Your experience is surprising to me. Did you order the Long or Regular? If the Regular, that may be the answer. As far as material, works great for me in Southern California weather. The jacket is so lightweight, I’m somewhat surprised by the review. Never noticed an issue with belt loops or back pockets either. I’ve actually gotten complimented on the jacket by a business associate, who wanted to know where to get it
Reality is clothing fits some and not others. It’s too bad it didn’t work out for you. The good thing is that their customer service, in my experience, has been top notch.

Air doesn't go through and too much fabric exists between your skin and outside air. Pants have problems too. The belt loops are too wide made for jean size belts. Dress belts are something 1 to 1 1/4 inch. Jean belts are like 1 1/2 inch. if I wear dress belts, it makes a large gap in the belt loops, which are quite thick and frumpy looking too. Terrible style. Also the back pockets look like it s a bit open all the time.
I had a $200 off coupon from Brooks Brothers and ordered this one.

I guess the washable nature of the fabric at Bluffworks is still the best quality. I just wish it was better cut.
