Men's Dorrington Jacket

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

I'm reviewing this jacket for my husband. I gave it to him for Christmas (he had admired it in the catalog). He really likes it and uses it as a casual/work coat. It is definitely heavier than the new tech jackets but this is exactly the kind of rugged jacket he needed to fill a gap. The color is a bit darker than the 'wheat' pictured in the catalog but neither of us thought that was an issue. It's still a nice color. He did read a review about fleece lined hand warmer pockets. His pockets are not fleece lined. That must have been an older model but you should probably bring it back.

Length of jacket seems a big short, beware if you are long torsoed.

Great all-around jacket. Rugged yet handsome. Fabric is surprisingly wind-resistant, comfy at 20-30 degrees. Fleece-lined pockets are cozy. The stand-up collar keeps my neck warm. Fits perfectly (size Large, I'm a 44 reg). Girlfriend says it looks great on me! I'd be nit-picking to find a con, but the zipper pull on the inside pocket is kinda small and hard to locate sometimes. But it does have a hole through which I can tie a leather thong or something. Really not a big deal. Bought my first Woolrich jacket in high school (1967!) and loved it. This jacket has that same comfort and durability, and kinda takes me back.

This is a great winter jacket! It works great for dry cool/cold weather, with jeans or khakis. I prefer a shirt and sweater with it, but weather needs to be cold as the jacket is pretty warm. It has a great inner pocket for gloves and another for smaller items with a zipper. Outer pockets are lined, so are warm and block wind to keep hands comfortable. I have has this jacket in light rain and the moisture did bead up, so there must be a coating of some type. The zipper goes all the way up, so the collar can be closed around the neck. I love this jacket!

Husband likes this jacket--says it is warm (that was the first need) and is very comfortable even while driving. He is very satisfied.

I bought this so my husband could replace a similar jacket, also a Woolrich. He loved it. It felt as comfortable as his old one, which was more than well worn, it was getting threadbare.

I'm 37, about 5'10", around 180 with an athletic build. The length of the arms and body are perfect, but it is a bit bulky in the chest area (I'm a 40R). It feels a bit tapered though, which helps reduce the bulk of the upper portion a bit. I've yet to test it against real cold weather (from Upstate NY, live in NYC) but it is heavier than it looks. And the color WILL be darker than expected (ordered the khaki, mine's more of an olive color). All in all I think you'll get what you pay for. Better than a lot of other jackets I've tried on.

I was looking for a cotton winter jacket like we wore when we were children up here in the North--something heavy and cozy that looked good with jeans or snow pants. I feel happy (and 7 yrs. old) every time I put it on. I like the two-way zipper a lot, too--it makes things easier now that my mom's not around to dress me.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

The coat is great as all the other reviews mention. The only downside (if you didn't read other people's reviews) is that the coat is darker than shown online. I knew this going into the purchase so the coat was exactly what I expected.

I wear the coat to work everyday and out on the weekends and the color goes with mostly everything I wear.

It's a very warm coat and does well protecting me from the wind in Chicago. The pockets are warm as can be and there's a massive interior pocket that's great to throw anything in while on the move.

If you're you're on the fence with those coat, PULL THE TRIGGER!

Bought this for my husband to wear for working outside in the winter. Great looking & fitting jacket. BUT, it was not warm enough, even with a hoodie, to spend much time outside if it's very cold (below 40). I'm only returning it because he has plenty of Fall jackets. Would highly recommend, though, to someone who isn't planning on spending a lot of time in colder temps.

I would buy another if there was another color that I liked,

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Really nice jacket, very happy with it. Not really an "online buyer" but pretty happy with the fit color and style.

Every day usage

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Bought this jacket a couple years ago and it quickly became my favorite. Lots of complements. Was very disappointed recently when the zipper broke. Woolrich replaced it quickly with no problem. The original had more of a faded color to it while the new one has a darker, newer appearance. I liked the original better but my wife likes the new one better. I have long arms and the sleeves are plenty long (large).

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Better colour than i expected, after reading some reveiws. I can't wait for winter to come along so i can wear it as i live in sydney, Australia. Perfect fit, delivered in 8 days. Couldn't be happier.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Seems well constructed with quality materials. Well put together. Seems strong. Like the secret inner pocket with the zipper. Clever idea.

Very pleased overall. Also, good value.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

My size (large) is OK but I think the sleeve could be just a little bit longer. I like the material quality, the color (some kind of dark brown) that is very neutral and can be worn with almost any color pants. Very well made. Good for cold but not too cold weather.
I really like the fact that the zipper can be pull both ways, from bottom up (very useful when driving) and the usual top to bottom.
I recommend this jacket. It is worth the money.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Fit was very tight at waist - everything else fit properly, but could not get bottom closed on a medium(I have a 34" waist). Really a shame, as I otherwise loved the coat.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

I liked the feel of this jacket as soon as I put it on. It's a perfect for spring and fall.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Could be just as warm and weigh half as much

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

great jacket!

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

warm good wind break

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Bought the medium and had to return it for a large found it to be smaller than most mediums and that is what i normally wear. We will see if the large is ok or if i have to send it back. The zipper problem people mention is easy to take care of you just hold both of them at the same time while zipping, don't think they needed two zippers though as it does not add anything to the jacket.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Really like product

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

The early fall has been unusually warm and there has been little chance to wear it.But overall it lives up to advertising. My biggest problem was that it took me two years to get one. Twice before I was ready to order and you either did not have my color (saddle) or size (large). Please, folks, do something about marketing.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

Ordered for my college-aged son. It's a little heavier than we anticipated, but he likes it enough to still keep it. May actually use as a winter jacket rather than fall.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

This is warm in the wind, ideal for recess duty. Not too warm and great with a sweater underneath. Zipper is a little stiff but it should ease up with time. Love the inside pocket. Material is rugged, don't have to worry about wrecking it.

Comments about Men's Dorrington Jacket:

This will be my go to jacket in cold weather. The jacket looks great and appears to be constructed with high quality. Should last for a long time.
