The Otto Denim Jacket

No idea why this jacket has so may good reviews. Maybe if you are short and super slim, but I’m 5”6 and standard large in most things and 1) the sleeves are short (don’t even reach my wrists), 2) the way the shoulders are dropped make me look 20lbs heavier and 3) it’s no long, but short and awkwardly cut. All in all this is going to be an immediate return.

This is everything you want in a denim jacket - slightly oversized, classically faded, soft as if you’ve been wearing it for years. I’m 5’2” and petite, the XS is oversized but doesn’t drown me. Looks so cute with a dress underneath. I know I will have this jacket for years.

I saw the first two reviews and agree with both. One woman who is 5 ft. 6 in. said the jacket does not look good on her. She said the arms were too short and the jacket was too short. She did say the jacket may fit well on a petite woman. Then the next reviewer said she is 5 feet 2 inches and this jacket fits her perfectly. I am also 5 ft. 2 in. and slim. So this jacket also fits me perfectly. I bought it in a size small. The material is super soft, the arms are not too long, and the length is perfect. It hits at the waste, so it does not looked cropped. But it is not too long. It makes me look taller. It is a little bit oversized, but not sloppy. I like that it is oversized because I can wear long sleeved tees under it. It is still new so I have only worn it once. But I have already already gotten compliments that the jacket looks great. Thank you Nordstrom for keeping us shorter ladies in mind.

What I was looking for. Although I wanted something longer in length this can still work for its purpose. I order the S sized. I am 5’5 tall and weight 150 lbs. The material is unexpectedly SOFT!! And feels very comfortable to wear. So far I am happy with the purchase.

Absolutely love this jacket! The denim heads the soft feeling of being washed over time. Great length that falls at mid hip. A bit oversized in the shoulders, but didn’t feel frumpy. Color is the perfect wash for spring and summer.

The quality of this denim jacket was great. I only am returning because though I wanted a slouchy fit jean jacket, this one isn't flattering on me. The batwing like sleeves for my arms are too large and the length of the jacket on my body isn't long enough. Also, for me, I didn't like the high shine silver AND glossy black buttons.

I wanted to love this jacket. It was comfortable and stylish; however, it was way too wide throughout the bust and shoulder area. I felt like a football player when trying it on. Maybe I need a smaller size? I am typically an XL and ordered an XL.

I really love the material—it’s high quality and feels great. However, the fit didn’t work for me. It was too large in the shoulders and arms, but too tight around the waist when buttoning the bottom. The proportions felt off—top-heavy without a consistent oversized fit through the waist. Unfortunately, I had to return it.

Nothing negative about this jean jacket in my opinion. It is soft to the touch and the color you see on the website is exactly the color in person. I love my new jean jacket by this brand. I tried Ag trucker jacket which is the same style but that one was longer. I prefer this FD denim jacket.

The last 2 things you want in a denim coat are for it to be super stiff or frumpy. This jacket is neither. It is soft, but so well made with quality materials… It is means to be a little oversized, but it is far from sloppy. I am 5’9 and around 140lbs with strong shoulders and arm, and this jacket fits perfectly…it hits me just at my hip and does not have a cropped look whatsoever. Great purchase.

Love this jacket! Looks great, feels wonderful and has pockets in all the right places!
