“Overall very impressed with the quality and design of the ladies padded wax jacket but a couple of niggles. Poppers quite difficult to press – maybe they ease up with use – and sleeve length about 2” too long which I have had to take up. Am I the only woman with shorter arms?! Surprised to find that sizes 10, 12 and 14 of this jacket all have a 20” sleeve length.
Having initially ordered a size 14, I did an exchange for a 12 which was definitely a better fit (apart from the sleeves) whilst still allowing plenty of leeway around chest and arms.
The attention to detail and service from New Forest is first class and it’s such a pleasure to find a British company with common sense and integrity.
No problems at all using their efficient returns and prompt refund system.
Thank you New Forest – would definitely recommend.”
“Very pleased with my jacket what a bargain. Well made, warm but lightweight. I ordered the size up from my usual based on reviews and it was perfect. Ordered one for my husband too however will need to exchange as it was a bit snug. They're definitely on the small side.”
“Olive waxed jacket of good quality, fit and colour. You can feel the waxy finish on your fingers. Size 10 was a good fit no room for an extra layer. The padding is not thick. Easy ordering & quick delivery, highly recommended.”
“I ordered one of these Jackets on the back of my husband buying one. Brilliant for dog walking. I’m a size 16 but sized up as I like to have room for layers and filling my pockets with poo bags etc. The lining is lovely and warm and chose to go for the black in colour. I definitely will buy again.”
