Designed For Travel
There’s a lot more to these multi-pocket travel jackets and sweatshirts than meets the eye—literally. There are 15 built-in features (and plenty of pockets) that stealthily streamline traveling and free up hands.
The durable multi-taskers are the creation of Hiral Sanghavi and Yoganshi Shah. Hiral was cycling through neck pillows at a high rate—nine in three months—so Yoganshi thought up a jacket design with a built-in pillow.
From there, the couple kept solving as many travel problems as they could in one jacket—without adding unwanted bulk. So their designs include an eye mask, integrated gloves, a stylus-pen-combo in the zipper, and designated pockets for tablets, phones, drinks, and more.
The travelers among us were impressed with the functionality of the lightweight rain jacket and the cozy (but not boxy) sweatshirt. The best part? Discovering a new hidden feature each day.

10/20/2017 11:43 AMI see that in the Windbreaker your sizes only go to Large for woman, and the others only to XXL. Do you have a time frame to be offering these jackets for Plus Size women?
Candy
10/20/2017 11:58 AM@Judy I had same question. After reviewing, I checked the men's items and it appears they are so similar one could not tell the difference between the two. I'd say it's fairly likely we could get a men's jacket as they have much more generous sizes available.
@Ann could you confirm?

10/20/2017 12:14 PM@Candy Hi Candy! Yes, I would agree with your comments above. The arms will be a little bit longer with the men's jackets but you will have more room in the waist...etc. I usually wear a size 14 or XL in my jackets and have an XL for men's in the sweatshirt and XL in men's in the windbreaker and they both fit great!

10/20/2017 11:59 AM@Judy Hi Judy! Unfortunately, the larger sizes for women, the XL and 2XL are out of stock.However, I usually wear an XL in women's and instead ordered a Men's XL and that worked for me. That might be an option for you as well. Please refer to the size chart to see what will work best for you.

10/20/2017 12:02 PMAre the bomber jackets water resistant?
Ann – Special Guest
10/20/2017 12:10 PM@Karin Hi Karin! Yes, our bomber jackets are water-resistant. One of our employees recently got caught in a downpour here in the Washington state (which is quite common) and said he was glad he had his bomber jacket on!
Judy
10/20/2017 12:31 PMSorry, another question...... Are these machine washable? What is the recommended cleaning method?
Also, thanks for the mens sizes as a recommendation. Unfortunately, it appears that the mens Bomber Jacket doesn't come in that pretty lighter blue, but the Windbreaker does.
Ann – Special Guest
10/20/2017 1:20 PM@Judy Yes. All the jackets are machine washable. Sorry that we do not carry the color you are looking for maybe we will have a new color that you like next year...stay tuned!
Jay
10/20/2017 12:38 PMHi, I saw that red was the only option for the XL size of the Men's Travel Windbreaker. Is that the only color made in that size? Are the other colors temporarily out of stock? I like the jacket, but would purchase blue or black.
Ann – Special Guest
10/20/2017 1:27 PM@Jay Hi Jay! Yes, unfortunately the XL is out of stock in the other colors right now. However, please feel free to reach out to the friendly customer service staff at The Grommet for any future updates.

10/20/2017 12:42 PMDoes not come in plus sizes. Half of women in US are over size 14. You are missing sales.
Ann – Special Guest
10/20/2017 1:16 PM@Barb Hi Barb! Because we do not currently offer plus sizes for women, we recommend looking at the sizing chart for the men's jackets. My female colleague wears a size 18-20 and ordered the XL men's windbreaker and was very happy with the fit.

10/20/2017 1:29 PMHi Ann. I will be in Scotland from March - May 2018. I really like the features of the Women's Travel Bomber Jacket. Do you plan to make it with "waterproof" material instead of "water repellent" or "water resistant"/ Carol
Ann – Special Guest
10/20/2017 1:38 PM@Carol Hi Carol! Lucky you! Even though our bomber is not technically waterproof it will still keep you warm and dry in very cold or wet climates. Our company is headquarter in a very wet climate, Washington state, and our bombers work really well here.

10/20/2017 1:56 PMHi Ann, What type of blanket fits in the blanket pocket? What size blanket?
Ann – Special Guest
10/20/2017 2:27 PM@Wendy Hi Wendy! I would recommend a lightweight blanket that would normally find on most airlines.
Elaine
10/20/2017 2:54 PMTraveling to Thailand where it is still warm but may need something light at night. Would you recommend the windbreaker or sweatshirt?
Ann – Special Guest
10/20/2017 3:30 PM@Elaine Hi Elaine! I would definitely recommend our windbreakers for your trip to Thailand. I would order a size larger than you normally wear so you can add a layer for extra warmth. Safe travels!

10/20/2017 3:30 PMIs the fit of the sweatshirt true to size? Is it a relaxed fit or more slim/fitted?
Ann – Special Guest
10/20/2017 3:47 PM@Renee Hi Renee! The sweatshirt is true to size if you go off the dimensions on the sizing chart.
