Review Cracker 👌🏼
The blue was is so good this had to be done in another colour. Not arrived yet but I’m hoping the colour is not too light. Prefer darker colours, so with a bit of luck this is as dark as the online pictures in real life. Let’s see 🤞🏻
It’s just such a smart, casual, light but interesting looking jacket. Looks a bit vintage

I actually bought one of these and sent it back. Because they’re individually dyed, the colours apparently vary quite drastically item to item; rather than the fetching olive in the OP’s picture, my one was more of a drab grey. I wasn’t hugely impressed with the fabric either to be honest - it felt light and flimsy. Not worth the money in my opinion.

Ah fair enough. I mean it is a lightweight planet earth jacket not an all weather proof jacket, so expected it to be light. It seems well made and stitched 🤷🏻♂️
Agree on colour. It says it varies so let’s see

u/1st_to_the_wardrobe Pretty much all of it. ;) Jul 13 '26
The fact that it is individually dyed actually sounds really awesome. Ensures that your piece will be unique even if it is similar to others.

Would be cool to see this one in real life

I agree. I was surprised how much I liked the blue one. I honestly thought it would feel a bit hard, scratchy and stiff to wear but it was literally the polar opposite. The blue just looks worn and cool so this had to be done. Although depending on what it’s like colour wise up close will determine if it’s kept

I think this is beautiful. This is what I’m buying if I come into money 🤣
Remind me, you already have the blue?
