Product Question Did they change the Mega Zip design/fit recently?
The first one I bought about a year ago was an XS. After a couple of weeks, I kinda regretted it because the back felt just slightly too short & it’s all I could think about while wearing it lol.
So I bought my next one in a Small. Even then, I've still felt the back was a bit shorter than I'd like, although the extra fabric/upsizing made it less noticeable.
HOWEVER—
Today I tried on a couple of the new Indigo Effect mega zips in store, both in an XS, and both seemed objectively longer in the back than my older ones. I absolutely LOVE IT, it’s like they finally fit the way they were always supposed to.
I'll have to compare them side-by-side at home yet but….am I imagining this? Has anyone else noticed a recent change in the fit or length, particularly of the back of the hoodie?

I think they were previously cut to arch up above the butt (which I feel is kind of ridiculous)... https://www.reddit.com/r/Aritzia/comments/1gxfyhw/comment/lyl82fs/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
I can see the change in the stock photos! No Stress Medium on the left, Flashing Red on the right.

Yes! I actually just got home & can even tell a massive difference just when they’re hanging up.
The XS now fits more like a S - & the back is probably an inch longer at least.
Also, the pockets are way easier to find now, somehow.

Yes thank you they definitely changed the design, people thought I was crazy here before and that I just shrunk it in the dryer
