FREE SOLDIER Men's Outdoor Waterproof Soft Shell Hooded Military Tactical Jacket

I know when it comes to jackets it’s easy to go with a brand that you know. I took a chance with this one and now I’m glad that I did! I went with the color black since it can work for both work and personal use. It’s very warm on cool nights and works for the California climate. It’s very comfortable, light, and has a nice slim fit to it. I like the style of it as well, it’s very utilitarian and urban in design. The hood on it is a plus and keeps me dry in inclement weather. Definitely worth the purchase!

I recently purchased the FREE SOLDIER Men's Outdoor Waterproof Soft Shell Hooded Military Tactical Jacket, and overall, I’m quite impressed with its performance. Here’s my breakdown:Pros:Waterproof and Durable: The material does an excellent job repelling rain and light snow. I’ve worn it in moderately rough weather, and it held up beautifully.Warm and Comfortable: The soft fleece lining provides great insulation without feeling bulky. It’s perfect for cool to cold temperatures.Ample Storage: The numerous pockets (both interior and exterior) are a game-changer for keeping essentials like phones, wallets, and small tools secure and accessible.Stylish and Functional Design: The jacket strikes a great balance between tactical utility and casual wear, making it versatile for outdoor adventures and daily use.Cons:Breathability Could Be Better: While it’s great for keeping warm, the jacket tends to feel a bit stuffy during high-intensity activities. Ventilation zippers help, but they’re not a complete fix.Fit and Sizing: The fit runs slightly small, especially in the shoulder area. I’d recommend sizing up if you plan to layer underneath.Final Thoughts:This jacket is a solid choice for outdoor enthusiasts or anyone needing reliable protection against the elements. It’s durable, well-made, and packed with features. The few minor drawbacks don’t outweigh the quality and value it offers.Would I recommend it? Absolutely—but keep sizing and activity level in mind when deciding if it’s the perfect fit for you.

Ordered a 3xl and it wouldn't fit. Returned it and ordered a 4xl. I have a 54" chest, and usually wear 2xl shirts and jackets. The 4xl fit, and that's when I realized the label said 3xl. So I think the first jacket I received was an xl or a 2xl, not the 3xl that I ordered. Anyway, putting that aside, it's a great jacket. I use it on my motorcycle. It's wind proof for sure. plenty warm down to 45F. Haven't tested it in the rain yet. I love that the cuffs can be tightened so they don't scoop wind. All the pockets are handy. If this jacket support CE type motorcycle impact armor it would be an awesome motorcycle jacket! Unfortunately it doesn't, and that's not how its marketed either, that's just how I'm using it. The underarm vents make it fine up to 70F. I bought it slightly loose so that I can put a vest and a liner underneath if I need to, but it doesn't flap around in the wind even though it's not tight. It feels quality and strong. The zippers work easily with my gloves on. When I'm not using it, it can be folded/squished pretty tight and doesn't take up as much room in my saddlebag as an armored motorcycle jacket would. So I guess the lack of armor is a pro and a con if you look at it that way. Anyway, I like it and i think it looks good. Love that the hood rolls up and velcros in place so it doesn't flap around in the wind. I wish they had the 3xl in the black and gray, but I had to settle for solid gray. Took off 1 star for the mis-sized orders, but if I ignore that it's a 5 star product for sure!

This field coat is a great buy: it is nicely crafted, is very warm, water proof, has a detachable hood, and has loads of pockets to hold all of your stuff. I brought a 4x and love the fit. It's not bulky or heavy, but warm enough to withstand chilly wind and drenching rain. I get hot fast wearing a lot of coats, so I usually just wear a long sleeve t shirt underneath this and I am comfortable. Well worth the money.

Not sure about the "waterproof," yet (no rain, but the material LOOKS like it will do the job and does not appear to be "rubbery" like some rain jackets). Looks and fit are subjective, but I am VERY happy with this product. I really like the looks, the fit, and the placement and depth of the pockets. There are pockets on the sleeves that I may never use, as well as vents for aeration, but I don't know, yet. I also like the hood with a bit of a visor to help reduce water on the face. You might consider one size larger than normal, only for movement or layering. I do like mine a lot.
