Runs a little large
Size: X-Large Tall, Color: Antique Indigo
Awesome jacket! I am a vintage Lee Rider jacket man since high school. All Made in USA from denim Made in USA. Oldest from High School. Think I bought a Wrangler jacket once and it was not fitted like a Rider, boxy and baggy. Returned it.
Wanted to try a Wrangler or Levi jacket after wearing Lee jackets for over 50 years. Modern Lee are Lee by name. After reading a 100 reviews the Wrangler reviews were consistent. The Levi reviews were all over the place, small, large, thin, thick, all cotton, stretch, made no telling where. Ordered this jacket.
Ordered a XL Tall. Usually wear a XXL. But running large was a consistent comment. Sized to fit a hoodie under. Built odd, 48 jacket, 37 shirt sleeves, 36 pants are loose fit.
The sized down jacket fits a little loose. May shrink down a little, washed twice yesterday.
But like all Bangladesh made clothes I have owned the quality is equal to my 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s Made in USA Lee Rider jackets. The denim is top quality, the stitching is even and well done.
Not as slick as my Diamond Gusset denim jacket on finishing inside, think 700.00 suit coat quality, but equal to any of my five Lee jackets. This is a Tough Wear and not an Italian suit coat.
Living in Houston we only see a month or two of jacket weather a year. Wearing shorts and tee shirt today. So stores do not stock year round. Amazon was a gamble on size and quality. Looked before ordering, no stores had jackets in stock after first of the year to try size and fit.
I got lucky. Fit like a XXL Lee Rider or Diamond Gusset. Quality of denim and construction are top notch.
Much recommended, just order down on size if you are borderline on sizes.
