This is quality at its best! Triple stitching and zippers lay flat. Metal zipper with pulls! This jacket is made for work, but clearly will work for all around wearing as well. This is a good looking jacket. The jacket is durable and versatile. The hood and flannel lining is so comfortable, not to mention WARM! This jacket is made for COLD weather. Not for mild conditions and or indoor use. Unless you work in a meat locker. SO many pockets for any thing imaginable. The concealed carry pockets are fully functional and will accommodate large frame pistols. Molle modular design makes for easy adaptation for many holsters that are readily available. I did purchase the One Tigris holster as recommended. Carries a .45 ACP very well. Not that I would carry that on a daily basis, but can if needed. The pockets have backup snaps along with velcro. The flap cannot be pulled down to where a weapon would come out. Numerous other pockets for cell phone, magazines, keys and wallet. The quick elastic draw in the hood is not my favorite. I would rather have a shoe string draw cord. Im sure it could be modified as well. Overall this jacket is a VERY good buy at this price. For fit, the shoulder gussets, expandable waist snaps and velcro straps on the wrists allow for extra comfort and fit. The canvas type material on the shell meets and exceeds my other "name brand" jackets. The jacket is machine washable, and will shrink some, but very little, as there is some cotton material.
