My favorite jacket
I have had this jacket for 2 years now so I feel like this should be a really trustworthy review. This jacket is awesome. I love it more every time I wear it.

Hi Matt, thank you for taking the time to submit this review! You're right, it is extremely helpful to both customers and our designers to hear how our gear is performing over time. We're stoked to hear you've been so happy with this jacket!

My Journey with this Jacket
3 years ago, my mental health worsened and I lost control of my weight. At the time I was in community college in sunny southern California where I had never even felt snow firsthand. When I sent out my applications to transfer to an Engineering Program, I got accepted into my dream school in Indiana. This meant I would need a cold weather jacket. ... Read MoreFast forward a few months and I am on a summer road trip with some friends and we pass through Ventura, CA, home of Patagonia headquarters. I stumbled upon this jacket, bought it, and loved it every time I wore it at school. My mental and subsequently physical health improved over greatly over the following year as I adapted to university life. I lost 100lbs. The jacket still sits in my closet, I still love it but I hope it never fits me again!
I want to like this jacket it fits great like it was made for me however the sleeve cuffs are too tight. I cannot even wear my smallish Casio watch if wearing this jacket.

Stunning Detail
I was stunned as I began to wear this rather inexpensive coat how warm it was and how carefully thought out every detail seemed to be, right down to good insulation, a silky lining that slides on easily, internal sleeve cuffs that protect against wind and snow, solid zipper and button wind flap. this is easily a $400 coat for under $200...build to ...

This is one of those pieces that you can be rough with, without worrying about ruining. The more you wear it, the more it shows. I really like the benefit of just machine washing pieces like this. With my other Patagonia jackets that are more technical, I don't feel like I can just wash the sweat/grease/grime off of as regularly.
The jacket is a lot softer and lighter than I expected while still maintaining a durable feel to it. It's also pretty warm - perfect for spring and fall temperatures with plenty of room for layering if needed. The hand pockets have a nice soft, insulating lining and are quite spacious.

One thing I didn't expect is how heavy the jacket is. I'm not mad as I want something that I can work hard in. Just be aware that this isn't a lightweight technical piece - it has some heft. Another thing, it's true what others have been saying on here: this jacket runs large. Specifically, it's large in its girth and lengt...

To start off, I am generally a size M in most clothing (40R suit jacket) if it is a non-slim regular fit. I find that Patagonia M items especially in outerwear lately have been a bit snug like a hug however not tight nor uncomfortable. I prefer to reserve some room for layering options in this type of outerwear. This M size ranch jacket is a wonder... Read Moreful fit for me and what I was looking for. I have read the reviews some stating to size down but glad I did not. It leaves room to wear a sweatshirt or sweater underneath but still looks good with a lighter layer like a button down. The other aspects of the jacket are top notch as other reviewers have noted but mainly wanted to speak about the fit.
This Jacket has the goods. Firstly the size is true to a loose fitting Medium. Tried the Small but sleeves too short, torso is pretty wide and will hem it up (am 5 feet, 9 inches and very slim w/ extra log arms, yes really, my hands almost touch my knees). The length is good even when bending over does not leave your 'ass in the wind' as ... Read Moreit were. Some great key features are the double cuffs (one insulated inner and one protective outer) also the flap guard over front zip a massive winner for longevity of upper and extra protection in work zone. Inner lining is very easy wearing, not creating any resistance or static electricity, plus is easy to clean. Insulation is warm, but allows fir some warmth to be present w/ out overheating, through 3 seasons of the year. collar adds some warmth but could possibly use some light lining to avoid the itches! Pockets are well situated and lined w/ light insulaltive layer, Could use the 'rear glove pocket' featured on vest though as a suggestion. Goes well w/ the similarly designed hemp canvas work vest or stand alone. Thanks fir another legend garment!
The hemp blend gives an unexpected softer more flexible feel. The inside insulation is surprisingly warm and I've been using this jacket daily in the current 30 degree weather effectively. It's become my go-to jacket. Well built, warm, stylish, yet rugged. This jacket has it all. Very pleased.
I purchased this jacket becuase I was looking for a durable jacket for chores and yard work. It exceeded my expectations for durability, functionality, comfort and warmpth. I hope it lasts forever.
Im normally a Large but had to return due to being too big. I ended up exchanging it for a medium and its perfect. Jacket is great for the cold weather and very comfortable. Great bu!
I'm 6'3", 210 pounds and I love everything about this jacket. Durable material outside, soft warm inside. The only issue I have is that it's a little large in the torso. The length is just right for me, but I feel like I could wear two puffy'ish vests with it. Still keeps me warm in 38-42 degree weather.
I bought this jacket specifically to use for work purposes. I haven't been out in rain yet but it is great in 30 degree weather. It's comfy and I enjoy just wearing it in my shop.
I was given this jacket approximately 5 years ago as a Christmas gift. Right out of the box the right handwarmer pocket was sewn poorly and was misshapen, the zipper had to be replaced and today a shoulder seam separated the material unraveled. I haven't used this coat for work if I did it wouldn't have lasted a year.

