"I was so disappointed when I saw how huge the legs on this skirt were. The construction and material were beautiful and the size was perfect. BUT the legs were just enormous and I sent them back."

"I love the classic style. It is well made and very soft and comfortable. The size 10 was a perfect fit for me. I would like to order the matching jacket, but will wait until it is on sale."

Donegal Skirt,
December 17, 2012
By: kerispal
from Southern Michigan
"I looked at this skirt a long time before I decided to spend the $150+ shipping. It is a pretty skirt, but it came to my ankles. It is very long. The fit is good otherwise. I was very disappointed in the fabric, though. It is very scratchy, like burlap. I was surprised since the other reviews mostly commented on what nice fabric it was. It was creased from shipping and even after hanging in a steamy bathroom the wrinkles did not hang out. I'm glad so many others love the skirt, but that was not my experience.
I am still a loyal Orvis customer,"

Absolutely love this split skirt.,
December 17, 2012
By: DobbsFerryLady
from Dobbs Ferry, NY
"I bought this split skirt to match the Donegal Tweed Jacket with standup collar blouse. I was not disappointed. Excellent quality and workmanship. Looks beautiful with the jacket. The jacket and skirt (both the regular skirt, which I purchased, too, and the split skirt) have a very classic, timeless look. I would definitely recommend this to a friend."

Too Long & Bulky looking,
November 28, 2012
By: supermom210
"I am 5'4" tall and this split skirt went all the way to my ankles. I ordered a size six and it was plenty roomy. Not at all what is pictured. I had such great expectations for this and was really disappointed."

"I was very much looking forward to wearing the tweed split shirt; it reminded my of my riding days. Unfortunately it didn't fit because of a device in my abdomen and the Petite in 10 was not available. It's a regal feeling split skirt and the jacket completes the outfit."

"As good as this split skirt looks on the webpage, it's even better when you see it at home and feel the material. Extremely well made and good looking.
I ordered my normal size and the fit was good,if a little snug. It's fully lined and the tweed is gorgeous!"

Dye lots,
February 17, 2012
By: wingthorn
from Toronto, ON
"I've been wanting this split skirt for ages and finally ordered it. It arrived quickly and in good shape and fits beautifully. I was mildly surprised to see that the Donegal tweed of the split skirt is slightly darker than the skirt I bought four years ago. Dye lots do differ - if you want a jacket to go with it, it's probably a good idea to order both at the same time to ensure that they're the same dye lot. I'm sorry the vest is no longer available!"

Disappointed,
February 2, 2012
By: Pezz
from Springfield, Ohio
"I looked at this split skirt for months before breaking down and ordering it. It is a serious disappointment. The fabric is bulky and rough like burlap, not a fine grade wool as I would have expected for $100. It is shapeless and it's exceptionally long even on me and I'm 5' 9". Now I have to pay to return it - this will be my last order from Orvis."

Split Skirt for the Ultra Skinny,
January 30, 2012
By: sahra
"This split skirt has a matching jacket and it is a great set, but no split skirt has ever been flattering unless you happen to very skinny. I purchased it anyway because it was such a beautiful set, but I don't wear the skirt nearly as often as I do the jacket!!"

"when I opened the bag, there were creases where they were folded.
but the next day, they were completely gone. so I'm impressed with the quality of material.
I'm 5'03 and it comes a bit longer (than the photograph), but, it means, I can wear even ankle boots and it'll be warmer too. so I'm totally satisfied with the product."

Split skirt,
December 5, 2011
By: Keren
from London
"Tnhe name split skirt is silly considering for years they were called cullottes. I love them and although I bought a brown pair and a black pair the brown has yet to arrive. The cut is not brilliant and most definitely problems for me and my back with the high waist and not comfortable. I do like them and if necessary I will have them altered."
