Very bold styling , pattern and color. I got the green and found it to be a little too "loud" for a 50 year old man. :-) I may have kept it though and worn it on days that I felt it appropriate to be "fashion forward" ... but it runs large and the size I normally order ended up being too large for me. So, having to send it back because of size gave me excuse to send it back because of color too. The plaid makes you look bigger than you are anyway and the size running "large" makes it even worse. I think this is a young man's jacket and I am not "cool" or "hip" enough to pull it off! Ha.