Very versatile
Love this jacket, I can wear and beat up and not be afraid of messing it up. I love how it looks and feels. The pockets are great as well, the left chest pocket inside is able to fit my iPhone 13 and wallet comfortably. Highly recommend
I own almost all of the work wear pieces, and while this is not my favorite, it is a great jacket. I'm 5'10, 190 and bought a medium. It fits great. Good overall coverage and sleeve length, and the gussets in the shoulders help with that when bending and reaching. It's true to size for a relaxed fit medium. The fit is defintiely larg... Read Moreer than a Patagonia regular fit medium, so keep that in mind. The material is tough and the lining is very comfortable and makes layering easy. This is a great work jacket if you don't need to carry a ton of struff around with you. The only outer pockets are on the chest, which don't hold much, and your hand warmers, which are generously sized but you have to give up some of that hand real eastate if you want to tote around something that won't fit in the chest pockets. I had to re-order one of these as the zipper was sewn too close to the fabric and caused binding. I'm also not a huge fan of the elastic cuffs inside the sleeves as it can sometimes interfere with layering, but it does add to warmth. The green color is awesome, and overall this is a good looking jacket. Probably the most casual-crossover looking item in the workwear line.
I absolutely love this jacket. Very comfortable and is definitely my favorite jacket I own. Very well made and the front pockets are great for keeping your hands warm on those cooler days. I would recommend this jacket to any and everyone.
So far I think the jacket is great. Took me awhile to get since I ordered a size up the first time. I normally wear an XL, should have just ordered that to start with. I was trying to make sure I could layer under it. There is plenty of room to layer under your normal sizing. Not that you need the layering, its warm by itself. The lining has a sati...

I bought this jacket because I liked the design and everything that has to do with work activities. buy medium size and maybe if it's a little big on me, other patagonia products the medium size is the one I buy.
The problem is that I have only used it 3 times and the bag on the right hand began to separate from the top.

Solid work wear
Amazing construction and design, great for layering for outdoor work or hiking. Only knock Ill give it is I wish the interior pocket was larger and horizontal like the Isthmus jacket. Otherwise will be wearing this at work for the next 5+ years.
This jacket kicks ass. Absolutely blown away by the quality. Going to be a family heirloom I pass down to my son or future grandson. I use it mostly on the ranch and up in the mountains chopping wood.

Extremely Comfortable
The cold is not so cold anymore. Has awesome pockets that I can fit a ton of stuff in and is insulated very well. 10/10.
I live in Maine and don't have a ranch but I do have a small maple syrup operation. It is fine to call the product a ranch coat. farm and small sugar shack opperation.
The jacket is warm but not too warm for me because normally I don't get cold easily. I really like the gussets behind the sleeves that give me lots of easy arm movement.
The build quality and design of this jacket is awesome. Love the durable hemp-blend fabric, the handwarmer pockets, and general sturdiness of this jacket. It also looks great.

