When I was living rough in Washington during the Pandemic, a friend gifted me this jacket because the one he had was much too big for him. I was very grateful because it was thick, warm, had a hood, and was best of all, tough. I used It in all kinds of weather every year till this Spring. It wasn't a new jacket when it was given to me, but now it's finally faded, the sleeves are ripping, and the inner part is matted. Signs of a well-used and well-loved jacket. I was very excited to get a new one after finally trying to look into the brand. It arrived this past week and I have loved seeing how good it can look when it's new. Now I have two of them, one for work and one for cruising.
