By Wild Zoo Lady from Salt Lake City, UT on 04/29/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Durable, Good Cut, Lightweight, Versatile, Warm Best Uses: Bad Weather, Daily Use, Travel Describe Yourself: Classic Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Because this jacket was pricey (for STP), I promised myself I'd only keep it if it was perfect. I kept it. It's light, warm, pretty and practical. The recoil pads give the shoulders a little more shape so I leave them in, but might take them out for packing. The pad holders can also function as secret pockets.
Classic Mixed with Contemporary By Boutique from Mass. on 01/29/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Good Cut, Lightweight, Versatile, Well Made Best Uses: Daily Use, Travel Describe Yourself: Trendy/Stylish Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Compared to the utility jacket, I prefer this one, due to its length. I like the adjustable waist and the bellow pockets, a feature from men's jackets that I think should be available in all women's jackets (rather than the flat patch pockets in most women's jackets). I like having the snap option at the bottom as well, which makes room for fuller hips while keeping the waist. I would like zips at the sleeves instead of knit cuffs and perhaps a zip all the way up to the top, but overall a good piece. Now two times my cost.
Better than a fleece or sweater By No nickname from Boston, MA on 01/02/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Gusseted pockets, Lightweight, Side snaps for custom fit, Well Made Cons: No side entry for pockets Best Uses: Daily Use, Indoors for added warmth Describe Yourself: Casual Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: soft fabric so lightweight it doesn't feel like you have a coat on
Like being wrapped in silk By Barbour Lover from Texas on 11/21/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Durable, Good Cut, Lightweight, Versatile Describe Yourself: Classic Dresser Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I exchanged the UK12(US8) for UK10(US6) because the UK12 was too full between the bottom of the bust and the abdomen. It looked a little weird, so STP [...] sent out the UK10. It fits great. Perfect to layer under other Barbour jackets/coats I own. Fabric is luxuriously soft and silky. This is a nice layering piece or wear it alone over a sweater. Exceptional Barbour quality, as usual. Zipper front and snaps, knit sleeve cuffs, deep pockets, snaps on the riding vents, and nice little stand-up collar. Great for our typically mild Texas fall/winter. [...]
By No name from NJ on 06/11/2008 Pros: Durable, Lightweight, Soft and comfortable Best Uses: Bad Weather, Daily Use Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Good jacket to walk a dog in and run to a store...
By Lynn from Seattle on 03/02/2008 Pros: Good Cut, Lightweight Cons: Does Not Fit My Body Type Describe Yourself: Casual, Classic, Eclectic, Trendy Sizing: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: This coat did not seem to look very nice on me. The details of the coat were very well done and quite beautiful, but the fit did not seem to work for my body type. I have fairly broad shoulders and the shoulders on the coat seemed to be designed for someone with much more narrow shoulders. I also found that the coat looked shapeless on me. I could see where it would look very nice on someone else, though.

I wear it almost every day and love it.
