Levi'sMen's Washed Cotton Hooded Military Jacket

I got this to make my own waxed jacket for colder weather that will repel water well. The commercial ones range from $150 for very light weight ones to $400+ for heavier duty ones. I like the Levi brand and have had good luck with their construction quality in pants before, and their design looks great to me with the Sherpa lining and detachable hood.I’m 6’1” 275 lbs with longer arms & torso that usual for my height. Fit is an issue for me with sleeves coming up short unless I oversized and drown in coats or jackets. The xxl tall option online fits perfectly for an overcoat in high 20’s to low 40’s weather with normal layers underneath. It is too warm for me in the high 40’s or above.The zipper quality feels good for the jacket and the removeable hood inserts. The hood insert is the same gauge zipper as the jacket, but the attachment zipper side is different. You won’t be able to zip on some other shell lining or fleece into that as I thought I could from stock photos.I applied wax and melted it in with a heat gun. Anything but pure cotton canvas could melt or burn from that, so I was worried about the polyester lining. It all came out very well in my opinion, and the canvas held up to the rough and strenuous waxing process on all the seams. None of the liner got stuck to the shell, and nothing melted.The buttons on the wrist adjustment and pockets don’t have much holding power, so it’s easy to unbutton your wrist cuff against things. That’s better than it getting hung up on things and ripping though I guess.The had warmer pockets so have a good lining, but I’m indifferent to the pho button pocket detailing. It doesn’t hurt anything, but I could do without it. The hand pockets are pretty deep for gloves, keys, or a phone. Be careful with phones in those pockets while sitting especially like in a car slightly tilted backwards. My phone falls out there easily but never while I’m walking around. The breast pockets are good for that with a reasonable sized phone & case though.I really like the brown color both when new and after taking some darker colors from the wax. I’ve already bought another Levi model trucker style jacket in the black color too.I would recommend and have already bought a few of these to wax as Christmas presents for my dad and older brother.

Husband loves this jacket and has it in multiple colors. Plenty of pockets, a button pocket inside, nice hood, keeps him warm in the New England winters when we are shoveling. It is true to size and lasted him about 5 years before he had to replace one

Great jacket but it and the sleeves are long. Had to get an XS due to length but it is a little tight because of that. Good quality, especially for the price when on sale. Also pretty warm but not too heavy.

I don't usually buy my clothes online. Always have hard time picking the look and size. I picked this jacket however on a whim and I couldn't be happier! Hands down, this is my most favorite jacket I ever bought. It simply makes you feel so cool, has that super casual look but still fashionable and classy. Looks great, works great, keeps me warm and fits so well! Highly recommend it!

I really like this jacket. It feels very durable and keeps my partner warm. No issues with the stitching or lining. I ordered on Dec 11 and received it on Dec 29. I was notified of a delay in shipping and then was messaged asking if I still wanted the jacket (never seen that before) which I did so accepted the delay. Not a huge issue but was weird and frustrating. I understand it was ordered right before Christmas but I had never received a message like that. Overall I love the jacket but had an interesting shipping process.

Husband loved this jacket and wore it until it was past its prime. So for Christmas he wanted to get a new jacket and was worried he wouldn’t find one he liked as well. So I bought him this new version which is just as great! The quality, color, comfort and sizing are all the same (maybe even a little better?!) and he couldn’t be happier!

Great look, fits well, very comfortable

Great jacket that will keep you warm in the winter! The sleeves are just a bit too short, but that is not unusual for me. The jacket has some weight to it and keeps me warm during Illinois' winter. I always zip up the outer jacket, so I don't need the second zipper on the hooded part. However, it looks great and keeps me warm!