Read Moregular fit outdoor recreation and casual wear (Better Sweater, Down Sweater, Nano Puff). This workwear relaxed fit is much different and involves ruminating on your use and personal preferences. I very rarely wear a size medium, but that's my preference for this jacket. I will primarily use this jacket for casual wear, hikes in brushy areas, and ranch visits. If I expected to do day-to-day serious work or wanted to do significant layering underneath, I'd go with my normal size of large which would be quite roomy for me. I also found that shrinkage for this garment, even using hot water and a hot dryer (which is probably not recommended anyway) led to quite minimal shrinkage. Point being, don't buy excessively baggy expecting significant shrinking to happen. If you can dial your size in, this is a helluva of a great jacket that should last for years and years in all kinds of conditions. I expect it only looks better with the patina of age and heavy use.
I really like this ranch jacket. I bought it in the Pinyon Green. Its a beautiful shade of green. Not too bright, not too dark. A very natural, well, pinyon green. Like the pine tree the color of it is influenced by.

The material and design of the pockets and what not; everything about it has a very rustic feel to it. Yes, as in related to the countryside outdoors, work, etc. It seems very purpose built. Ive worn it to work most every day this winter. Goes great with a hoody under it, or just by itself. I feel it fits true to size. I usually wear a size large in jackets. I wear a size large in this. It does seem to be made as to facilitate layering other clothes under it. Its not a snug fitting garment. Its very comfortable.
This material gives me the impression that over the next few years itll most likely form a nice (I dont know if its the right word for it since it isnt made of metal, but youll get what I mean) patina to it with repeated use.
Theres a few jackets my Dad has had since before I was born that I would wear in my teens, many years ago for me now. But I cherished those clothing pieces that belonged to my father very much.
I really hope this is one of those types of clothing pieces that can last a very long time and maybe catch the attention of one of my kids one day when theyre digging through my closet, and I then see them wearing it from then on. My first Patagonia purchase. Im very happy with it.
Although the L jacket fits me well, he opening at the bottom of the sleeves are too tight. I have to force my hand through the opening which pushed my watch up my arm. To remove the jack, I must pull the sleeve off with the opposite hand. I like the heaviness of the jacket but wear It as often

The fit isn't actually huge
Compelled to write a quick review.
This is certainly one of the best jackets Ive put an arm through. The quality and details are what I might find in a jacket of twice the price.
After reading some of the reviews, and experiencing how large the workwear vest is, I was apprehensive about the fit.
I found the fit to be just fine, and not as overs... Read Moreized as some have mentioned. 5'10" 165 lbs. here, and the Medium is the goods. There is just enough room to layer a vest underneath. Or an average hoody. With room to move. Arms were perfect length; if I had 'sized down' like several others have posed it would have not been a good fit. Its perhaps a size "Medium + 1/3.
The vest, and Farriers shirt are more oversized, from my view.
And I have to admit, I bought this used (aren't we supposed to try and do that?). The thing was obviously lived in for several years. Had been washed several times. And-- it was no worse for wear. No fraying or stressed seams. And the Thermogreen puff insulation wasn't packed down.
A lifelong jacket, even on its second owner.
Great piece for mild to somewhat cold weather. I have the hemp chore coat which is unlined as well. The Ranch Jacket adds a fairly thick lining, but still leaves enough room for a medium weight sweater. Two things are keeping me from giving it 5 stars: 1) the collar is not lined or protective enough for the cold; corduroy or fleece or sherpa with a... Read More throat tab would be a great addition; 2) the zipper is one-way--a two way zipper would be much better for this piece. Otherwise a fine jacket (although I'm not sure how I'm going to clean this piece since I don't dry clean.

This jacket is super comfortable
This jacket is super comfortable and a perfect fit. Feels already broken in right out of the box. Rugged for work, looks good casual - my new favorite coat I will wear for years.
My new favorite coat. This thing is rugged, and I expect to have it for many years to come. It's been awesome in a variety of temperatures and is built to work hard and last long.
I'm 6ft, 185lbs and the medium fits perfect. great for any activity whether working in the garage, going to work, or just being outside. movement is easy and the jacket is super warm. highly recommend.
Its warmer and more rugged than I anticipated. You can easily layer underneath. The only drawback is its inability to keep you dry when the weather decides to take a turn.

overall, good design
Good design with nice deep pockets without debris catching opening, quality construction & material.Biggest fault is tight cuffs & sleeves making it quite difficult to get my large hands in & out. Actually painful with my arthritis. Hoping will loosen with use.
Ordered a large which I usually am and had to return for a medium. If you order the correct size this is an amazing jacket for working outside in the cold weather. Love the pencil pockets and the feel of the hemp canvas material.
I ordered the large and it was too big. The medium fits me perfectly. I wish there was a stash pocket underneath the left chest pocket for a phone. The chest pockets are not big enough for one.

