| At first I was a bit scared while purchasing this item as the description wasn't the greatest. I'm not the biggest wool fan because it itches me like there's no tomorrow. Somewhere on this site it says in small printing that it's fleece lined, but I wasn't sure if it was only in the pockets or all over. In all actuality, it's fleece lined everywhere, so the fact that it's wool doesn't bother me in the slightest. It's warm, fuzzy, and my new favourite hoodie for chillin' after a day of shredding.
It's also nicely fitted in the back so you don't look like a whale or like you swiped your bro's stuff.
Love it, love it, love it!!! |

| Never have I had a jacket fit so awesome. I'm tall, with the whole long arm, long torso thing going on. This jacket fits soooooo good, no more ass crack when bending over. Love the warmth, and it gets darn cold here in Jackson Hole. Kudos! |

| Not What I Thought it Was 01-21-09 |

| This is not the $140 on sale for $80 wool jacket I wanted. And I sooo wanted one! This is more like a sweater weight coat- maybe even a light sweater. This is not like the thick ibex jackets that you can actually wear on a chilly shoulder season day. I would buy this jacket for a sale price of 40 bucks, but it's not worth the 80 I found it for on SAC, and definitely not the 140 BC.com is trying to sell it for.
It has a raw seam on the hood which I didn't realize, which is cute but dresses it down. The fit is cool, and I like the length in back, but the zipper bulges out if I don't sit up straight.
If you're willing to shell out the change for an off-brand but stylish quasi-wool jacket (it's woven wool threads glued to a thin poly interior that's not even fluffy; I wanted thick boiled wool), be my guest.
This jacket was not what I thought I was paying for. |

| this jacket does not have a 100% wool outer layer as the description says. its primary content is cotton, wool is 4th after cotton poly and nylon. jacket looks cool, but cotton is lame for outodoor use. if you are looking for a cotton hoody this may be for you |

| Review Title 08-15-09 |

| I really love this jacket as a non-technical coat to wear around town in the winter. It's plenty warm for most of what southcentral Alaska dishes out and is super comfy and cozy. I love the fleece lining and, as others mention, it's not itchy at all! It's a little too bulky to use skiing, backpacking, etc. and I think there are better materials for warmth (i.e. primaloft) when weight and space are an issue. The cut is fitted and feminine and I usually get compliments when I wear it . . . nice to feel both cozy and stylish! |

| My Mom loves it and she hates coats. She states is super warm and that she "just LOVES IT" so do I need to say anything else. |

| It's a flattering fit. It's soft on the inside. It's good quality. It's plenty long enough including in the sleeves. The hood fits all the way over my head. I don't have any complaints. I absolutely love it. It's plenty warm enough to use with under layers or as a layer under a heavier coat. I like that it's fairly thin but still lined. I might order another one in a different color. |

| I love this jacket. Warm and cozy and soft on the inside although wool on outside. I like that it is form fitting which is much more flattering. Runs fairly true to size though if you consider the fact it is fitted. I wear this jacket everyday (May), although it is Wisconsin. |

| From the description I thought this would be a warmer jacket, but I do like it a lot. I wear it when I bike 5 blocks to work and it's comfortable above 45 degrees. Nice and cozy for just being out and about. |

| I was skeptical, but went for it. This is not a winter jacket. It's way lighter than an Ibex, but perfect for sitting at the campfire on a cold night or bumming around town on a cool spring day when its warm in the sun and very cool in the shade (I live at elevation). I find that when my house is cool at night I wear it to bed. Its not scratchy like you would imagine a wool jacket to be because it's only 42% wool. I was first disappointed to read that on the tag, but have fallen in love with and wear the jacket so much that I'm afraid it's starting to get stinky. Stay tuned for washing instructions. I just asked BC for them. |

| I got this jacket for my girlfriend and she wears it all the time. It is a great fall and spring jacket, and has a great fit for females. I think that it probably runs a little big, as I got her a S and it fits well even though she is about 5'6". I got her the 'berry' color and she loves it. I wouldn't recommend it for wet conditions, as I wouldn't think the wool would hold up very well to a lot of moisture. |

| I really like this hoodie, it fits really well and looks good. What I don't like about this jacket is how expensive it was for not being that warm. I read reviews saying it's warm but I need to wear another hoodie under it to keep from feeling the cold and wind. I'm keeping it but wouldn't recommend it for cold winter months really. It's more of a fall/spring jacket in my opinion. |

| I had been looking for something like this for a while and got lucky on Steep&Cheap. I'm about 5'2", small build and I got the XS in the brown-- fits great and looks nice!
I wear this jacket all the time: as my primary jacket on 45-60 degree days, skiing as a midlayer, to class, and to bed (in my apartment and no, I'm not passing out drunk). As someone already mentioned, the inside is lined with a kind of quilted fleece material so the wool doesn't touch your skin.
The zipper on this jacket has to potential to be zipped up all the way to under your nose, thus creating a kind of hot-female-Kenny-from-South-Park look when the hood is up. It's a nice feature if it's freezing out, but not a hindrance or problem at all during other the rest of the time.
The only negative that I would say about this jacket is, as with most wool, it's handwash only. I'm too scared to see if it would actually be okay in the washing machine, but its really sturdy so it might. |

| I got this jacket because my boyfriend has the men's version and LOVES it. I originally ordered the moss but when it arrived it was a weird yellow pea soup color. I liked the fit so I returned it for the cocoa color. |
