OMG, this coat is nice. The fur on the hood is removable if you don't like it, and the inner fur(?) is super comfortable to the touch. There's a few decorative pockets that left me wondering, but the two zippered pockets are fully functional DEEP pockets, definitely large enough to hold a phone, a wallet, and maybe even a can of mace at the same time.

Unfortunately, when I put the coat on it felt like someone had wrapped bindings around my upper arms. My shoulders are about 14 to 14-1/2 inches across, and though the coat measures 17, there's not enough room for my shoulders. It was uncomfortable and I couldn't lift my arms over my head without some serious maneuvering and a bit of pain.

I love the coat. I'm going to send back the Large I ordered and try an Extra Large. I wanted a big coat anyway, so I don't mind if it's large on the rest of me as long as my shoulders fit and the wind isn't riding down my neck and back.

I want to start by saying; I love this jacket. You need this jacket. After reading the reviews I went with a large. I'm 5'10" and 150 pounds. It fits a bit large but I think a medium would be too short in the sleeves.

The front of the jacket has some cute stitch detailing and the gold hardware makes it feel a bit more expensive. The hood is very oversized, which I like. There are working cord pulls to cinch the waist and snap buttons are oversized and fasten flatly.

My cons; it's cheaply made-some of the stitching is coming out on one sleeve, the lining is a silk like fabric but made me too hot on humid, rainy day. Speaking of rain-this is not waterproof. I think that is clear in the listing but just a reminder!

This is a great fashion coat. It's worth about what you pay and I expect I will get a couple seasons wear out of it. It has nice lines and makes me appear even taller.

I'm 5'7 1/2 and weigh 157 lbs I ordered a large and it fits snugged in the sleeve and shoulder area I usually wear a medium I'm glad I read the reviews and got a large anywho its a pretty lil jacket and I love it

I got the LC-Black, which has the plaid inside of the hood and the jacket itself is black. The cincher is on the inside of the coat which allows you to give the coat 'curves.' Well put together. Warm enough to wear outside or inside (if you work in a colder environment). Can layer it easily. Length is good. About what you'd expect for a jacket! It has a polyester lining I believe? It's that shiny sort of material for warmth, the outside is thicker fabric. The hood part has a cute plaid pattern. For 5'6" and small frame with the small jacket sizing, it is actually somewhat big on me. Sleeve length goes past my hands. Without cinching it's boxy, so thankfully that's there. If the plaid had lined the whole inside that would have looked cuter, especially to roll sleeves (the sleeves don't look cute rolled with this jacket but won't stay pushed up because of the inner lining material). There are good and bad things about the jacket.
Pros: Perfect warmth, great color, well made, versatile
Cons: Somewhat big for smaller framed people (there is no XS option), black material does attract lint/white fuzzies/eeeverything, sleeves length/sleeve lack of versatility, cincher strings require heavy knotting otherwise knot goes through hole, sometimes zipper snags on inner flap making it difficult and time-consuming to zip up

I typically have to size up because my arms are long but I took a leap of faith and ordered the small. Pleasantly surprises that it fit really well! Super cute, comes right to my hips like I was hoping (I'm 5'8"). Just FYI though, this will not keep you warm. The material is pretty thin and with a close look you can tell it's not super high quality. I love the look though. Definitely recommend!