This is a beautiful, very high quality disappointment. Great materials and fit. I actually love the feel, weight and cut of this jacket. Unfortunately this is a fashion first jacket.

Read Moreeem a complete lack of thought as to the actual ergonomics, functionality and technical features of design.
Issues , hand warmer pockets . The placement is to high and the angle of entry is much to vertical or upright. This makes for an unnatural and uncomfortable hand and arm position . If you relax or rest your arms in the pocket it creates pressure on your arm and both the top and bottom seems of the pocket. Guaranteeing failure of seems with moderate use. Also small opening making use wearing gloves a problematic.
Then there is the complete failure to recognize that a cell phone is a critical piece of equipment while working. You need convenient , practical and easy access and storage for your phone. Breast pockets are to shallow so no way to secure your phone. Also breast pockets are small not to practical and almost impossible to access with glove on.
Interior zip pocket is good and bad. The Good, size and placement are spot on for a secure pocket. The bad, no easy access to phone if you use pocket for phone storage. You have 2 zippers and buttons to get thru to access pocket and then you have to fish your phone out.
And lastly , no drop pockets, or interior storage at all. Fail. Drop pockets and interior storage are absolutely necessary in cold weather work environments . A Place to keep things out of weather that are easily accessable is a must.
Unfortunately It would seems more attention was put into style and esthetics than the actual technical features of this jacket. Which is very surprising for a Patagonia product.
I'm Born and raised in Ventura. I live about 2 miles from Headquarters/GPIW. And I Have a ton of Patagonia gear. Granted mostly from the 80's and early 90's . And I can honestly say this first time I have ever been disappointed in a Patagonia product. Not the quality but the execution. I Will sadly be returning this jacket. And Hoping for a product update.

Speaking of sleeves, pet peeve of mine with similar jackets is fleece sleeves which makes slipping them on a chore. This coat's sleeves are smooth so slipping clothed arms into it is easy.

Mainly use this jacket for outdoor chores rain or shine. Have had for a year now and has held up great! Very comfortable! When I put it on, its like pressing the go button for loading firewood. If there was one thing Id change it would be adding flaps to the pockets so they dont fill with wood chips and sawdust so easily.
I really enjoy the ribbed knit where the wrist meets in the sleeves. Also, lifting up the collar helps keep the cold off the neck. The position of my stance when I put my hands deep into the pockets, gives me solid feeling of comfort. As much as the name describes as tough and rugged, and it is, what I feel is warm and cozy.

The jacket is heavier/warmer than expected, even for a guy who gets cold. With the right layering it can probably get me through much of the Virginia winter. The problem is, now I am looking for something less warm. Eye is on the Hemp Canvas Chore Coat, waiting for a re-stock.
Great weight and warmth. Very comfortable yet durable. New favorite coat. Is relaxed fitting so recommended one size down. Normally wear a large in all Patagonia but it was way too big- returned for a medium and it fit perfectly.
Ive never written an online review before but I received this jacket as a gift almost 2 years ago and have been very impressed. I didn't plan on using the coat for work but it was so warm and comfortable I was always throwing it on.

I have room in my wardrobe for one winter work jacket, and was sceptical when I placed my order that this this would be it. As soon as I tired it on, I knew I was keeping it.

Patagonia: Nice work! I would love to see this style in an unlined version for warmer days, or something similar with a zip closure.

Just received this as a gift from my wonderful fiancee. Pinyon green is darker than appearance online. That was a happy surprise for me. Super comfortable and feels burly.

