True to size
I love the material. It’s very comfortable. It’s like having a Ralph Lauren jogging suit for a super low price. Definetly will buying more soon.

Color Untrue
Fabric is thin woven, it might work well for those in warmer climates, the fit was slightly larger than USA sizes, the color is two shades lighter than advertised, navy blue is actually a periwinkle blue. It arrived timely.
