The only experience I've had with Lands End sport coats recently is a loden corduroy sport jacket purchased just a bit more than a year ago. I'm not sure it is appropriate to differentiate between brands, based on the lack of garment flexibility caused by the fusing processes applied to the jacket but, my LE corduroy jacket has remained stiff as a darn board...seems almost bulletproof...and I mean that in the worst way. I suspect the manufacturer had to cook down more that one horse carcass to come up with the glue needed to achieve the noted effect! The jacket does not wear comfortably and it looks as bad as it feels, while on. On the hanger, it doesn't look bad and, on the plus side, it was cheap but, given the fit and functionality of the coat, should have been cheaper.
