Men's Waxed Cotton Overshirt

Quality jacket, lightly padded and stylish.....gives the 'Skyfall' jacket run for its money especially as it is vastly less expensive. Would go one size up though.

What Alvin said in his review is unfortunately completely correct. In many ways, this is the jacket I have been searching for. In it´s choice of materials, pockets and casual, cool, but high quality looks. But the shape and sizing of the jacket should be redesigned/remeasured. The arms and shoulders are way to tight. I am not a particular muscular guy, but still this jacket fits too tight. It would probably help going two sizes up, but then the rest of the jacket would be far too big. Quality wise, it is mostly fantastic. My exact jacket though, have hand pockets where the seams have broke. May be just mine, but it would be great if they reinforced the jackets with some metal on the pockets top and bottom sides. Thanks Celtic and co for what is mostly a great jacket. Good luck in upgrading it with a better (more athletic) fit and reinforced pockets! Greetings from Norway

Received this jacket today. It is beautiful and fits like a glove. I especially appreciate that it is made in the UK. Size was a little unclear when ordering, but it turned out to be pretty much true to size. I am generally in between sizes (Medium to Large) but usually I fall in Large size. I am 41" chest, 5'10" Height (178cm) and 190lbs (85kg). Average build. The Large fits right for me - a little snug, so not too much room underneath layering but as I live in Australia I expect to wear it with a t-shirt or shirt..

We all know that online sizing can be a gamble. On reading the mixed reviews regarding sizing of this overshirt/ lightweight jacket I emailed the company and they couldn’t have been more helpful. I’m 5’10 44” chest and the large fits mr perfectly., designed to be worn over a shirt or lightweight jumper. Quality is great, really pleased.

Great jacket but it is has an identity crisis. The sizing is totally wrong irrespective if you consider it an overshirt or light jacket. I think it is too padded to be an overshirt, and it proportions are all wrong as a light jacket. The sizing is far too small compared market equivalents, the large is a medium at best. If you want to wear it with a jumper you may need to go two sizes up. No idea what is happening with the arms they're short and remarkably tight on the shoulders - so it is great if you don't the full use of your arms. Would be an excellent addition to any wardrobe (or coat rail?) if it wasn't so oddly sized. I was really excited to receive this and then equally as disappointed when I tried it on. It is well priced but getting the sizing right is a basic.

Really nice coat but the fitment guide was way off. I originally purchased an XL due to my 41" chest but it was huge. I then returned it for a M which is supposed to be for a 38" but fit perfectly.

Fairly snug. I am 6ft and 75kg lean. It fits snug -can have a thin jumper underneath. Warm enough without a jumper to about 10 degrees Celsius. Then below that you’d want a jumper. Very good quality and well made.

Excellent fit and feel. So far seems very robust against the weather conditions for which it was bought.

Worn the jacket almost daily since I got it, so yes I like it especially with the wet weather we have been having. Only gripe is sizing is not as shown in the picture so had to guess it. Got xxl because I normally wear size 42 jacket. Expected it to be more fitting over shirt ended up being oversized.

I’m 6 foot tall, 86kg and average build but had to exchange Large for XL. The XL fit is still short in the arms and tight across shoulders. The only difference is the waist is bigger. I’ve also had the collar tailored to half its size as it was a lot bigger than how it looks online.

I found this jacket perfect for layering over a t-shirt or a shirt. The quilting keeps you warm and the elements out. Can be dressed up or down. Excellent quality and value for money. I ordered S and am 168cm, 62kg

It's silly to give this item one star: It's obviously very solid and from handling it I'd expect it to last a long while. It's just really cramped. I ordered a large cardigan and the XXL version on this 'shirt' (it's a light jacket, really) and the XXL came out a little too small ing length. And there was no way I was wearing the cardigan under it: The arms are a very tight fit. I have no idea how they photographed the model because I wouldn't be able to wear anything woolen under this and expect to move my arms. A minor nuisance is that this jacket has no zippered pockets (in or out) meaning I can't store my wallet or phone anywhere without fear of them falling out when handling the jacket.

Although advertised as “48” chest the fitting is extremely tight and unwearable with any shirt / tee shirt underneath!

Great kit - at 5’10 and 96kg, the XXL was the right size. Can wear thermal shirt and medium weight jumper underneath.

Tried to order twice , each time to be told out of stock... Customer service very much "computer says no .. " Still says 2 med available... Sort your stock control out? If you stock it for real would love to actually buy it

More than an over shirt, warm and shower proof.

Overall a fantastic jacket. Very well made and excellent quality materials. Also somewhat unique style-wise. Only two things that I’d comment that could be improved. As this is styled as a shirt, the top three poppers/fasteners are, perhaps, a little too literal in their shirt-style placement. The top two poppers are a little high and the third a little low. I think two poppers, with slightly different placement, would be an improvement. The other point is the size, which is perhaps just a smaller than one might expect for a 48” (the size I bought). It’s fits fine over a thin sweater, but I’d love just a tiny bit more room in the shoulders. The arms, while perfect in length, are a little narrow. The wool lining, which is wonderful, does of course take up a bit of space. Overall, though, these are very small concerns and don’t detract at all from my enjoyment of the jacket. It is fast becoming a firm favourite. The website says they won’t be restocked. I hope this is not the case, as it is a most excellent and rather unique waxed shirt-jacket.
