So, what happens when you put your fleece lined, pure wool jacket on from Black Yak?  That’s easy, you don’t want to take it off, ever, that’s what happens!

I’ve had this jacket for around 4 years now, and as well as being incredibly warm, it’s also very hard wearing, in fact, I can’t imagine a time that it’ll ever wear out, its think wool outer hasn't even began pilling yet.

It's quite a simple jacket with a sturdy zip, two deep hand warming front pockets and an inside pocket.  There’s also a draw string at the bottom and a lovely deep, fleece lined collar for extra cosiness.  I’ve worn this jacket on the coldest of days with just a t-shirt underneath, it’s that warm!

Although it's a thick jacket, it's also easy to drive in and doesn't feel restrictive when reaching for stuff, although being  6ft 1" with a 49" chest I opted for XXL and I reckon the XL might've been more suitable.  

Having said that, I have no desire to replace it with a smaller version as I like the way it fits and keeps my bum warm!
