"i bought this jacket for my husband for christmas. it is so soft, so luxurious, you can't beat it for the money. he has a long torso and long arms, but isn't tall enough for "tall men's" sizes--this jacket is plenty generous, fits him like a dream. he looks like a doll in it. i'm so glad that we found this jacket--have been looking for a stylish one for a long time. love the stand-up collar and knit ribbing. guess we love everything about it!"

"this is a nice looking jacket but there is one big problem. The band around the bottom is not tight enough. It shoud fit tight around your waist allowing the jacket to blouse above the band. It's too big and loose causing the jacket to hang straight down over your butt. Make that tighter and you have a good product. If not I wouldn't recommend this to anyone unless they like a jacket that hangs down below your waist."

"I've been a customer of Orvis for a good many years. I purchased this jacket as an identical replacement of one that is at lease 7 years old.
To my suprise I discovered they had removed the scalloped cape off the back. This was a noticeable change and not one I was expecting. That was one
of the features I really liked. I kept the jacket because I am a size different now, not that I liked it so much. There must have been a good reason to change the design. The quality remains excelent."

My son loves it, 30 December 2009

"I gave this to my teenage son for Christmas, and he absolutely loves it! (He's a classic khaki kind of kid.) It's the perfect weight for our relatively mild Texas winters - 30's to 60's on any given day.

It looks great on him, and so far the jacket has suffered teendom pretty well - elbows on restaurant tables, getting accidentally splashed with water by younger brother, etc. - and doesn't look any the worse for wear.

I bought it to be a little big so he could wear it for a few years, but if he outgrows it, I'll be back for another one just like it!"

"My husband was delighted to finally find the ltan suade bomber jacket that he has been searching for to complete his winter wardrobe. This jacket has a lovely warm lining for cooler temperatures and the syle is distinctive and casual. This is a jacket that will be worn and appreciated by my husband for many years."

Replaced 1970's Grais Jacket, 20 November 2009

"I bought this for my grandfather who wanted to replace his vintage 70's silk nap suede jacket by Grais.
This is almost identical except the Orvis version is slightly heavier in weight and does not have a full silk-like interior...only the sleeves. He really prefers the full silk interior as it keeps his shirt from getting bunched up.
Otherwise, seems like a quality made jacket. Thanks Orvis!"

"I purchased this jacket for my son-in-law and he wanted to wear it that day, which happened to be a 70 degree day. We explained to him how he would have to wait for the weather to get cooler before he could wear it. It is beautiful to look at and to the touch.
Thanks Orvis!

A grateful mother-in-law."

"I have been looking for a suede jacket of famous Baracuta style. But it could not be found at stores in Tokyo area. So I did net-surfing and reached your site where what I wanted was available. Thanks to your online shopping, I could get one. I am really satisfied with its color, shape and quality. I hope that you keep this traditional item available in the future. Thank you. "
