Did you see these longer jackets?

Looks like it could be two sweatshirts - with material from the 2nd one attached to add to the length...you wouldn't see the seam because of the way the fabric is added (looks like a QAYG/Flip-and-Sew technique).

I like that longer length. I especially like the black one. Boy that pink one - they would see you coming.

Remember the longer sweat jackets from the 90's,I think? I had a purple one. I was think of trying one of them. I really liked the length on them and if you cover it with fabric you would see those pills all over it.lol I have a gray one and a red one sitting here now just waiting for me to have a day with nothing else to do.HA HA ...hehehe hehe
