Misleading Sizing and Poor Quality"
Style: Jacket, Color: Hot Pink, Size: 34
​"Extremely disappointed with the sizing; even for a slim fit, this felt like it was made for a child. The material felt cheap and the construction was subpar, more like a costume than a professional suit separator. Had to return it immediately."
