RAF Womens Hooded Sheepskin Leather Jacket

I just bought my second one. Not because the first one wore out. Because my teenage daughter kept stealing it. She'd take it to school, to hang out with friends, to the mall. I got tired of fighting her for it so I ordered another one. Now we match. The jacket is that good. Warm, stylish, real sheepskin, functional hood. Worth buying twice. Actually worth buying once but here we are.

I accidentally left this jacket in the car overnight when it was minus twenty outside. Put it on the next morning expecting it to be freezing cold against my skin. The shearling warmed up within seconds. I don't understand the physics of that but I'm grateful. The sheepskin leather didn't crack or stiffen in the cold. The zipper worked perfectly. This jacket laughs at Canadian winter.

Gifted this to my sister who is impossible to shop for. She's picky about fabrics, picky about fit, picky about everything. She opened it, tried it on, and didn't take it off for the rest of the day. She said the shearling is the softest thing she's ever felt against her skin. The hood actually covers her head without messing up her hair. The brown leather matches her boots perfectly. I have officially won Christmas.

I ordered this jacket after weeks of research and reading reviews. I'm happy to report it lives up to the praise. The sheepskin leather is the real thing. The shearling lining is thick and soft. The hood actually functions as a hood should. It fits true to size with room for a chunky sweater underneath. No weird chemical smells. No loose threads. Just a solid, beautiful, warm jacket. Exactly what I was hoping for.

I'm a dog walker. I'm outside in every kind of weather for hours at a time. This jacket has become my uniform. The sheepskin handles light rain, the shearling keeps me warm at 6am when the sun hasn't come up yet, and the three outside pockets hold treats, waste bags, my phone, and an extra leash. The hood stays on when I'm bending down to clip a leash. This jacket works as hard as I do.

I wore this jacket on a flight from New York to London. Usually airplane cabins are either freezing or stuffy and nothing helps. This jacket somehow regulated my temperature perfectly. I didn't overheat, I didn't freeze. The hood made a great pillow when I balled it up against the window. The inside pocket held my passport and boarding pass securely. Arrived looking fresh and not like I'd been crumpled in a seat for seven hours.

The zipper on this jacket deserves its own five star review. It's heavy, metal, and glides like butter. Never once has it caught on the shearling lining or snagged on the leather. You know how some jackets you have to wrestle with the zipper every single time? This is the opposite of that. Smooth every time. Even with gloves on. Small detail but it makes a huge difference when you're standing in the cold trying to close your jacket.

I'm 5'2" and often drown in winter coats. This jacket in a small fits me perfectly. The sleeves hit right at my wrist, not halfway down my fingers. The body is shaped without being tight. The hood doesn't look disproportionately huge on my frame. Finally a winter jacket designed for people who aren't six feet tall. The shearling lining means I don't need five layers underneath.

I bought this jacket for myself after a promotion. Felt like a proper reward. The sheepskin leather has this depth to it that you can't get from synthetic materials. The shearling hood adds drama in the best way. I wore it to a work dinner and my boss asked where I got it. I told her and she wrote it down. The inside pocket is perfect for business cards. Professional warmth is how I'd describe it.

I get cold easily. Like, unreasonably cold. My friends make fun of me in winter. I wore this jacket to an outdoor pub and for the first time ever I was the one who didn't want to go inside. The shearling lining traps heat without making you sweat. The hood actually blocks wind from hitting your ears. I felt invincible. My friends have stopped making fun of me because three of them have now ordered the same jacket.