This is the most comfortable jacket I own. It is also the heaviest. It feels like a weighted blanket. Not necessarily for outdoor / active use.
This style also runs large. I normally wear a Patagonia XL, but had to return it and swap it out for size Large.
Great jacket nonetheless.
This is a well-designed coat that could benefit greatly from just a few changes: Cinch snaps along the bottom hem would help the fit and keep the wind out a bit. Making the insulation a removable liner, or at least thinner to allow for layering, would turn this into a true three-season jacket. And adding zippers to all pockets, inside and out, woul...

Hi Kurt! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We really appreciate this feedback and we'll share this with our design team to keep in mind for future seasons.

Better than Carhardtt
Just like my title says. It's a much better jacket than any Carhardtt youre gonna buy. It's like it was worn in before it gets to you. Unlike Charhardtt (which is a great brand, dont get me wrong) being a tough jacket at first until you break it in. It's super soft but dont let that fool you from its durability. I absolutely love thi... Read Mores jacket. The hand pockets are warm with the fleece liner. Nice inside pocket. I like the pen/pencil pocket too, nice touch. I dont find myself cold in this jacket. Very durable too as I stated earlier. Wouldn't be afraid to go through a briar patch with this jacket. It does run big, I usually wear a large jacket with Patagonia. I exchanged for a medium and im glad I did. Usually the shoulders are tight but with this jacket being designed for some give in the shoulders the medium fits perfect. My only complaint with this jacket is the hidden elastic cuffs at the end of sleeves. I wear a watch and it seems to tight to check the time. Maybe it'll loosen up as wear continues. Overall, im very pleased with this jacket. Nicely done Patagonia!
this is a good garment, not just for work. warm, decent looking, feels and looks durable. snap and zipper front gives a choice for venting, pencil slots should have a buttonhole about half way down, pencils don't stay big very long. the only thing you might consider adding is a snap on hood. I'm about 6'1, 170 fairly fit and the med.... Read More fits well, just enough room for a mid weight hoody..
Maybe it is. The side pockets are perfect, the coat is extremely comfortable and cozy. I got it a little larger than I normally would so I can layer it over a sweater or another light coat.
We're so glad to hear this one is working well for you! That chest measurement on the size small is across the front, from armpit to armpit or side seam to side seam. We just wanted to mention it in case any other customers might think we meant the circumference. This "relaxed" fit design in size small should fit someone with a 37" chest with room to spare. Thanks for the review, Matthew!

I hope you like scarves.
Pros: The cuffs are perfect. No tabs, no snaps, no gimmicks, just elastic cuffs that work every time.
The fabric is quite stout. After a couple of seasons of decent wear it's starting to show in the usual spots, nothing bad. If anything, it looks better than new. The collar, strangely, seems to be wearing at least as fast as the elbows or poc... Read Morekets. The zipper looks dainty but works every time, no snags, and the tab is just big enough for a gloved hand. The fit is generous in the body. I can get a M's Large down vest underneath it.
Which brings the con: You'll have to wear this buttoned up all the way all the time. The insulation stops well-short of the zipper on each side of the front leaving you with a nice big cold stripe from belt to chin. The uninsulated collar & uninsulated storm flap don't do much to help. It's a shame because the relatively heavy material of the coat is generally excellent, it's just not in all the right places.
If you were looking for a true winter coat to use with no other outer layer, I'm afraid this isn't it, not even in the mid-Atlantic.
Hey Matthew, thank you for the review. We're sorry to hear that this isn't working out for you. We'd be happy to have a conversation with you to figure out how you're planning on using the jacket and in what conditions so we could offer alternatives. If you were looking for something Workwear specific, the [Men's Iron Forge Hemp Canvas Barn Coat](https://www.patagonia.com/product/mens-iron-forge-hemp-canvas-barn-coat/27795.html?dwvar_27795_color=DKAS&cgid=sport-workwear-mens) or the Men's Iron Forge Hemp Canvas Hooded Jacket might be a better fit for your needs.

