There's a reason The Row's barn jacket looks so good: it's modeled after J.Crew's time-tested classic. We know people who wear them. We've seen glimpses of it in pop culture. Yes, The Row does have crisper corners, but I'd rather save that precision for dressier pieces and go with the right balance of casual vs. precise. J.Crew, Uniqlo, COS, and Mango deliver for me. The Uniqlo jacket has smaller proportions, and the M worked for me better than the S. I sized down with J.Crew to XS.
