"Design, fabric, fit - all excellent!"

Bottom Line

If you can ensure the correct sizing, this coat might be worth considering for its design and comfort. However, the inconsistency in sizing and sleeve length is a major drawback. We recommend checking the sizing carefully and possibly ordering a size up to compensate for the short sleeves. If you opt for the suspenders beware that the buckle tenders to break.
