Lands' End Canvas - Page 225

I purchased the Lands End Oilcloth jacket in size S. Came in the mail today. Gonna have return it. This is why when you want something, save up for it. Ill get the bedale ive been lusting over. this has these extra flaps in the back that are obviously intended for mobility. However, while the jacket fits me perfectly in shoulders, chest, and length, it is pulling along the back and making those flaps/vents pull outward. So the medium was too big, and the small was too small in 1 spot. Oh well, took a chance for $70 after the 40% one item promo. But not worth 70 if it doesnt fit right. 

Plus, it is not even close in feel of quality in comparison to Barbour as some have pointed out. The zipper and stitching were solid, but the jacket feels...flimsy. Not as solid as similar styled jackets from other brands (filson, barbour, belstaff, etc). And yes, I realize those are premium brands, but this jacket once retailed for 250.

can someone please please please post a picture of them wearing the mariner jacket? i've searched high and low for a photo of someone wearing it but i can't find one. i even chatted with a LEC person and they didn't have one.

I'm returning the Canvas Herringbone pants.  They are extremely skinny below the knee to the point of being tight in the calf.

Bummed as I had high hopes....

Anyone get the herringbone pants and were pleased? I'm looking for a 'skinny' wool pant to begin with, probably gonna grab the grey ones in 33, $42 is a steal with the current code. 

Just wondering if anyone has a pair in 32 or 33 and could measure out the thigh for me, only thing i'm concerned about, and is the waist sizing consistent with the rest of the lec stuff? 

The poplin shirts (and many other shirts) are on sale and I like the look of them, but in the store they tended to be wrinkled and looked like they needed ironing. Can they be worn without ironing, if they're hung up immediately after drying? One of the reviews says you can do this, but I'm skeptical.

Nah they get obnoxiously wrinkled if not ironed, I hardly wear any of the poplin shirts anymore out of sheer laziness.

I just got hooded cardigan (tide-pool heather in small) and it is great. I had to size down for a better fit (5'10, 32" waist and 39" chest) and it fits great with a tee/light button-down under it. There is one color left in stock I think, but it's worth a shot; I certainly like it a lot, especially the weave of the fabric.

Exit question: Can they possibly top last season's men's pajama onesy w/ the butt flap?

Yeah man, I am not a fan of those either. I don't think anything will top the butt flap ha-ha. It seems like some simple items keep getting more expensive. I mean, they are charging $30 for a graphic tee when L.L.Bean is making some (and all their stuff ships free) for $34.95 - granted, there are only two options, but still, I can't ignore that. :-/

The printed poplin shirts is only thing I would consider buying right now.
