This jacket is perfect!

I honestly wasn't sure about this jacket when I ordered it because I've always worn men's clothing, but it is absolutely perfect! Like everything about it. The feel of it, the weight of it-not so heavy that it drags you down but not super light either. And it's a perfect fit... I am very pleased.

I want to be buried in this jacket

Tough, soft, flexible, warm, breathable, an OH don't get me started on the pockets. With two exterior pockets and two mega interior pockets, I can finally fulfill my dreams of being a walking toolbox. I can carry measuring tapes, shears, multiple wrenches and sockets, rolls of tape, pencils, little boxes of screws, and a whole notebook at one time. I kid you not. It's ridiculous, I know, but that's how I roll. Living on a mountain where its a 28% grade up or down a hill to the nearest tool storage, I've learned to be a little overprepared, and this jacket accommodates without judgement. I love that it snaps all the way up to the neck... great for keeping a brisk wind out. Looks polished too. I've done a lot of construction in this jacket... concrete, framing, even got messy with some fiberglass insulation and soaked it in vinegar for a day, dried it on hot, and it looks as sharp as the day it left its packaging. This is one of those staples... I can count on one hand the number of days I opted not to wear this jacket since I bought it last fall. If it's real cold and I'm heading out to work that is mostly stationary, I can comfortably wear a light fleece or sweater underneath, but it doesn't feel baggy over a wool baselayer. Tis a keeper!

So comfy it was difficult to wear to the farm

This is a great jacket to take care of all the nasty poopy dirty duties on the dairy farm. Messes don't soak in, I can just wipe off and continue my workday. Also keeps all my type 1 diabetes supplies safe in the plenty of pockets.

Warm, thoughtful details, structured look

When I wear this jacket I feel like I can take on the world. Love how durable and dense the fabric, but it also feels soft and cozy and the thermal layer is warm but really low-profile. Lots of useful details – pockets are so huge I could stuff them with stacks of paperback novels, snap buttons are a really luxe and helpful upgrade.

Sizing notes: I'm a 27 waist, 30C bust and a little over 5'3" and my size according to the chart would have been a XS, which would have fit nicely for NOT layering. But I purchased a Small on Dovetail's advice in order to layer a fleece underneath in the winter, and also to get a slightly longer sleeve, and I'm happy to have sized up. It also still looks structured and fitting at the shoulder, despite being 1/2 inch wider than the XS.