I'm impressed
I was looking for a durable jacket/coat that also looks good and makes me want to wear it. They nailed it with this one. It required zero break-in, and is soft out of the box. The hemp canvas seems to be a winner and exactly what they advertised. As expected from Patagonia, it is seemingly high quality and well-built. The cut is great and fits me s... Read Moreo well. I'm 5'9" and 190lbs, and the Medium is perfect, allowing for some layering underneath but feels just fine without layers also. I have gotten so many compliments on it. I'll be wearing this thing for years to come and it will end up replacing half the other jackets I own.
The "ranch" in this products name threw me for a loop thinking it was going to be thick and heavy and stiff as would be typical for ranch type of clothing - similar to Carhartt. But I was pleasantly mistaken; it's so comfortable soft and warm. I'm currently wearing this in 30-40F weather with windchill and it's kept me perf... Read Moreectly warm. I've only had a short sleeve capilene t-shirt underneath! I'm 5'8" 155lb guy and the S fits me perfectly. One thought about this is if you have a thick watch, it might be unconformable to wear with this jacket on. The cuffs have little wiggle room and having a thick watch will make it snug. Very happy with this purchase!
First off let me start off as why I put kinda large.
Its alittle long goes past my waist which I dont mind at all, Im 5,8 around 180 if that helps anyone.
Ive officially had this jacket for 4 months now and this jacket gets the job done! I take it with me when i go hiking but I mostly use it for work, I work in a bread freezer breaking down shipmen... Read Morets. Its a warm jacket but I do need to layer because obviously its a freezer but all the pockets it has is perfect for me and my job. If you are on fence about getting it just get it, its warm, I can move around in it, it looks good. Best jacket I have.
This jacket has a great weight that to me reinforces that it will stand up to some punishment. It fits kind of large and I downsized to a Medium which gave me a perfect fit. The insulation can get a bit warm depending on the intensity of the work, but reassures me that it will still be warm enough on those colder days.
Bought an older version of this jacket back in the 90's. Great jacket but it was not sized correctly. It ran a little snug. My wife took it over and uses it as a barn jacket and loves it. Seeing her wearing it made me think of checking to see if you still made it. To my surprise you not only still offer it, you improved it. This jacket is size... Read Mored correctly and it's even better than the 90's version. It's my farm/ranch and you name it go to jacket. Great product. Looks like it will last forever.
I really like the material used for this jacket. It feels like it will last me many years. I normally wear size medium but after reading reviews I purchased a small and was very happy with it. I believe a medium would have been too baggy and create a much larger silhouette than I prefer. I am 5'7" and 180 lbs for reference. It's also... Read More warmer than I was expecting so that's a plus. I also received many compliments on this jacket in the two weeks I've had it. Would definitely recommend.
This item is near perfect, super heavy and warm, durable and I hope lasts my lifetime. Only feedback I have is that the forearms have almost no room on a Medium. It fits me slim and well everywhere else as I like a tighter fit, even though I wear a large size in all shirts. Larger arm openings would be great!
This jacket is beautifully constructed. I had always worn LL Bean jackets but really felt dissatisfied with their quality over the last few years. The jackets from them were starting to feel thin, cheap, and just not the style I was looking for.
This Patagonia is a truly amazing jacket. The stitching and materials are of really high quality, and t... Read Morehe sheer weight of it is awesome! It's so heavy and thick, and will keep me really warm this winter I think. At 100g of insulation, it is 20g more than my hunting jacket, which I wear in the dead of winter, sitting still in a windy tree stand.
My only issue was with sizing. I wear a Med or Large coat, depending on fit and such, and had to order 3 separate sizes to determine my best fit here, which was tricky because this jacket is constantly out of stock. After about 2 months of back and forth, I figured out a Small was the ideal size, which seems wild to me, but this jacket definitely runs HUGE. Sleeves are a bit tight, ironically, but I'm a tall, lean guy and I'm OK with them, but bigger buffer dudes might want to size up just for sleeve size - the Medium had much more roomier sleeves.
Great jacket. I hope it lasts me a long time.
I bought this jacket as a light coat to wear out. I was gladly surprised with its superb warmth and fantastic feel. It runs a little large making it suitable for those layering months.
Overall great work jacket. Form and function work well, simple yet of good style. I find I like the hemp materials of construction more as time goes on, being soft yet durable. With layers, the jacket is good and warm, but I would not consider it heavy on its own. I need to test it further, but so far I look forward to each time I use it. I agree m... Read Moreetal teeth in the zipper may be the way to go in stead of the plastic, but then again we hope to see more and more how the function stack up to said classical metal.
I am 6ft 5in and 230 lbs. I have not purchased a single item of clothing smaller than an XL since I was a child. This jacket in an XL is entirely too big. Fits well in the shoulders and arms but from the rib cage down it is a giant billowing mass. It leaves such a large opening around the bottom I find myself cold when I wear it as there is so much... Read More room for cold air to enter.
I love the way the coat looks otherwise. The materials and construction seem top notch. Unfortunately the jacket is almost useless to me.
Bought a Medium originally and exchanged for a Small which fits me (5'10" 160lbs) perfectly. Mediums in the daily shirt and cap crew are also a great fit for reference. This jacket is nice and warm, has a great weight to it and my wife tells me looks really good. Would definitely recommend.
We appreciate your feedback and all the details of fit and comfort. Like almost all of our [Workwear](https://www.patagonia.com/shop/workwear), this jacket has a "relaxed" fit design that will feel more generous. We're glad to hear that sizing down worked well for you, Sam!

