Backcountry.com Wool Hooded Jacket - Women's

I'm really picky about gear. It's got to be functional, durable and look good. This jacket rocks. I've been out hiking in the rain and it keeps me dry for at least an hour in a down pour (you may get damp but are still super warm). It's warm for its weight with being long in the arms and back. Quite camo and quiet for stalking in the woods, and doesn't catch on branches. I'm 5'6", 130lbs and a medium is a good size. Big enough to layer up under without being baggy. My only dislikes about the coat are that the hood doesn't cinch up so it comes off when running or in wind and the cotton/wool outer layer is pilling in the high-wear areas like the arms. Other than those little things it's a great jacket!!!

I have worn this jacket as much as possible since I got it in the mail. It has a feminine fit with a complimenting cut. I got the green one and found it very true to size. I always receive compliments whenever I wear it. I would recommend this jacket to anyone, any age.

Got mine yesterday, WOW! Very nice. The lining is actually a very fine fleece (so soft). It is a feminine form-fitting coat. I ordered a medium (I'm always between sizes) and it fits but with no layers underneath. I would order a size up if you plan on wearing sweaters, etc. The hood makes it more of a casual jacket but for someone like me who lives in jeans - it's my "dress" coat.

This jacket has a really flattering fit, I thought it was sized and shaped really well. It's really warm and comfortable. The only drawback is the pilling. The exterior gets little wool balls on it, making it look really shaggy and cheap. They're easy to remove but annoying to have to maintain.

I just rec'd this jacket. It fits really well on top, nice long sleeves, but snug in the hips. I ordered a S which I usually wear. 5'6" and 135lbs. The wool content is only 25% and the lining is a neoprene. I'm not sure if I'm keeping it.

I just got this jacket, and I totally love it. I was deciding between The North Face Denali jacket, and this one, I'm glad I got this one! I was trying to decide between a small and medium, and went with the medium. I usually wear either or, but the medium is a little big. It's not bad if you're going to layer something thick underneath. If I were to do it over again, I'd go with a small - maybe in another color! I am 5'7" and 135 lbs - in case that helps anyone else choose their size.

I can't say enough good stuff about this jacket. The quality is excellent, the fit is excellent, and it looks great on. It runs small. I wear a medium, but really could wear a large in this jacket. The medium is tight. It's really my best purchase this year - I just love it - It's become my favorite thing! I have the cocoa jacket, and the color is superb. There was a lot of detail put into the construction of this jacket, and its quality and style. You will find it remarkable.

I really liked this jacket. It kept me pretty warm around 30 degree weather walking 5 mins downtown to work. The outside is wool, inside is a really soft fleece. I like the look, I even think the little goat logo is cute. I really wanted to purchase the denali womans jacket from North Face, but I just couldn't settle on the colors..(everyone has a black one). This is a really great alternative, and it also cost less then the denali jacket if budget seems to be your issue.

I was a bit unsure about this jacket. The pitfalls of internet shopping is buying it sight unseen, and I've had my share of misses. But this was a hit! I only got it yesterday so I can't say how it will stand to the elements other than the short walk I took with my dog last night. It may be more of a late spring/early fall jacket, it'll probably be a bit cold for winter conditions. I'm 5'4", 112lbs, so the xs fits, but I wont' be able to wear a bulky sweater underneath. But that's okay, because I'm slowly switching my wardrobe to merino wool and you don't need to bulk up. The fit is figure-flattering, but find that it's cut rather generously in the chest. Which is okay, it kind of gives me the illusion of having a bigger bust! ;-) The fleece inside is soft, but because it's black, it's already collected a bit of white fur from my cat. The wool content is 25%, though, if that makes a difference to anyone. Overall, it's a really cute kick-about jacket around town.

I am so glad I bought this jacket - I've barely taken it off since I bought it! The sizing is perfect - definitely not on the small size - looks good whether you have a t-shirt or sweater on and I have to agree with the no-itch part - having polar fleece under the wool makes it comfy now matter if the layer underneath is a T-shirt or not. Blocks the wind great too! If the performance wasn't enough - the look is killer - sporting the goat tastefully without looking like a billboard advertisement the way some of the hoodies are out there!

OK - so most jackets are boxy and make you look like you have a sweater or two under them. This is a really flattering jacket, especially if you have curves. It is tapered nicely at the waist. I usually wear a small to x-small and in this jacket the extra small fit quite nicely. This works well as a sweater as well as a jacket. And I am really, really sensitive to itchy wool and this is a NO ITCH jacket, thanks to the comfy lining.

This jacket is very well made and provides great warmth. It has held up valiantly to a considerable amount of abuse and thanks to its wool composition, doesn't smell manky after continual use. I have long arms (3 inch ape index), and the sleeves are more than sufficient in length. My only complaints are that the zipper cover near the neck is not very well engineered (it's made of too flexible fabric and folds over so that it doesn't cover the zipper), and the zipper scratches my skin. I have to manually put the zipper cover back into place so that my skin doesn't get irritated. The hood is quite large and because it doesn't have a pull string, it isn't very useful in windy conditions- since I can't keep the hood up. Overall, an excellent coat requiring only a few minor tweaks.

The quality of this jacket is top notch - I love color, the wool, and the embroidered logo. It is also stitched very well and the inside fabric is extremely warm and cozy. The sleeves are too long for me in a Medium and I am 5'4". Also, the edges of the hood are up close to my ears when it is unzipped - I think this is by design so this may be perfect for most people but it feels a bit claustrophobic to me. Having said that, this jacket is perfect for wearing in brisk, cold weather and allows you to rock the Goat in perfect style. It looks fantastic!

Thr backcountry.com wool jacket is the best jacket I have ever owned. Almost wind proof, high cuff so you are protected from wind while riding around on your "towny", great fit. All pockets have zippers and there are not too many of them. I am 5'3 and around 110 lbs and size xs fits perfectly. Backcountry.com best woll jacket on the market!

I purchased this hoody a few weeks ago and I have to stop myself from wearing it to work more than twice a week. Very soft, very comfy and warm. I live in cold weather (20 - 30 degrees) and it's perfect for work attire with a cute tee underneath. I'm between a medium and small; I'm 5' 7" (The North Face/Patagonia small, but Mountain Hardwear / Marmot / Arc'teryx medium). In this item, the small fits really well.

This is a fantastic jacket. I plan to get a few more for gifts. It's warm and fits extremely well. It's not scratchy. Cozy, great lining. I really love how its tailored and not bulky. The quality is great and it looks quite smart for a casual jacket. I'm usually an XS, sometimes a S. The XS fit perfectly. I'd say it runs a tad bit on the large side.
