What owners report about Kamakura jackets & outerwear
Independent coverage of Kamakura's jackets is thin: the line is a recent extension of a company known for its shirts, and most owner discussion still concerns those. The one in-depth write-up, a two-part comparison by a veteran ivy-style blogger (who disclosed the jacket was supplied by the brand), rated the corduroy ivy jacket the best-executed of four very similar jackets he owns — correct details, cloth he judged better than the others, a sleeve lining fine enough he did not notice it, and made in Japan. He and several of his readers were initially confused by the published chest measurement, which reads very large for the labeled size, though ordering his usual size gave him what he called a perfect fit.
- Strengths
- The one detailed independent review found the construction, details, and cloth quality above directly comparable ivy-style jackets, consistent with the company's shirtmaking reputation.
- Watch out for
- There is very little independent owner history on the jackets yet — one brand-supplied editorial review plus reports of confusing size-chart measurements make up most of the public record.
- Sizing
- Published chest measurements read large for the labeled size and have confused buyers; the detailed reviewer (normally a 38R/medium) ordered his usual M off the site's measurements and reported a perfect fit, so go by your usual size or ask the brand.
