      Comments about Boden Women Military Jacket:

      I bought the green jacket on sale and am very happy that I did. The finish is very good, although I agree that sleeves could be narrower/bit shorter. I look so good in it I am keeping it, wide sleeves or not.

      Comments about Boden Women Military Jacket:

      Bought this jacket in blue in the sale and I love it! The colour is slightly darker than the picture and the red velvet partial lining is stunning! My only slight complaint is that it isn't a very big size 10, so I wouldn't be able to get a thick jumper underneath and do it up across the bust which is why I haven't given it 5 stars. I'm going to keep it though as it is so lovely and the fabric is thick and feels beautiful.

      Bought this in the sale in army green in a 14 and love it. Am 5ft 7 so as other reviewers have mentioned, it would be perfect if an inch or two longer. Very well made though and lovely colour, true to size and a bargain at the sale price, very pleased.

        I'm 5'2" and this is the perfect fit for me. I'm a size 12 and, as with all Boden jackets, it's true to size. The sleeves are a fraction too long, but maybe my arms are just a fraction too short?

          This jacket is my best Boden buy! It's lovely to wear and looks great - no fussy detailing, and I love the contrasting lining. The sleeves fit just right, but I have long arms. And it is also on the shorter side, but that's great as it doesn't swamp me (I'm 5'3").

            I am 5ft2" and I bought the size 16 and it fits perfectly, arm's length is perfect for me, it also sits at a perfect length, quite heavy so kept me lovely and warm when I stayed in town for a few nights it was smart and practical and I brighten it up with a fancy scarf, love the attention to detail with the lining and velvet, I have been looking for ages for the perfect all rounder jacket, first class.

              This jacket is lovely on. I bought it in the blue withe the red velvet lining and it looks great with a pair of jeans. I got the 14 which is my size but is just a fit.

              I could not wait to get this jacket in grey herringbone [...]. I am generally a 10 in jackets but trawling through the reviews I settled on an 8. I would say that it is an inch too short even for my 5'1" frame as it only just comes to the top of my low rise jeans. Sitting down you would see what's underneath.On the plus side I can't believe the quality of the fabric and inside detail featuring my favourite colours dark mustard & purple!!The fit for everything else is great.This jacket will be well-loved and worn this winter x

                  Comments about Boden Women Military Jacket:

                  Previous reviews mentioned long sleeve length but I thought I would try it anyway. The sleeves were 8inches too long and the detailing on the cuffs meant alterations would have to be done professionally. Material soft and warm. Style suited a petite range which would have been a better fit for me.

                    I wasn't sure which size would fit so I ordered the 8 in the army green and a 10 in the navy. I'm usually a size 10 in most clothes but I tend to find boden big. The size 8 fitted fab a little tight on the bust but I suppose its because I'm a 30 GG. Looks better unfastened anyway. The size 10 was big on shoulders and the arms very baggy, better on the size 8. Lovely fitted shape and heavy material. Sleeves too long but I'm a petite so will have them altered. Couldn't decide which colour as love both but because I'm blonde the army green looks fab and very unusual.
