Cracking jacket.
I start at 0400 hrs in the morning working in all conditions but with the guarantee of lots of water and manual labour.
This jacket is hard wearing and warm even when worn with only a T shirt underneath, and, although it's not waterproof to begin with, once it's been washed in a Nikwax solution (or similar) it's perfect. The two front lower, "hand warmer", pockets are deep enough to accommodate car keys and such without them falling out (unless you're doing hand stands) and the press stud fastenings on the pockets close the openings enough to ensure you'll still have the means to drive home at the end of the shift.
The jacket also has mesh in the armpit area allowing circulation on even the hottest days, so you'll keep your friends and not be "Mr Stinky".
The two chest pockets have mesh on the front allowing you to hear your mobile when it rings, assuming you put it there as I do. The flap of the pocket folds over enough to keep the pocket, and contents, dry.
Size wise; I'm 5'11" with a 53" chest and slightly longer than average arms (yes I know I'm describing a monkey) and the XL size fits me as if it had been tailored.
A cracking jacket all round and I can't extol it's virtues enough.
Also comes with a spare pack of press studs should the midden hit the spinny thing.
Pros: Fits nicely; 53, Decent pockets., Hard wearing with a strong zip.
Cons: none
Sizing: Feels about right
Would recommend: Yes

Great Jacket / Very Good Value
This is a very good value jacket for the money. I suspect the extremely low price is because it is an older style end of line clearance item however it is still a genuine Dickies jacket and it actually looks better when your wearing it in real life than it does on the photos.
I bought a XXL version of this jacket as my other Dickies jacket is XXL and fits me fine however this Jacket although also made by Dickies is actually bigger in XXL and I had to downsize to XL. The staff at Mean & Green were very helpful and efficient, the exchange to a smaller size was easy and pain free.
Pros: Breathable (but not waterproof), Dickies brand, Handy pockets , Tough cotton construction
Cons: Maybe a little dated in style, Not waterproof, No hood
Would recommend: Yes

TOP PRODUCT
I was trying to find the right quality work wear jacket for my guys and i stumbled upon this product. The ideal colour would of been black, but the compromise on colour in negligible when you consider the saving and the quality that a Tenner can buy you. It just a business decision and no brainer - they look even more 'well smart' when they have our Logo on. Thanks
Pros: Bargain, Well wearing, Top price, Well Made, Strong
Cons: The deal is gonna end - be quick
Sizing: Feels large
Would recommend: Yes

Quality at a Bargain Price
Bought this for use at home and in the garden. Very good quality material, will probably out last me. The sizing is generous,so having a forty inch chest I ordered a medium and there is plenty of room to put a fleece or jumper underneath and still move.
Pros: Good flexibility in movement, Smart looking work wear, Good build quality
Cons: Sleeves are a bit short for me., Silly little pocket on the front
Sizing: Feels large
Would recommend: Yes
