SOFTEST JACKET EVER!
I love this jacket!
It fits a little loose, so you may want to size down if you like tight fits. I prefer a bit of room so I got my usual size 8 (I'm 5'6'', about 140 lbs).
The length is long enough to cover your bums.
It's a very soft and light jacket but fairly warm.
I haven't worn the jacket to work out.
Usually wear it around town and even at work.
Overall, extremely happy with the purchase.

In Stride Jacket *Pique
I really want to love this jacket! I got it for the holidays! It is soft, perfectly fit, warm. But, it is piling!!! The quality is just not there anylonger. I only wore this jacket maybe a few times and it's piling like crazy. I'm not sure what to do at this point. I don't have a receipt because I got this for the holidays and, as I said, I love the way it looks and fits, but I can not deal with the piling. Most of it is upfront where the zipper is.
Anyone has a suggestion?
Thanks

Blanket of loveliness
I am a relatively new lulu buyer, and this jacket was my first. At $118, it was a pretty big leap for me, too! I bought it because I'm going on a long trip, to tour Japan and China. I needed something versatile I could wear under my trench in case it got too cold....or something lighter than my trench I could wear when it warms up. This jacket is just what I needed. It's trim, and so soft. The lulu stitching on the front is very subtle, which I like. It's nice and snug in the hips, but not in the waist. I don't think this jacket fits as big as some others have said. I'm a 10, and I ordered a 12 because I'm international and would rather err on the side of larger rather than smaller. It turned out to fit well, but probably not as snug as it's supposed to fit. I guess I'm saying I think it runs true to size.
Anyway, it's really cute and versatile--it doesn't look like an exclusively athletic piece. I am going to play around with it some more, because I bet with the right top/skirt combo, I could make it into casual wear by belting it, adding a scarf, and unzipping the bottom. Might be a longshot, but worth a try. Otherwise, this jacket will be the perfect travel companion. Good purchase.

Best jacket ever!
I wasn't so sure about this jacket when I saw it online but after trying it on in the store there was no question whether or not I was going to purchase it. The material is SO soft. I'm certain I will be wearing this not only to and from the gym but around the house, on errands- I just don't think I will be able to get enough of it!! Also, being tall, I appreciate the longer length. I'm 5'10, 145 lbs and a size 6. I wear a 6 in CR and an 8 in lulu jackets usually but the size 6 fit perfectly. Definitely my new favorite jacket :)

Luv it!!
If you love strides you will love, love this! Softer and stretchier than the Luon type Strides, but just makes it even more versatile. Have several Strides and love them, but when I tried this on I had to have it and purchased immediately. I usually take an 8 in strides and hoodies for the roominess to layer, but sized down to a 6 in this one and it is a looser fit naturally due to the material. I am 5'7.5", 155lbs (for now! ha!) and medium build. Get it and enjoy!! :)

LOVE THIS JACKET
I bought this jacket in store on Sunday and really don't want to ever take it off. It is sooo soft and comfortable, it's unbelievable. Size 6 fit perfect for me; I am a size 6 in pants too. I love the print on this, it's seems to go with everything. I think I am now in love with In Stride jackets, they are just so amazing! I wouldn't change a thing about this jacket; it's like it was made for me. 5 stars all around, and if you're on the edge about buying this, DO IT!

Wow
I tried this baby on in the store and all I can say is OMG it is so uber soft and comfie. I'm usually a 6 or 8 in tops for Lulu, 5'5, 125lbs and 36c and I felt the 6 was too roomy for me.
It fits long which is nice but it does stretch out more than I expected so a 4 probably would be a nice fit for me.

So glad it came back!!
I wanted this jacket so badly last year, but between the time I added it to my cart and went to check out online, it had already sold out. I was so excited to see this back that I went to the nearest store and picked one up. There was only one left in my size at the time. I love the pique material, it just feels so cozy. I can wear this with workout clothes, but also with jeans.
I agree with other reviewers that it is a little roomier than I expected, and I was told that the pique is extra stretchy. You probably want to size down for a more fitted look or keep your regular size if you want a little extra room.

Lovin' it!!!
Material is soft, comfy and stretchy. A nice charcoal grey colour with a slightly textured look. I also ended up sizing down as my usual size felt and looked too loose...great with both comfy pants and jeans!

softest jacket
This jacket is light but super soft, comfortable and cozy. The fit s really great too. I went a size down since this is a tad roomier but I like my jackets fitted.
