacket and it feels a little flimsy when you hold it. It works for mild weather but I wouldn't call it a jacket for anything under 50 degrees.
Never owned a stand collar jacket before and now I get why people love them. It just adds this quiet sharpness to even the most basic outfit. The beige is a warm neutral that works with basically my entire wardrobe.
Perfect weight for those in-between spring mornings when a coat is too much but a cardigan isn't enough. The full-zip closure means I can open it up as the day warms up and it still looks intentional. Got the blue and it goes with more than I expected.
This is exactly what I wanted for cool spring mornings before it warms up by midday. The lightweight build means I can toss it in my bag without thinking about it. Only knocked one star because the beige ran slightly more cream-toned than I expected, not a dealbreaker at all.
I've worn this jacket every single week since it arrived two months ago. The blue holds its color really well through washing and the drawstring hasn't frayed or loosened. At this price point I genuinely expected less and got more.
