"I should've listened to the reviews. It looks nothing like the picture, nowhere near as stylish. I returned it the same day I got it. It fits weird. It just sucks overall. From reading the reviews, it seems like this is a hit or miss, but honestly, don't even take the chance."

just bad
(April 28, 2013)
"I was really excited to get this. At first I was skeptical after reading some of the negative reviews, but I bought it anyways. I ordered a small. The torso fit fine, but the sleeves are SUPER baggy. Also, there were staples in mine and white paint splatter marks. Did this happen to anyone else? And when I got it, it was already missing some buttons. I'm super disappointed. Definitely going back."

The fitting varies depending on the body type
(April 17, 2013)
"Be careful when buying this product online! It would be better if you went to visit an actual UO store and have this jacket fitted physically!
I bought mine online and had it in a size S because I'm petite and afraid that if I order a larger size, the sleeves might run big & too loose. The length I was expecting wasn't the same as on these models. I have the same problem with the review of Brazinda. My height is only 5'2 yet the length of this jacket runs short. What is up with that? Also the sleeves have this weird loose fit on me even if I have it in a size S. So whenever I wear it, I always have to fold the sleeves to look better. Anyway, I can't have it exchanged or returned because I live in another country. Oh well!"

"I was so insanely excited to order this jacket and had my eye on it for months and finally caved. Haven't been so disappointed in an item in such a long time!!! The bottom of the jacket didnt hit me long like it does on the model and I'm only 5'3 with a short torso so thats odd. Also the arms where huge in width and it was just ill fitting all around. Consider it returned."

Not sure..
(February 15, 2013)
"So I received this jacket in the mail today and as soon as I opened it I wore it out. As I was out I realized that the jacket didn't have the velcro fabric near the button strip like the model in the picture. Also, the buttons were falling off and the buttons were not all the same. So I just happened to be near an UO and I went in and told them my issue. They let me order another jacket from the store. I am going to wait to return the damaged one to see if the new one I ordered is any better. Aside from the issues I had with this coat, it is really cute."

It's okay but...

"I have no idea if it's just my jacket but it doesn't have the front pockets. The ones where the model has her hand inside. The jacket over all is great. Very baggy but I like it. 3 stars because my jacket doesn't look like the one displayed on the images."

"I really wanted this to work out. I read the reviews saying it was huge, but I ordered it anyways. I am 5'2" size 2 and the Small was comically oversized. My husband, who wears an XL in tshirts, could fit into this thing (a little small on him, but still). If it hadn't been so big I would have kept it. So, if you're looking for an oversized mid-weight jacket and you aren't petite, this may be the jacket for you. It is a surplus military jacket, so it's unisex."

BIGGEST mistake.
(January 15, 2013)
"I'm 5'1" and 114 llbs, & ordered a small. Obviously the jacket is meant to be oversized but this was ridiculously HUGE. I looked like I was wearing a medium in men's or something. the material is OK though, good for fall in the bay area of cali at least. but yea unless you really like to look like you're wearing men's clothes in a not-so-cute way, then this jackets totally for you."

Mistake or magnificent?
(January 12, 2013)
"I ordered this jacket in green not too long ago, and when it came in the mail I was so happy, then i opened the package only to be disappointed. Every review I read said its huge. Normally i wear a large because I like a bigger fit, (I'm 5"6.5, 36C bust, 157 lbs) but I got a medium because of the reviews. That was most likely my mistake because when I tried it on, it was not long at all it barely reached the top of butt, the sleeves barely reached my wrists, the sleeves were very bulky and made my shoulders look manly. And there was an awkward flap on only one side inside the jacket. I returned it, and now am ordering a new jacket, debating whet here to buy this one again because I have a friend who has it and rocks it, or if I should just get a new one. I want one of this style though.
Overall, not a good experience with me. Oh and also the color is a lot darker green in person but I like it that way anyway."

Ehh...
(December 30, 2012)
"This jacket is really cute and it will also keep you warm! But this was definitely too big for me, even though I got a S. Length wise is okay, because I don't mind it being long but it was just way too baggy. For reference, I'm 5'2'' and weigh 115. I did return but if they ever made them in XS, I would buy it again in a heartbeat."

Unflattering
(November 9, 2012)
"I had debated buying this jacket online for a long time, and out of chance found that my local store had one returned in the exact size and color I was looking for. The cashier asked me if it was really what I wanted, seeing as the person who returned it did not like the stains and awkward seams as if there were patches ripped off of it. I decided to buy it anyways after trying it on, but could not get past the musty smell and how large the small looked on me. I am 5'3 and 130 lbs for reference. due to the fact the arms were too wide, the jacket in general was too long (past my butt, making it look like I was a lot wider than I really am) and I couldn't see paying as much as I did for it, I decided to return it. I understand that they all are unique being urban renewal, but the one I got just wasn't for me. I would recommend trying this on first if you get the chance, Overall, I really liked the jacket and the idea, it just fit too awkward for me to keep."

Too big
(October 30, 2012)
"I really wanted to like this jacket but it was way too big. I'm 5'8 and 120 lbs and got a small. The arms are so loose and ridiculously baggy. The picture is deceiving because they obviously altered it to look like it fits better. Have to return it now :/"

"The quality is great, it's a beautiful jacket and everything but I ordered a small and the one I got is huge on me and I'm 5'4". It's not big in a cute way either. They might've sent the wrong size, not sure."

One of the cutiest pieces I've purchased for fall!
(October 19, 2012)
"I love this jacket!! It is one of the cutest pieces I've purchased for fall. I am 5'6" 117lbs and ordered the khaki/medium. It fits really well if you're looking for a slouchy fit, but the waist is adjustable if you want a more tailored look. The jacket is a little more on the olive green side than khaki, but I really like the olive. Also, one of the buttons going down the front was broken in half, and another button was sewn on with brown thread, but those were quick fixes. It definitely looks and smells vintage, but vintage is what I was shopping for. In my opinion, it's a keeper!!!"
