ReFire Gear Men's Army Special Ops Military Tactical Jacket Softshell Fleece Hooded Outdoor Coat

•Warmth:This jacket is perfect for “layering”. Meaning, if you’re in snow or really cold temps and want to just wear “just” the jacket you will be cold. But I’ve worn it on a boat in the 40 degree cold going 65+ mph (felt like 2 degrees) and no wind or rain gets in it. I fish with a hoodie and this jacket over and I am incredibly warm.•Water proof/wind proof:Wind proof was one of the biggest reasons I needed this jacket and it’s 100% both water and wind proof. I’ve been in downpour with no cover and my body stayed dry. Winds on a boat did not get in at all.•Hood:The hood has GREAT draw strings around the face area as well as the standard draw string location. This is HUGE when your going 60mph on the water in the cold so it hugs the sides of your face. The jacket zipper goes high enough to give you a mouth covering which I love to keep that freezing wind off your mouth and neck in high winds.•Waist/ Wrist:The waist/wrist have a NICE draw string (waist) and Velcro system (wrists) so wind doesn’t go in the jacket and keeps the warm in.•Thickness:It’s plenty thick, I would say the equivalent to the thickness of jeans then you add the fleece layer and it’s definitely a good jacket. I think when you read the reviews saying it’s thin is because people are expecting a snow jacket. But if you wear a sweater or hoodie with this over it, you will be warm I’d say in temps of 35-40ish depending on if you tighten all the draw strings to insulate. Now if you want to go below the 35 range I’d either get a different jacket or wear thermal layer and a cold weather hoodie with this over it.•Size:I’m 5’10 245lbs chubby and a 2xl fits perfect “if” you are layering with a hoodie or sweater. If you want a sleek fit or if you wear thermals not a bulky sweater I’d go with an XL. This will make the sleeves and body fit tighter to the body.So far I’m happy with this jacket. I will update in a couple of months of fishing with it on to let you know how it holds up. If the 5 star is still up that means I still have no issues.

This is my second purchase - one black and one blue, both great colors. Bought 1 XL and one L . Both fit well. For size comparison I am 6-01, 190 lbs. The price for this well made jacket is unbelievable! Terrific well made softshell parka. The parka is lightweight with fleece lining that will keep you warm. The hood has cord adjusts for a proper fit and can be folded up and stowed if desired. Numerous pockets throughout and underarm vent zips. You cannot go wrong with this $50.00 jacket and is true to size. The lining should keep you warm into the 50s. For more warmth, consider layering underneath, such as a Magcomsen Puffer Jacket. The combined jackets will easily keep you comfortable below freezing.

Nice, well designed and mostly put together 'tactical' coat. Need to test how water repellant/resistant it is, but it's warm. Ordered 2XL given numerous mentions in reviews of it being undersized... it's about spot on sizing wise, but if you need to layer under it then going up a size is fine. One issue - one of the pockets (right upper arm) was not sewn shut at the bottom; I fixed it myself without issue, but other reviews have mentioned this as a miss so food for thought. Wish the arm and upper-side pockets had more sewn in compartments and loops to hold stuff.

It is a little smaller than I thought it would be, I ordered an XX-Large and it fits good, (I normally wear an XL) but if I have on a thick sweater, this coat is a little tight on me. It is made well, with good fabric for cutting the wind, nice design with sippers under the arm pits when you are working or walking or just need to cool down some, the hood is good to have on those cold and windy days. I would recommend it, just order a larger size than normal.

1/21/25: I purchased this jacket for my boyfriend. It's got zippered compartments everywhere. He's had it for a while and discovering different compartments to put things. He has worn this jacket during the coldest days that we'd had recently and says even though the jacket is light weight, it's very comfortable and warm. It's not bulky at all and easy to wear while driving, also. Glad I made this purchase. Thank you to the makers of this jacket and also to Amazon for making it available for a reasonable price.

Fast shipping, Good Quality , pictures and description totally mirrors product, size is true I am 511 195 fit and i like snug tactical look/ feel and M was perfect for me, not baggy clunky nor tight and restricting, middle sweet spot.

My true rating is 3 1/2 stars. There are things that I like but more that I don’t like. Let’s start with the zipper, I’m not sure why but for some reason there are 2 zippers on this coat. Both have to be engaged for the zipper to work properly. Once it is zipped it does form a water tight seal though. The fit is good I am 6ft 270lbs and xxl fit perfectly.The material itself feels ok although it seems like it was just thrown together without much thought or care for quality. There are strands of string hanging from everywhere. I wore it out for a walk in windy 27* temps. It did block the wind pretty well it failed with the cold. The hood is just awkward, unless you have a very large and oddly shaped head the hood doesn’t fit if it’s just pulled on. The adjustment straps work very well and can get a snug fit. I also like the visor on the hood. The biggest fail in my opinion are the pockets. The main pockets are set way up on the rib cage which is just weird. They are also kind of small. I do like the stitched in key ring though. The arm pockets are big enough for the average cell phone or passport. That’s all there is for pockets. The 2 huge flaps inside the coat that look like pockets actually are not. I don’t know what the purpose of them are. I do like the large back pocket albeit a bit difficult to access. Overall I think for the price point there are better options than this coat.
