I'm looking at the pic with the lady wearing the black crb ll. she is gorgeously fit (omg fitness goals!). but that crb ll is making her back look bad. and it is not her fault; it's the stupid idiotic design of the tank!
Nothing could make that woman's back look bad! I was so distracted by her magnificence that I didn't even notice that she was wearing the crappy new crb. I actually had to scroll back up to check.
I love this colour too <3 I don't have any light purple Swiftlies so splurged on this long sleeve version and hope we'll be getting the short sleeve version too. So pretty, and yes it totally looks like a Disney Princess colour :)
So agree about the CRB II. LIke a thong for the back, but not in a good way. Everytime I see one it just makes me sad that it has replaced the beloved CRB, which I am sure has been justified at all levels of LLL, but as a customer feels like a very deliberately alienating move.
I really like my Rush Hour Jacket in Deepest Magenta. My sister bought the Blue Sapphire online and although the colour is beautiful there is a weird pucker of fabric on the hem that sticks out on the side of the jacket. It is a serious flaw that ruins the look and she had to return it. She ordered another one since this colour is not available in store. There is a review online that refers to this so my sister was not the only one who got one like this and I don't know if it is just the Blue Sapphire that has this flaw.
I need to see this jacket in person and decide if I want to buy it. I already have the Influx jacket in Plum and it looks almost identical in design and color. I know some of the features are different but it is hard to justify the price when I have something so similar looking.
I agree with you anon 7:54. Same here, have the In Flux in Plum. This one is nice and I love glyde/rulu jackets but at this price going to pass.
I actually really love In Flux Jackets and wish they would bring them back in a bunch of new colours (jet set blue or tofino teal, moonlit magenta, etc). I find them to be really flattering and are great for multipurpose use, love them!
@anon 8:20AM - I am anon 7:54AM and I LOVE the Influx jackets. so far I have 3 of them (Plum, Black and Inkwell) and I wish I had bought more. I find the cut so flattering too (especially the back). I wear them at work (they are so stylish) but also while hiking (so breathable and they dry fast).
Off topic. Is the wee are from space material in the nimbus battleship/seal grey soft like bruised berry wafs, or cashew/black wafs or has it changed with the new luxtreme change? Thanks.
I wouldn't say the In Flux Jacket is similar to the Rush Hour Jacket. The Influx is swift fabric which is not as warm and cozy as rulu. The Rush Hour is all rulu inside with glyde panels and sleeves over top. The Rush Hour has a stowable hood and reflectivity and I would say the body is not as snug as the In Flux depending on what size you go for. I wouldn't consider the In Flux a Fall jacket where the Rush Hour Jacket definitely is.
I like the rush hour jacket in that color!

DeleteI love that moonlit magenta swiftly color. It reminds me of Rapunzel from Tangled the movie. :)
ReplyDeleteomg yes! you are right :)
