First impression? This jacket feels like a steal for the price. The polyester material is sturdy yet surprisingly lightweight, and the quilted lining adds just enough warmth without making me look puffy.

I’ve worn it in 40°F weather with just a t-shirt underneath, and it held up perfectly. The rib-knit cuffs and waistband seal out drafts, and the bronze zipper gives it a classic military vibe.

The pockets are a game-changer—two front slant pockets for quick access, a sneaky sleeve pocket (great for transit cards), and a deep inner pocket that fit my phone securely during windy walks.

Washed it twice now—no shrinkage or fading. Runs true to size (I’m 6’1”, 180lbs, Large fits like a glove). Only gripe? Sleeves could be half-inch longer for my ape arms, but that’s nitpicking.

Paired it with jeans for errands and even dressed it up with chinos for casual Fridays. Rain beads right off—tested during an unexpected downpour. For under $50? Absolute wardrobe MVP.
