Lee Men's Denim Jacket

DISCLAIMER: I have absolutely no brand loyalty and I write this review solely in my capacity as a consumer.I bought a Levi denim jacket (M) in stone wash a few weeks ago and that made me want to get a black/dark gray denim jacket. This Lee jacket was about 1/2 the cost of the Levi one so I got it. Here's a quick overview:Pros- very affordable- good colorCons- poorer quality (I can honestly say that I wouldn't be surprised if my Levi jacket lasted a good 20 years. This garment has probably less than 3 years in it)- light weight material (this jacket could pass as a heavy denim shirt; It's not durable enough to be a "work" jacket)- stretchy (I find that the benefits of stretch material in pants don't really transfer to jackets)- slimmer fit (I'm 6'2 180lbs. This jacket looks fine on me, but if I were just a bit heavier, it would look a bit tight)Final Thoughts: This jacket is half the cost of a similar Levi jacket so if price is your determinant factor, get this one. However, I believe the added cost of the equivalent Levi jacket (even double cost) is the better buy. I didn't want to spend too much on a 2nd denim jacket, but after wearing the Lee jacket for a day I will be returning it and purchasing the more expensive Levi jacket, the overall better buy.

I liked the look of this jacket,but I`m in my 60`s with a little extra weight and fair mussel tone.The diameter of sleeves on this jacket was too small ,but it fit everywhere else. It is a very light jacket not much thicker then a denim shirt.I tried 2 more jackets in my price range.I tried a Wrangler Cowboy Cut jean jacket it was the same thing,tight sleeves.I ended up with a Wrangler Rugged Wear jean jacket, it has plenty of room in the sleeves.The Wrangler Rugged Wear is a longer heaver jacket ,not waist length,at least on me .I hope this helps I am not a spokesman for WRW, I am just trying to save you some time .

The stretch denim is a different choice for a jean jacket and some people might like that. However, after the first wash and dry, the material shrank differently on the sleeves and cuffs, which makes the cuffs stand out while the sleeves are more form fit. It makes an odd profile, like bracelets or something. I don't care for it. I'll be replacing it soon and passing it along.

I've been a Lee Jeans devote since 1957. I've always found great satisfaction in Lee Jeans; I have 4 colors on hand at all times. They are great in every way. I was wanting a mid-weight, stylish, versatile, rugged (when necessary), long lasting, easy-to-maintain (just toss it into the washing machine) Jacket. So of course, I turned to my old reliable brand, LEE, and I found this great Black Jeans Jacket. It was reasonably priced; it fits perfectly; it looks great; and it goes with a big variety of pants and shirts, sweaters, even cargo shorts. I've worn it thus far with both deck shoes and athletic shoes. Talk about VERSATILE. All this and Comfortable, too. Get yourself one. You need this piece in your wardrobe. Works for me.

I've been looking for a black denim jacket for a while now. This is everything I've been looking for. Great quality for a decent price. Definitely glad I found a trusted name and didn't go with one of the no-names that are all over amazon. Now enough of that, on to the details.I got the black one and was glad to see it wasn't jet black like some I've seen. Has a nice aged look to it. Also, the buttons don't rattle and the dark gray color blends in well with the color of the denim. I'm 6.0' and it fits great. Not too tight around the chest and sleeves are the perfect length. If I had a complaint its that the bottom around the waist is a little shorter than I would like. Mainly only bothers me when my t-shirts hang down too far below jacket. It does sit right at my waist. Maybe another half-inch or inch in length would be perfect. So I'd just be wary of that if you have a longer torso. Also, I didn't see it mentioned when purchasing but it does have a bit of spandex in it, so it stretches a little. It doesn't bother me, though I know some people don't like it.Overall this is a great jacket for the price

I haven't bought a jean jacket since the late 80s and this one definitely rivals those in quality, but I gotta say the fit is spot on. Rolling the cuffs up once and it is bang on. I do see what people are saying about every button saying "Lee" on it, but it is a small price to pay for such a nice jacket. I don't know what people are taking about when they say it is too thin on material. I say it is the perfect cool night jacket, but I tend to run warm so I don't need much thermal protection. Do yourself a favor and get this one. Highly recommended.

It does not offer the same weight and durability of the original jacket but it retains its masculine classic style.It's "real denim" cotton not the stretchy spandex material in skinny jeans so I am confident it will hold up well from work to fishing.lIt's made in China so wash it twice to rinse out extra dye.

I have an older Lee jacket that I purchased from AMAZON, at my AZ home, can't get to it at this time. So I purchased a new one from you. Same size and make as the last one that I bought from you. The new one came in and it was too small and the material is much thinner than one older one. I don't want it, Find some other place to have them made.
