Reveiw: Ibex Pingo Jacket

[GLC1968]

The blue does match my bike

Indeed it does...perfectly if I might add. I have the blue and I LOVE this jacket. I find that it's actually the best "bike to off-bike" jacket I own. As Knot says, it works beautifully on the bike in an active situation, but it also looks really sharp when worn with more professional clothing too. I've worn mine in a downpour (walking the dogs, not on the bike) and it shed all the water. I stayed perfectly dry.

I'm borderline between a medium and a small in Ibex stuff and I got the medium in the Pingo. It fits well over the small items, but it also fits comfortably over my medium Carrie hoodies.

Oh Catherine, you tempt me so............ I knew she would match Isis perfectly.

*If* I get it, do you think I should get the small or medium. Everything else I have in ibex is small and fits good, but they are items that stretch over my bust which I gather this wouldn't do. I did try the medium kates on I sent you and thought they were too loose......... But I too feel like I am right on the edge as well between small and medium, just more like on the small end. I guess I could always order both and send one back...... or not order anything............

Trisk - I think you'd like the Medium better...for the chest room. I think it helps to have a little more room for the air to circulate. The advantage to this jacket is that it's not long, so a larger size wouldn't look as large as it might in another style, you know? I hangs beautifully, so I don't think you'd have it bagging anywhere. Am I even making any sense?
