The verdict
Fit
Crop denims hit at the natural waist or slightly above; they suit high-waisted bottoms best. Expect a fitted, structured body typical of denim jackets; sizing up one size is common if you prefer a looser fit.
Quality
Good American's denim jackets are reliably constructed with even fading and durable seams. Embroidery quality varies; at this price, expect clean but not artisanal needlework.
Is the price fair?
Mid-market for a denim jacket with embellishment. The embroidery adds novelty cost; otherwise it's a standard denim piece at brand-price markup.
Best for
Shoppers wanting a styled denim jacket for festival season, vacation, or anyone who pairs high-waisted jeans with cropped tops.
Care
Wash denim inside-out in cold water to preserve color; embroidered details may require hand-washing.
What owners report about Good American jackets & outerwear
Independent feedback on this jacket line comes mostly from rental-platform reviewers rather than editorial coverage, and it is positive but thin. On one faux-leather jacket style, reviewers average 4.5 of 5 across 17 reviews, yet 13 of 17 report it running large; the faux-leather blazer averages 5.0 across 18 reviews with a third of reviewers reporting it runs large and none reporting it runs small. Reviewers like the pieces overall; the consistent thread is that the jacket cuts are intentionally oversized and fit big.
- Strengths
- The faux-leather outerwear rates highly with reviewers, averaging 4.5 to 5.0 stars on rental-platform review counts in the teens.
- Watch out for
- Fit consistently skews large across jacket styles, and there is little independent reporting on the jacket line's long-term durability.
- Sizing
- Reviewer fit data skews runs-large — 13 of 17 reviewers of one jacket style said it ran big — so consider sizing down unless you want the full oversized look.
