Really like the fit and feel of this jacket

As I readjust to the colder climate of the U.S. Northeast, I’m amazed at how affordable quality clothing has become just by following Amazon’s recommendations. This ~$50 jacket has been my favorite recent purchase, worn almost exclusively as my outer layer from November 2024 to February 2025. Just add an appropriate fleece, and it performs well in temperatures ranging from cold, rainy 60s to snowy 10s, even with winds in the high 20 mph range. Twenty years ago, I would have expected a jacket like this to cost $200, adjusted for inflation. Apparel manufacturing has clearly improved, and we’re the beneficiaries. I’d gladly buy this jacket again if I lost it, and given that it shows zero wear despite a harsh NYC winter, I expect it to last for years.

Gave away my business casual lightly insulated jacket to some homeless kid when I was on a walk downtown with my wife last year - and felt good about myself until I realized how hard it was to replace that jacket :)! So this year as fall hit, I was looking for a ~200$ HH or Kuhl lightly insulated jacket but I had no luck finding anything I liked in an LT size. After hours of comparison shopping I found this one on Amazon. It was priced lower than I preferred as I wanted a business casual coat that I would feel good wearing at the office and I wanted something that looked expensive. I have never heard of Weatherproof but they trumpet their 'since 1949'. Strangely for a company so proud of the brand they didn't have a single logo anywhere visible on the outside of the coat, just the tags inside the coat. OK - whatever. The coat itself fits absolutely perfectly and looks great. The first order was hilarious as I am an LT and Amazon sent me a 4XLT so when I put it on I looked like I was in a tent. Amazon issue not the coats - and amazon processed the return and had me a replacement in 3 days so it was all good. So I am 6'4' 230 with broad shoulders, long arms. 36' waist. This LT size is form fit for those dimensions. I typically have trouble with too short arms and too short a waist and occasionally too big a waist on the coat. This coat had none of these issues and just fits. All zippers work and the seams are well sown. Velcro sleeves aren't too bulky. I like the material for the outside and it just feels sturdy. The insulation was much better than expected and I wore it in 35F weather this week and while I won't say I was toasty I was OK. I would want to "layer up" colder than 35F for sure. The wife says it looks slimming and I feel good wearing it. So I feel like I met my goals of expensive look and feel, perfect fit, (bonus - decent insulation without bulk). I did not get any of the brand names I was after but I paid less than 1/2 my budget so I'll get over it. Highly recommended - I would get another in a heartbeat.

My husband needed a jacket that wasn’t too heavy, but would keep him warm. He travels for a living and needed something that would fit in his bag. It doesn’t fold down as small as he would like, but it has been worth the little bit of extra space it takes. Initially got 3xl, but was worried about the length when he moved around. Sent back and got the 3xl long. It is great. True to size.

I’m sad to say it didn’t quite fit. I’m 6-9 and it’s just barely too short on the body and arms. I’m sad because I love its thickness, and it’s comfortable overall. I really wish it was a little longer so I could keep it, but it just doesn’t work for me. If you’re a little shorter pl ade get it, great jacket