Super comfortable out of the box
This jacket is amazingly comfortable right out of the box, and a practical chore jacket that also looks good when running around town. The jacket does fit kind of large which could be OK for layering, but I ended up sizing down for a perfect fit.
I wear L in all other Patagonia items I own but this Large jacket was the same fit as an XL. My brother came over with his XL jacket and tried it on and fit him great. Had to ship back.
Hi James, thank you for submitting this review. Yes, the Canvas Ranch Jacket is cut with a "relaxed" fit, which will be larger than a "regular" or "slim" fit. We're sorry it didn't work for you, but happy to see you've returned it. Please let us know if we can help you with other options!

More Sizing Options for Gender Neutral Folxx
Wish this fit had more variety for different sized bodies. The mens fit is not designed for AFAB bodies. The woman's style highlights the waist. As someone looking for sustainable high quality clothing, I wish Patagonia had more gender neutral options.
This is a great hunting jacket! VERY comfortable and quiet. Perfect for archery. It does run large so keep that in mind when ordering. I am an XL and the L fits. Love the jacket!
The jacket looks great, is incredibly warm and is perfect for fall work outside (and campfire nights). The XS fits perfectly, and I usually wear a small, so I would size up if you are between sizes.
We appreciate your feedback on the comfort and fit. Like most of our [Workwear line](https://www.patagonia.com/shop/mens-workwear), this jacket has a "relaxed" fit design so some customers choose to size down for a closer fit. Thanks for your review, Martin!

Gap Around Waist
I am 6' feet tall and weigh 150lbs and the medium jacket fits my arms, chest, and shoulders very well! However, there is a large air gap around the bottom hem of the jacket.

The jacket is super warm and fits great. This jacket is prime time.
Seriously the pictures don't do it justice. Just timeless style with a perfect, very natural looking color.

tight arms and cuff
I usually wear XL but sized down because of the recommendations. Torso fit ok but the arms were tight (not short) and difficult to get my hand through the cuff when taking it off. There were no Range Coat XL in stock so I went to the Barn Coat XL with the different cuff which fits well.
I've bought various Patagonia jackets over the years i.e. M's Down, Nano Puff, Isthmus, Better Sweater, Trucker Corduroy - but this jacket will quickly become my "go to" daily jacket. It's tough fabric is durable for work (but looks good for casual wear as well), runs true-to-size giving me good shoulder stretch/movement, a...

I also like the placement of the deep front pockets, although an additional inside-zip pocket would have made it more functional.

