Anne –
This longer length really works for me. I have both lengths and being 5ft 2in I thought this would be too long however it works great for a little extra coverage.
Can’t say I get out Fishing much but great for all other outdoor things.
Special thanks to Danielle for her sizing support and quick responses.
Recommend highly.
