Ranked #444 - Men's Jackets

Not the blend. I wish I would have seen the "wool blend" described below. But my jacket has significantly more wool. The outer lining is very soft. I REALLY like the small liners inside the arms around the wrist to block the cold from coming in, GREAT feature.
It's a warm jacket, I wore it over a polo in 20F weather and was good for a few minutes. So it's not a winter jacket, but should be great for 30F and above.
The wool blend I just got is as follows:
42% Wool
37% Polyester
16% Nylon
5% Polyurethane
So, it's better, but I would have liked more wool.
