Uniqlo U jacket sizing: women's vs men's?

I have the hooded blouson in a unisex small, and it fits well. I want to get this women's zip up short blouson, but I'm not sure what size to go with (https://www.uniqlo.com/us/en/products/E476939-000/00?colorDisplayCode=31&sizeDisplayCode=002). I also wear a small in the unisex linen blend shirt jacket which has a body width of 22.5" while this one has a width of 23". This jacket is much more cropped though, which I like, but I don't want it to sit fully above the belt. It's hard to tell where it would be from the measurements alone (22" length for the small, 22.5" for the medium). This guy is 5'8" and wearing mid-high rise pants with the small for reference (https://www.tiktok.com/@jae.for.jason/video/7495649230992919854). I'm 5'7" but tend to wear pants lower, so I'm not sure it will hit where I'd want it to. Should I go with the medium if I don't want it to hit any higher than that, even if I'd probably prefer the sleeve length and overall proportions on the small?

Sling that will hold an iPad

I have a smaller sling, but my 11" iPad won't fit inside. I also have a basic messenger bag, but I'd prefer something a bit easier to carry that doesn't give off techbro vibes. Are there any good casual options in between that are fairly versatile? Hands-free, cross-body carry during moderately long walks is essential, so it can't be a tote or anything else that needs to be in hand. I'd also prefer to avoid anything with Indiana Jones cosplay energy. I'm okay with gorpier options if they are not bulky and overly bright, but I'd prefer to avoid anything that looks tactical or like a camera bag.

How to get lighter pants fabrics to stay cuffed?

I'm trying to cuff some outlier yes pants, and I want to be sure they won't unroll, especially when moving a lot since I wear them when walking in the morning. I don't want to worry that I'm going to step on them at any time. I've had a similar problem with linen pants in the past, but even linen is a bit crisper than the rami used on these. Ironing wouldn't be ideal, and I don't like the look of pinrolling them or doing anything else that might affect the silhouette or airflow. Are there any other tricks I could use aside from maybe folding a larger cuff?
