New Forest Ladies Traditional Wax Jacket Olive / 8 Reviews

4.8 Rating 483 Reviews
Good in all respects except the sleeves are too long but I often have this problem. Like the longer coat length but wish you could by a shorter sleeve version. I am otherwise delighted with my purchase and the speedy delivery.

This coat is to replace an old Barbour of similar style. It was a far better value for money coat and will serve me well for years to come.

I'm so pleased I chose this company to order a new jacket from, the jackets are very good quality and a good price. After reading the reviews for this product, they almost all stated jackets are larger than normal and one stated that a size 16 would fit a size 20, this is correct they are large.

First of all, I cannot fault your execution of my order. It arrived promptly and with all the information neccesary to ensure that I was at home to receive my order. Top marks! However, as someone who does not fit the "average" women's size categories, I faced a real conundrum of which size to order. I did measure my most recent coat purchase according to your guidelines, but you gave no guidance on hip measurements. This, for women, is absolutely vital! It's quite clear that you are basing your measurements on men's sizing! Please remember that there are women out there who want to buy your jackets. Luckily I took my own measurements into consideration and therefore, by chance, chose the right size for me. I admit it's not perfect, but I do think you might need to add additional size guidance for potential women buyers.

Apart from Not being waterproof, this jacket is well made and a good fit. It will be ok for a light, brief shower only -certainly not winter dog walks.

Very pleased with this jacket. Excellent quality and arrived in a couple of days. The jacket is "large for size" as stated in the information, so no need to order big to fit fleece etc underneath. Sleeve length is usually a problem for me in women's clothes, but these are plenty long enough. Great value for money.

Love my new jacket. Bought this after sending a much more expensive famous item back ( different seller). I had to buy the 20 to fit chest, so for me jacket is a little on the long side and sleeves also very long. Sleeves are a bit wide as well. I love it though. Keeps me dry and warm, and sweat free. Perfection would be shorter, narrower sleeves. Everything else is brilliant. Very good value indeed.

I bought the ladies wax jacket in Olive, size 8. I am usually a size 10 but reading the reviews which indicated they are generously sized bought a size smaller. Arrived quickly, I love the jacket and the colour, unfortunately it is too snug a fit. I am returning it and ordering a size 10. Would recommend this jacket
