When I saw this black jacket by Marc Ecko Cut & Sew, referred to as the bobber jacket, I was drawn to its military design which is both fashionable and modest. Unfortunately the store only had it in small and it was too small for me. Read on to find out how I managed to get this jacket.

This jacket has two button flap chest pockets and one zip pocket hidden at the chest. It has another two pockets near the waist, giving it a lot of room to put stuff in. Generally I do not like the brand's logo anywhere on the jacket, but Marc Ecko's logo on it is quite small and I am okay with it. Its epaulets at the shoulder combined with the design above the right chest pocket give the jacket a military look, perhaps that of a pilot. The flap that runs through the neck opening adds to the style. Another thing I love about this jacket is the ribbed cuffs and ribbed waistband; hey help make the jacket fit your body better. I also like the shiny lining which gives a classy touch.

This jacket also comes in cigar grey but it is less attractive in my opinion.

The bottom line is that jacket in medium was sold out and they had to ship it to me from their Seattle store. Guess it is just too popular not to have it!

The jacket is warm and goes well with any dark colored jeans. One downside is its back does not have much design. It feels a little empty. Other than that it is perfect for any casual and semi-formal occasion.
