Independent Springer Chore Coat Jacket - grey
Got this in just recently and have a couple of days wearing it. It's clean in it's design and fits well. I'm 6'0 and 170lbs and I got the large. It's slightly big (sleeve length and torso) but not overly bulky or bell shaped. I love the fit, especially if I'm layering with a Dickies quilted jacket or vest and the sleeve length remains even after a cold wash. I think it could shrink in warm or hot if needed to acquire a more tailored fit. Like titled, it's more of a jacket or an exterior shell than a "coat". Most chore coats are thicker in my experience and this one has a lining but not flannel or sherpa. I def like it and I ordered a second if that says anything. I'll be using it as an exterior layer over base layers and to protect rain gear when working or when in brush country.
