Outback Trading CompanyMen's 5020 Bush Ranger Waterproof Breathable Long Sleeve Oilskin Cotton Western Duster Jacket

If you like more room or arm length, go one size larger than what you would normally wear.
Having owned the black version of this jacket for about twenty-years now, I decided to indulge myself with a new, brown version. as I expected from products from 'Outback' I was not, disappointed in the least. While I could have gotten by with the 'X' large, I went with the XX-Large to accommodate additional clothing worn beneath the jacket and also to accommodate my somewhat long arms.Although the material is oil-treated, the material is also very pliable, unlike some cotton-canvas versions of the jacket, which can be somewhat stiff. A draw-string on the inside allows me to cinch (or not) the jacket as I like it. There are also snap adjustments on each sleeve. The construction and quality is excellent. And, you also get a set of replacement snaps - just in case; however, the snaps are quite durable. I have no qualms about buying anything made from the Outback Trading Company (Sheplers). I have several vests and a long 'Duster' in addition to the Bush Ranger jacket.

Top quality product
Very good product. Top quality. Sizes run slightly on the big side. I normally take an XL. But after reading reviews decided to go with a large. Fits me perfect every where. Just a smidge snug across shoulders, but im sure thatll loosen over time. fits perfect in length and in the arms. Based on how well this fits, my normal XL would have been way to big. I can wear a T shirt and sweatshirt under the jacket without it being snug. The coat has about 4" extra across the mid section. I'm 6', 220 lbs. Very happy with it.

Fantastic value, comfortable, easy to clean and looks great.
I have two of their hats and was not entirely sure about spending money on a jacket online. I am completely over that now. I love this jacket and really wish I had bought one last year when I first thought about getting one. My only regret is not getting this jacket sooner. We get really wet winters in Houston sometimes and this one is definitely no an exception. I was out in pouring rain for hours with my jacket and matching hat and was the driest warmest person outside. Fantastic fit, very comfortable, adjustable and obviously very durable and easy to clean. I got a ton of ash on my jacket cleaning out the fire pit and I just had to hose it off and air dry it to look as good as the day it arrived. The care and cleaning instructions sewn into the jacket are also worth the purchase.Not that it's important to me, I have noticed that I get lots of compliments on it too.One of my favorite part of this jacket is the care and cleaning label - it is so 100% accurate and a little humorous.2019-02-27 Update:We have had rain almost every single day since about Yule this winter. I think this is the wettest winter on record for us since record keeping started. Anyway. I wear the jacket daily. I have never had to do anything to keep it clean other than hose it off and air dry it. Even when my kids covered me in wet gooey mud thinking it was soooo funny. (it was)Yesterday really put this jacket to the test. With it so wet out the banks of my pond are super slippery and I was trying to step over my canoe when I just lost footing and did a cartoon-like face-plant into the pond and mud of the bank. I fell so hard I tore my right rotator cuff (F-ing hurts like hell too). My pond is filled with mud and leaves and duck weed right now cause of the weather.I looked like a Texas version of the swamp thing when I stood up. Even the pockets were full of muddy water. I was not happy.Once the pain was under control I took myself to the patio to hose off, I couldn't even get in the house with hosing off I was such a mess. The jacket was a horrid mess, I thought it had to be a goner, but I just started Hosing it off. Filling the pockets with water washing the mud out of the sleeves and the pockets. Took a while but eventually it was completely soaking wet but looked clean. not one drop of soap required. I dried it out and it is just like it was brand spanking new still. I used paper towels and turned the pockets inside out to dry them faster.II am amazed the jacket is absolutely perfect the next day. No smell either, just like it was new and it's over a year old now. I wear it daily with this cold wet weather we have been having.Amazing quality and really what they advertised for a very reasonable price point. The matching hat is also just as reliable. Just hose it off too.

Just what I wanted expected.
Just like the duster, only cut shorter and the sleeves don't cinch down as tight, even though it does have the 2 snaps for 2 positions. I'll have to add another snap or tailor the sleeves if I don't want water running down my arm, reaching up in the wet.Some said the size runs big, but I got just what I expected, based on the Medium duster I bought from the same company. There's enough room to stack layers underneath for the coldest weather, with full freedom of movement. The drawstring waist is great for super-cold or cold and windy conditions.Yeah, if you're looking to wear it over a T-shirt and style it up in town, it's a little big, maybe. But if you want a tough year-round shell that'll last for years, this is it. I'll be wearing mine in ALL weathers, once the mercury drops below 40, adding or subtracting layers, as conditions demand. In summer, it's strictly for downpours or late nights at elevation.The 12-oz fabric is slightly heavier than the 11-oz Filson shelter-cloth all-season raincoat, which I was interested in, but was out of stock for over a month, so I re-thought it. For 1/3 the price, I think I'm getting exactly what I wanted, except it doesn't have a hood, and looks to be a little more rugged than the pricier Filson.For my purposes a heavy, 2-way YKK zipper would be a nice option, but I'm perfectly happy with the snaps, which will be more reliable and it'll be easier to cope with any one of 'em breaking at a time (which is unlikely), unlike a zipper, which either works or doesn't.

Very nice short duster!
Took 3 tries, first one I ordered usual size (XXXL) and it was way too big. 2nd time I ordered the XXL and was sent a long duster that went all the way down to my ankles. But then, Western Outlets came to the rescue and sent me a quality correct size (XXL) and color duster that I have already fallen in love with! I went to Outback Trading and ordered the wool liner to go inside for winter time, still waiting for it, as they did not sell the newer style on here. I also bought the hood from W.O. and I am very happy with my purchases!

This is my second oil skin coat. You can’t beat them in bad weather or for the look.