I bought this because I was getting so tired of all of my other insulated work wear being so stiff and binding. People who have worked in insulated Cotton Duck built clothing will know what I am talking about. This jacket is very soft and flexible. Not soft in a way that it seems like it will wear out or rip but soft in a way that I do not feel lik... Read Moree I am fighting my clothes all day while working. Very pleased with my purchase.
Oh this is how Bougie people never are too hot or too cold
This jacket blew my mind on so many levels. I have been searching for this holy grail of jackets my entire life. Being born and raised in Wyoming and running hotter than the Morningstar's decibel, finding a jacket that is well made yet doesn't have me sweating in 5 minutes is impossible. Or has me freezing when im out in the elements too ... Read Morelong.
This jacket is just hands down perfection. Its incredible heft and craftsmanship is only paired by the details put into this garment.
If you are T framed and blessed with a barrel chest with narrow waist, this jacket is also your go to. I ordered a XL first, even contacted customer service because the chest measurements state 44 for a large and im sitting high and tight at a 49. But when I got it... was way too large and looked sloppy on my frame. So I returned and ordered a large and BAM. Perfection.
If you are able to, I would highly recommend trying on sizes at a store first because I could see how this could wildly range for different frames and body types.
But don't think twice. Buy this jacket. You won't regret it. From the amount of compliments alone to the rugged build. This is a for life part of your wardrobe. From the office to the trail, it's built for it all.
We're sorry to hear the fit wasn't quite right on this jacket. The design is a "relaxed" fit, which is more generous than our "slim" and "regular" fit styles. Please reach out to our Customer Service team to discuss a return or exchange. We'll be happy to [help](https://help.patagonia.com/s/)!
Fit is just right. Love the color, the feel of the fabric (inner and outer), and all the pockets. Quality of materials and workmanship is superb. If the jacket was a woman I would marry it.
Thanks, Sam! We're pretty sure marrying a jacket isn't legal where you live, but we totally get it!

Sleeves Too Short
I love Patagonia products and purchased many. The quality is exceptional and they last forever. One problem I have consistently always had though, is sleeve length. If I buy a garment with correct fit in the torso, the sleeves are too short, necessitating that I go up to the next larger size but results in the chest/waist being way too big. I live ...

For some, this may make the sleeves too long but I would maintain that it is far easier to compensate for a sleeve that is too long, than one that is too short.

Look it runs a little big but Patagonia tells you that upfront. This jacket is top notch. Every detail is amazing. Im 6 foot 2 solid build medium is what you want trust me. Overhead reaching or bending over is no problem. The drop tail has your plumbers crack covered. The jacket allows for full shoulder/arm movements. I work in a refrigerated wareh...

I can bear hug a wooden pallet now and man handle it and this jacket just eats it up. Thank you for keeping this one under $200 for me Patagonia! Long time customer. Keep this iron forge line coming baby.
Figured itd be time to finally write a review Ive owned the jacket for 2 years now.
Keep in mind I am a farmer and am extremely tough on my clothes. If it wasnt for the ironclad guarantee and me being 30 mins away from a store, the jacket would be a tough sell because of price vs. durability.
The good: Very warm, very comfortable, and non restri... Read Morective. Fits well - meant to be layeredso it doesnt wear well with just a t shirt underneath. Pockets are big and deep (but thats also bad).
The bad: The front hand pockets are so high that your arms put a lot of stress on the stitching at the edge. Its been ripped and repaired, but needs another repair. The ribbed cuffs are kind of nice - but after a year they get stretched out and annoying, and you cant wear any type of warm glove without fighting them - Im going to see if they can remove them. The inside pocket is practically unusable because any hand bigger than that of a small child wont fit inside. The chest pockets are nice, I just wish the were an inch bigger so i could fit a phone or something useful in there and close the pocket. The cuffs are starting to fray - and I imagine theyll be toast by the end of the season - not sure how theyll repair that. The zipper has almost ripped completely off and will need repair as well.
Love the jacket, love that its repairable, and love the thoughtfulness in the manufacturing.
I'm 5'11" weighing in at 165 lbs and opted for the Medium based on reviews (normally a Large) It fits well with a tight long sleeve base layer and a long sleeve t-shirt.

I love this jacket! Its super warm, and doesnt feel stiff like most canvas duck jackets. Time will tell on durability but so far I think it will last a very long time.

I'm happy. It's nice and warm, the cuffs work well in an unheated machine shop where you want to stay warm but Big coats/ jackets are a suck-your-arm-into-the-spinning-machine HAZARD.
Rugged material, will last if you take care of it.
Lovely price, thick material to keep the wind out, while allowing flexibility. Im 5'7 and i initially got a medium to try and found it way too big.
