I love this jacket, I have two of them actually. That being said, I can't really wear them out in public anymore because after a couple of months of wearing it frequently, parts of the fuzz matt down and the damage is not fixable. It's just how the fabric wears. So I still wear them at home, but I don't really wear them out because the matted fuzz makes it look like you've been wearing the jacket for at least a week without taking it off once. It's a lot worse with the light colored ones, I have a black one and the matting is not as apparent.

I am a pretty small framed person and wear a boys youth large in my north face jacket. However i made a wrong choice going with the womens extra small! I am 5'3 so im not tall but it was too short in the arms and when i sat down. It is still a Very very nice jacket and very warm!

This is the second monkey jacket I...well, me and my husband have purchased. He got me one for Valentine's Day last year in the espresso color. The jacket is fitted, warm, and washes easily. I haven't had any trouble with the fabric matting down. Even if it starts to do that, I wouldn't care. The functionality is fantastic and that's what I care about.
My mom loved mine, so as a Christmas gift for this year, I went ahead and purchased one for her in the winter white. And what a steal of a deal! I got the jacket for about one hundred dollars cheaper than my husband purchased mine for. Shop early and save!
Anyway, again, I haven't had trouble at all with the jacket. I am a fitness instructor and wear this to the gym all the time. That means I wash it bi-weekly to keep the deodorant and sweat off of it. Hold up great. Ready for winter to get here so I can get it out of the closet.
