Happy Customer,
April 15, 2013
By: Dazz45
from UK Northern Ireland
"Firstly, the delivery of the jacket was on time.
The jacket is of a high quality and fits well. I am aproximately 6ft tall and weigh 78kg so I rang up the customer services prior to purchasing to confirm the correct size for me, the women that I spoke to was very helpful and knowlegable about the jacket and advised that I should definately order a medium size jacket, she was right.
there maybe two things that I would question about the design of the jacket.
1. There is no closure system (zips,buttons or poppers) on the hand warmer pockets so when I was out in the rain the other day water was getting in.
2. I think the jacket would benefit from having an internal drawstring at waist level, or there abouts. This observation is two fold, it will prevent heat loss out of the jacket and also gather in and contour the jacket to the wearers body shape.
I did not get any product care instructions with the jacket so in time I will have to contact Orvis to confirm the corect way to clean and reproof the jacket, I think a more comprehensive guide should be available with the jacket.
These are not criticisms just observations that in my opinion could improve, what is a well made and fit for purpose jacket.

Quality but no substance,
April 3, 2013
By: Searchingforbrilliant
from UK
"From the title you may surmise that I don't like my jacket, that is not the case, it's great. But is it brilliant, that is another question.
You may have spent £200 on a jacket before, and expected fine finishes, functionality, and that fun element, this has it all; but does it have the additional wow factor, or the feeling of greatness every time you use it, no, it falls short.
So, if your looking for a 'great' jacket, then yes buy one if you can afford it. If your looking for 'Brilliant', you may be returning it.

Very good purchase for me,

"The product does what I want it to do, which is be an in between weather out coat. So far, I've picked days that have been a wee bit too cold without wearing a heavier top (sweater) under the jacket. Otherwise, the jacket is what I've been looking for regarding fit and finish. he color is okay, too."

Coat of Arms,
March 24, 2013
By: AvidUplander
from Casper, WY
"Recently purchased the Heritage Field Coat. I have been wearing it as an all-weather coat over a shirt or sweater on cooler days. The game bag is not really functional, as there is not a way to drop it down for cleaning. As an all-around casual coat with great fabric feel, you won't be disappointed with this Heritage Field Coat. Has a two-way zipper, which is a must."

Good product except zipper,
March 21, 2013
By: gamehunter
from Washington, DC
"I swapped the olive for dark khaki color. The process was very easy. I like the jacket, it's of good quality, but the zipper is a hassle to catch. Once you get the hang of it, it's less annoying but takes practice."

"I needed a coat for casual Friday at the office, but one that will also keep me warm outside.
This coat is extremely comfortable right out of the box. It fits well and is sized true. It seems well-made and durable.
I am very satisfied.

"I needed to replace my aging field coat and decided to go for quality, that brought Orvis to mind, and I was not disappointed.
The coat was delivered as promised and I am very impressed with quality of cloth, fit, design, and features.
The material is durable without being stiff, the zipper, buttons and snaps are of excellent quality, fit and finish.
The coat fits well, leaving room underneath for layering, all the pockets are easily accessible and functional.
All in all an excellent coat for mild to cold weather with an outdoor style."

"My wife surprised me with this coat this past summer for a late birthday present...I have admired this coat for years and just never would "pull the trigger" on it!...I actually like this one vs the newer updated version , because of the "traditional old fashion red lining"...It is now my favorite coat...Very versatile , very traditional , stylish and good looking...I wore it daily in Nashville this past Christmas during a family vacation and it was absolutely perfect...With jeans during the day or slacks at night out to dinner...AND as usual the Orvis High quality!"

Heritage Field Coat is a direct hit!,

By: CountryGrandad
from Minneapolis
"Size, construction, quality, fit, price; this coat has it all. Like all Orvis goods this jacket was made right, for the user. It's all been said in previous reviews, I'm just here to reitterate other's opinions. You absolutely won't go wrong with this coat. The medium is a perfect fit for a 40 regular."

"Overall a great jacket. Cozy, with ample room and once you get the waxed outter shell broken in you could sleep in the darn thing.. Only hitch is the reversable zipper(s) are tough to get latched.."

The Coat I've Been Looking For,
February 27, 2013
By: Mark67
from Albuquerque, NM
"I've been searching for a coat like this for years. I had one many years ago that I loved, but eventually wore out. My wife and friends all comment on how nice it looks and I couldn't be happier about its fit and finish. I love having all the pockets to carry my "stuff." I am retired now and plan to live in it until the warm weather forces me to take it off until fall."

By: tookie

"What a wonderful, smart casual field jacket. This jacket is perfect to wear with jeans and a shirt or sweater. It also can double as a field
hunting jacket but I will wear my old jacket for that.
Very good quality and on sale, thanks Orvis for a great jacket .
