Good jacket
A simple serviceable wool jacket. Rather expensive but pleasing to wear. I think I recall seeing it in the 1965 catalog and wanting one ever since. If it wasn't in there, it sho

I've had this shirt-jac in Malone for a couple of years. It's a great weight for cooler weather and looks good. The wool can feel a little scratchy on bare skin--a light lining wou

I was looking for something less than a coat and heavier than a shirt. This is the perfect in between and will layer well. Very well made and absolutely quiet if you are a hunter

So this is my three-year review of this jacket. TLDR, it has held up well, I love it, but I don't think it's worth the full price Bean's is currently asking. Read below for details

True to size and comfortable. Thick enough to go through the briars but not so heavy to sweat too much while hunting.

Great Jac-Shirt. Sleeves too long.

Only negative is the sleeves are too long. The availability of the 2nd cuff button lets you tighten the cuffs to deal with this.

I thought it had a lining but it doesn’t. It runs smaller than most LL Bean stuff I have ordered in the past. I ordered a 2x large and it is a little smaller than I expected.
