Urban CoCo Women's Color Block Shawl Wrap Open Front Poncho Cape

Comment

**updated 1-11-19** Love this even more than I did a year ago. It is so versatile. I work in an area that varies in temp from 60 to 74. Frequently adding layers and removing. I have my winter coat on when the wrap is not enough, and then will fold it up and lay it on my lap. Its amazing. When I wear it it is long enough that it comes over my shoulders and can drape over my knees, keeping my lap warm too. Nothing negative to say about this at all. Love it! ************** when I got this, I was not thrilled initially, because it felt so thin. however, after I washed and dried it, it seemed to fluff up a bit, and goodness, is it warm! its deceiving! I recently started a new job, and the cube where I work is directly under a overactive a/c vent - blowing massive icy air on me during the day. I have been wearing a sweater, a heavy fall jacket, and a light jacket - many times all at once, to make it tolerable. I ordered this, and was able to wear just one jacket and this, before it got TOO warm - and I ended up being able to take it off. today was the first day in 2 weeks I felt warm enough to not need at least one jacket during the day (This helped bring up my core temp enough that I was ok after wearing it for a short time, instead of trying to bring up the temp all day long). Highly recommend!

This was literally delivered overnight! And I dont even have Prime! ITA w/ the reviewers whove said that this item may be best on taller women, because the back of the shawl hangs longer than the front, so it might be too long for shorter folks. The material is very warm, and my only issue is that the material doesnt have a soft drape, & is a little stiff. Im thinking about swishing it gently in some water, laying out flat, then fluffing on no-heat in the dryer to soften it up. Ill be flying cross country soon, and will definitely be using it on the plane! For those of you whod like a lighter weight and somewhat smaller wrap, I suggest the one offered by "Timemory", tho its not as substantially made as this one. (I have it in beige/white)

It’s like a gigantic blanket with a slit. I cannot wear this in public and be taken seriously. It would be good for sitting around a bonfire or standing on a street corner? There’s also a few random strings sticking off from the stitching. I think the stitches would unravel with washing.

You know those really thin, cheap, fleece blankets you get for $2 at Walmart on Black Friday? This is the same material, its just more loosely woven and it sheds. The stitching around the outside of the poncho resembles very cheap fleece blanket stitching, I cant imagine it holding up for long. This might be fine to wrap around yourself at a football game for light warmth, but this isnt the poncho to buy if youre looking for a quality, fashionable article of clothing. Im so disappointed. Returning it.
