Very substantial rain jacket!
I love Barbour...and have many of their coats but I thought this jacket would be a thin rain shell. Instead, it has a bit of light insulation which is awesome! Other things I loved were that the SLEEVES were big enough to accommodate not just my arms (my upper arms are a little chunky and always an area of concern with fit) but other layers underneath making this a perfect transitional jacket for fall. The drawcord waist is very helpful in giving this coat a more feminine silhouette. Lately I've been having to go to size 8 in Barbour to fit my arms but this jacket was plenty roomy in the size 6 that I purchased. The two front pockets are super generous and will hold a lot of items so it would make a great coat to walk the dogs and carry essentials like phone, poop bags, treats etc. with out having to drag along your purse. The length is awesome, covering your butt and thighs which is in my opinion is essential when it's raining out! And can I give a shout out to the SNAP PLACKET? So nice to have that option to quickly close your coat and go rather than always having to fuss with a zipper. I got the green color which I would describe as a vibrant Olive but am also obsessing over maybe snagging it in Navy too.
