To each her own - I picked this color over a black(?) jacket when it was available, and love it. The tan is a nice neutral, and burnt orange is much more visible... I also got the light green fulled-wool jacket at closeout prices, and I like it (it is hard to find a green that I don't like though). Most of my pieces happen to be the lovely maroon color though!
