Grindstone Work Jacket - 2024 Reviews

Best kept secret in the Sitka line.

If Sitka spent just a fraction of the time marketing the Grindstone jacket as they do their hunting line they wouldn’t be able to keep them in stock. This is by far the warmest light jacket I have ever owned. As a matter of fact I actually bought another one not long after I got the first one just so I could put it up in case they were to discontinue the line.

Finally are coat you can depend on

Looked for a long time for a warm, wind proof and tough work ranch coat. This thing delivers. Can handle everything from working on fence to filling feeders.

A gift for son- in-law

A gift for son- in-law a rancher. He loves the design and wind stop abilities of this work jacket. Combined with the vest it works great in the Montana weather.

Well made jacket

Really long on the arms

Grindstone work jacket

Jacket is very well made, good material and feels better to wear than other jackets in its class, however this jacket like other sitka products I’ve tried on, it runs small on me. I ordered an XL and the jacket was tight in the chest and short in the arms when I extend my arms so I returned it and got the correct size. I’m an XL in every other brand but in sitka I’m a XXL.

I bought the 2xl and

I bought the 2xl and I should have tried it on first lol all of my shirts are 2xl and perfect fit. Its my bad for not trying it on. Other than that the only thing I would wish for out of this jacket would be a removable hood.

Great piece!

Great coat and exactly what I was looking for during the early WA waterfowl season!

Good Quality

Seems to be of good quality so far and looking forward to breaking it in.

My son loved it, but it is too big and I have to return it

Great everyday work jacket!

Sitka gear never disappoints! It is quality gear that always fits great and is durable.

Best jacket.

Hands down my favorite jacket from Sitka. Would love a blaze orange upper with tan lower for upland hunting.

Great Jacket

Bought this jacket for an Alaska fishing trip. Was very impressed with how it handles wind, rain and cold.

Perfect for anyone working around

Perfect for anyone working around thick brush

Great Jacket! Highly Recommend

98 degrees in Denver today so no extensive use but jacket looks to be exactly as advertised. Needed a medium exertion work jacket. Fabric feels sturdy. Not as stiff as carhart (and probably slightly less rip resistant) but more comfortable, warmer, and lighter. Like the pocket setup and hood size. Nice enough looking to be a good everyday coat as well.

Warm

Super durable and very warm.

Great Jacket

very dense material does not wear out

Very Warm! Slightly Big

Very nice jacket that is super warm yet lightweight. I found it was a little bit big on me. Pockets are handy. Comfy inside material.

Great work jacket

Fit true to size and very warm but still durable.

Grindstone jacket

This jacket is great. Fits true to size and is stylish.

Finally durable material

Though I haven’t had a chance to put it through the paces, I am impressed with the material and build of the jacket. Seems like a durable material, and like it will be warm, especially if you are moving around. Ordered a medium, fits a bit big, but will be great for layering.

Nice Warm Jacket

I really like the jacket except for the hood. I wish there was a collar for the hood because it always rides at the back of my head instead of hanging down. The hood is also too large; it would be nice to have a way to pull it off of my face.

Love this jacket !

I work in highrise construction. This winter was brutally cold. I needed a new work jacket to replace my old one that I have used for several years. I came to realize that the standard work clothing manufacturers, no longer make clothing for people that actually work. During my search I came up with the Grindstone work jacket. I wish I found it years ago. Especially after this winter. I absolutely love this jacket for work but it could easily do double duty for personal use outside of work. Sitka thought of everything. This is the perfect cold weather work jacket. Thank you very much !! Hard to believe that you can’t find actual work clothing anymore

BEST JACKET

Warm, comfortable, and waterproof. Love this jacket

My husbands favorite jacket!

Great material my grandfather loves

Great material my grandfather loves it and it keeps him warm.

Awesome jacket

It’s the best jacket I’ve worn for work i have started sweating a couple days being 30 and just wearing this no other baselayers

Great chore/daily work coat

This coat is so well thought out. The inner sleeves keep wind out between your coat and sleeves. Hood is form fitted. Shell keeps wind and rain off and the fill is perfect for cold days.

Good quality jacket

I really like the jacket.

I really like the jacket. Outer material seems durable & the wind protection is excellent. I wish it had a little more insulation for colder days.

Awsome

Work coat

Xl fits good very durable coat

The jacket is great. It

The jacket is great. It is exactly what I needed for cool and windy spring days on my tractor, in the field and running errands. I like the long cut in the back and the range of motion that is similar to other outdoor brand jackets I own. (Think Patagonia & Marmot) The fit is great. I am 5'10" and 190. Been wearing with a 150wt wool base layer and if really cold, adding other mid-layer underneath. Plenty of room. The only reason I have listed it as a 4 and not a 5 is that the hood and the neck tunnel are a disaster! The hood should be removable or at the very least, be able to be tucked away. Because it lacks this feature, the neck tunnel and zipper are always in the way and rather annoying! Big hit on an otherwise great work coat. The Cordura fabric is AMAZING!

Great jacket, highly recommend.

The perfect work jacket

The perfect work jacket that’s what it should be name. Sitka is the greatest invention for the outdoor person

Perfect work jacket

The heavy duty material really stands up to working around heavy equipment. Grease and dirt aren't an issue, it washes up great. Perfect for working outdoors in Alaska. Just a great all around work jacket.

Grindstone

Top shelf product!

Toughest warmest coat ever! You

Toughest warmest coat ever! You could wrestle a polar bear and win with this coat. However, I like the vertical zip chest pockets more than the current.

Nice jacket for work or

Nice jacket for work or play. Love everything about it. Only complaint is the hood can get in the way when not in use. Would buy again.

Fitment

The Grindstone jacket is true to size. Material is stiff like Carhartt. Not a huge fan of it because it's thin. Most likely have to wear a hoodie underneath fir a little warmth.

Great coat. . . . . But

I love the coat. The fit is perfect. It does exactly what the description says. My only compliant is that the fabric is noisy, maybe it will soften over time.

Great Jacket!

The jacket fits great, is lightweight and comfortable. It sheds light rain and breaks the wind as advertised. The only negative is how the bill on the hood pokes the back of your head and when pulled over hangs so far over the front of your face it’s hard to see. However, I just tuck it over a bit inside itself when it’s not needed to keep it from being a nuisance.

Grindstone

Excellent work jacket. Excellent jacket in general. Would love more in other colors!

Great jacket

Fits great and is warm
