Rated 5 out of 5 by llbeanfan61 Husband loves this
I purchased this coat for my husband because he loved mine, he absolutely loves this coat, and considering the cool, wet spring we are having it's the perfect in-between coat, too warm for winter jacket, too cool for no jacket.
As always, LL Bean has come through again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by troy1 Original Field Coat A Great Classic
This coat is and always has been a staple in my family. My husband still has his from the 1980's and it still looks good. I am sorry to see that you have discontinued this style for women. The Adirondack barn coat is no comparison. Please bring these back for women with the original relaxed fit. No princess seams please. Built exactly like the mens please.

Rated 5 out of 5 Men's Field Jacket
This is the fourth field jacket I have ordered for my husband. He wears it for hunting as well as pleasure and would not consider another jacket from another company. It's construction is nearly indestructible and over the years it has maintained it's color and shape after numerous washings.

Rated 5 out of 5 Barn Coats - Best for Outdoor Work
This is my third barn coat from LL Bean. The first was Bretton Red, the second was Green and my newest the Tan. I still have my Bretton Red, even though my wife is determined to throw it out. I wear it for snowblowing, oil changes, chain saw work, composting, cleaning gutters. It's a work coat. And good for years of work.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Duxgal It was a hit!
I sent this jacket as a gift to my adult son for his birthday. He loved it! He said it was very cool and warm to boot. I don't always score a hit so I was very pleased indeed. I guess picking a timeless style is the secret.
It was shipped immediatly and arrived within days, which was an added bonus.
Thanks for making me look good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by PLESMAN Well Made - Warm - But Fit is BIG!
My husband has had a coat like this for years and years. This is probably the third replacement over some 18 years. He absolutely loves them and the only way I can get him to part with them when they become threadbare is to promise him I'll get him a new one first! The "broadening" of America has brought on one problem though and that is that the medium of yesteryear is now very large. So we had to return the medium for a small which fits him perfectly even with a sweater under it. I think if you have a truly lean frame, you wont want this coat because it will be too large!

Rated 4 out of 5 by NortheastGuy Just as I'd thought
Received the jacket as a gift and had fond memories of a similar jacket from years ago. Hard to believe the temperature rating given for the jacket from just looking at it, but it is accurate. Weatherproof and with a scarf or neckgaitor , draft resistant also. Size "L" is roomy enough for layers and not too baggy with just a shirt. Classic color that I'm looking forward to seeing age after washing and usage. No doubt a good buy, especially when on sale.

Rated 5 out of 5 by AnnetteMc The Perfect Field Coat
My father purchased this field coat over 30 years ago and has used it with rigor. My father passed the field coat down to me and it looks as good as the day it arrived in the mail from Beans when I was a kid. It is such a cool coat, my teenage son has worn it everyday since I got it and now claims the coat as his!
The wool liner makes this a very warm coat and is removeable to make it a true 3 season jacket. The construction is top drawer and the jacket will last forever!
Congrats to Beans on creating a classic for generations to enjoy together!
