Artcher | Jacket

14 oz denim feels closer to what I wore in high school and I prefer this weight. The stitching and construction look to be top quality. The shoulder gusset’s are a nice addition. This exactly what I was looking for; American grown cotton, milled into denim in Georgia, designed, cut and sewn in Cali. I usually were an XL but sized up for a hoodie or sweater. Seriously this is a heirloom quality denim jacket.

I'm 5'6 and 155lbs with a 42in chest. The Archer jackets are awesome and I have two of them, one in Ocean and the other in Salt both in size small. I bought the Salt first and liked the design so I also got the Ocean. I've had Type 3 jackets in the past, two Levis and one Freenote, I still have the Freenote and while it's a good jacket, the details on the Archer such as the back rear gussets and fit ranks it above all previously jackets that I've owned.

The denim feels soft and sturdy, the gussets allow better arm reach movement and the fit is not too boxy nor too slim. If you have a gut, you may want to size up.

4 Stars because of the size inconsistencies. I originally bought and received my 1st Ocean, however it felt snug, snug to the point that it felt a whole size smaller than the Salt that I already had and they were both sized as smalls. I took measurements of both and the discrepancies were off, chest size was close by a 1/4 in, but sleeve length and back length were off by 2-3 inches. And overall the jacket just fit tight/too snug.

I reached out to customer service and they were helpful enough to measure one of their Oceans (small) that they had in stock that closely measured the Salt that I had. They found one and sent it out to me, that one (the 2nd Ocean) fit better and almost identical to the Salt that I have. If I could give 4.5 stars I would, I understand there may be small discrepancies within the same sizes, but a few inches off is quite odd. However,…

WiesMade Artcher Jacket | Ocean Wash I'm 6 foot, 210 pounds, broad shoulders — the XL fits great. Those gusseted shoulders let you move without any fuss. Love the workwear heritage here: flat-felled seams, brass hardware, Georgia denim. The denim feels broken in when you get it. And more importantly, it's all made in America. I love supporting small family-run businesses — I do the same with my heritage service boots. Good value. Can't wait to see the character this ocean wash develops over time.

Great jacket, made of crazy great denim !!!! I have the washed jacket, and 3 pair of the scout jeans.....will be purchasing more items. I'm 6ft 6 and 250 lbs. The XXL fit great !! Just wonderful denim...... feels like a 21oz Iron heart that is broken in right out of the box. My new favorite Denim....
