I'll start by saying, as far as style and comfort go, this is 5/5 star jacket. That said, I simply can't give a product five stars that immediately requires even minor functional repair as soon as it arrives. I ding it a star due to the hanging loop on the inside liner not being fully attached to the outer shell, making this feature practically useless for fear of damaging the liner. It's a simple fix, and I mentioned this to the Threyda support team, so hopefully this is fixed for future jackets or simply a defect that I received.
It is hard to describe how incredible both the art and the effort that went into printing and lining up the fabrics for this jacket. One simply has to see it in person to behold its full awesomeness! The subtle gradations of hue and geometry that Andy Gilmore uses is astounding and is only better viewed in person. I've probably spent as much time looking at the jacket as I have wearing it.
My favorite part is the gloss black transfer on the back: it is subtle, yet in the right lighting it pops out like a deep sea creature visible just beneath the surface. As you move in various light sources, it is nearly holographic! Unreal!
The quality of the materials are evidently high. Lighter in weight than their heavyweight hoodies, yet even warmer! I can wear this jacket with a tshirt only in winter and be pretty warm. Add another layer underneath, perfect! I was worried about the size at first, but it is a very sleek and tailored fit, no prob.
