“This is my second jacket from New Forest , my last was perfect and is still being worn for dog walks just as warm as the day it was bought 6 years ago . The new one is made the same but has to hand pockets added , I hope this one is as good as my old one. I have no hesitation in recommending this company may they continue to flourish with their quality products.”
“Ordered a size down, fits a bit larger than the Antique jacket but still nice. Padding is nice and the zipper has been updated so it’s not metal, slides much nicer now.”
“The jacket is well made and good fit I have just one small gripe the zip is awkward to get started it takes several attempts to line up before the zip will finally lock together.”
“Gone are the days of shivering through damp mornings and cursing unexpected downpours. My life has been transformed by the magic of waxed cotton, all thanks to my jacket. From the moment I slipped it on, it felt like an instant bond, a promise of adventure and protection against the elements.
Built to Brave: The quality is undeniable. The thick, tightly woven canvas exudes a rugged charm, whispering tales of weathered fields and windswept moors. The stitching is meticulous, every seam a testament to craftsmanship that's built to last. I know this jacket won't just face a few sprinkles; it's ready to conquer whatever weather mother nature throws its way.
Weatherproof Warrior: Rain beads up and rolls off like tears off a duck's back. Chilly gusts are met with a cozy embrace, the waxed cotton forming a barrier against the biting wind. I've even navigated snowdrifts with a grin, feeling more like a seasoned explorer than a city dweller.
Function Meets Flair: But this jacket isn't just about brawn; it's got brains too. The pockets are plentiful and perfectly placed, swallowing maps, snacks, and phone with ease. The adjustable cuffs and hood keep the elements at bay, while the corduroy collar feels like a luxurious hug. And let's not forget the style! The classic silhouette transcends trends, offering a timeless edge that never goes out of fashion. I feel effortlessly cool, like a character straight out of a vintage travelogue.
More Than a Jacket, a Companion: This isn't just a garment; it's an extension of my adventurous spirit. It's been my trusty companion on blustery hikes, cozy bonfire nights, and rainy city strolls. It's seen muddy fields, salty sea air, and the warm glow of campfires. With every scratch and patina, it gains character, telling the story of our shared adventures.
If you're looking for a jacket that's equal parts style and substance, look no further. This isn't just a purchase; it's an investment in comfort, protection, and adventure. It's a promise to embrace the elements, head first, with a smile on your face and a heart full of wanderlust. Trust me, this isn't just a jacket; it's a gateway to a waxed wonderland – and I wouldn't trade it for the world.
Five out of five stars, wouldn't hesitate to re-wax!
P.S. Don't forget the fun of re-waxing! It's like a mini ritual, a chance to bond with your jacket and keep it looking its best. The warm scent of the wax, the satisfying buffing motion – it's like giving your trusty companion a spa day. Just trust me, it's addictive!”
