It's a high quality jacket with a great fleece lining. It always looks wrinkled though, so it is for casual wear only (thus the name barn jacket). I can't tell if the Corduroy collar is Maroon or Brown, but it is somewhere in between and is attractive. The pockets are big enough to put a cell phone into without worrying it will fall out. I am very pleased with my purchase, and I wear this jacket a lot. No strings hanging. Buttons are sewn on real well. Lining is a perfect fit inside. I started out intending to give it four stars, but the more I said about it, the more I realized it deserves a five star rating.
