UPDATE: I've worn this a few times, and it's incredibly comfortable. It looks nice, too! However, I missed an important detail when I purchased it--this jacket does NOT have pockets. I'm very disappointed by that, but it's my own fault. I'll still wear it, just not as much as I would if it had a place for my essentials._______________I haven't worn this yet, but I really like how it looks in my closet. :)This material has a little stretch to it, but it's not the thin material some jeans are made of these days. It's sturdy. I'm usually an XL, but I followed their size chart and bought a 3x, which fits very well. I had to roll up the sleeves, but I'm only 5' tall--your mileage may vary.I expect to be able to wear this for a very long time, once the weather cooperates.
