You're right, I guess it is called the woodland. It looks nearly identical to the fireman's. Either way, I won't miss it this time 'round.

For anybody who's saw the Firmeans jacket, was it as thick/warm as the oilcloth field jacket or was it a thin/unlined spring weight?

I don't have a problem getting the shirts tailored, but taking in the sleeves is going to be too much- might as well just sell them.
I know I could just try it, but then I can't resell them being new & with tags.

An answer would be greatly appreciated

I own like 7 of them. They basically don't shrink at all in thr wash. Ive done both dryer and hang dry with almost no difference. If they don't fit you well basically Your best bet is tailoring. Hope this helps

I own that, too. It's unlined. Feels more like a warmer weather raincoat.

Have they stopped doing 30% off $150+ or whatever amount it was they used to do? I mean as a promotional, sale kind of thing.

I think it was 20% off $175 purchases (excl. collab items). They seem to have to these just 2x a year

I asked about it and was told it will be offered in October. If you want to pre-order it, it's the Suede Fleece Workwear Cardigan (#31364). It's being offered in "Heather Onyx." The price will be $98.

I think it may be in stores sooner than that. I stopped by the local J. Crew earlier today and saw that cardigan (or one that is very similar to it). The only reason it caught my attention was the really high neck line.

i think the one you're talking about is the dark charcoal cardigan but it didnt have buttons on the pockets.
