The arms are very long
I am five foot five. I ordered a 14, which is what I normally take in tops. My fingertips do not emerge from the end of the sleeves, which is not a problem I have had before. Whilst I could use the velcro cuffs, I still have a lot of excess jacket sleeve it is just now above my hands. Thoroughly disappointed in the jacket.

Great jacket although the zip
Great jacket although the zip is very stiff and so takes a while to do up and I feel like it may break

Sizing variations to watch
Jacket is a great design. I struggled between the size 10-12, 10 was a perfect snug sleek fit but sleeves were a tad long though acceptable however impractical to wear in any cool weather as there was not any space to layer with jumpers and its hardly a coat to stay warm in so layers are required. Ended up buying the size 12 because of it which was which works better for layering but the sleeve size is ridiculously size at 2inch's longer on the arms. The size change here is OTT for an arm length. As I really liked the jacket I took the option on the crazy arm length as the forfeit to enable jumper layering to keep warm with the rain coat on. Once I velcro'ed the the sleeve at the wrist side it was wearable but of course lots of extra fabric crunched up at the arms. Not the best of looks but no one would notice when it's rainy and dark as you just need to stay war, with layering. I also found the same issues with Rab trekking trousers size 10 a snug fit then a size 12 falling off my waist and huge, ended up returning the trousers. The variation between a size 10-12 at Rob is too oversized. And starting to move away to other premium brands that seem to be doing a better job on the sizing front these days without much variation in costs. Hope your items fit for those choosing between a size 10-12.
