Really nice looking and Fits to Size
Size: Large, Color: Dark Gray
My husband loves this, it’s a super nice looking coat. It did come pretty wrinkled out of the bag, you need a good steamer.

Solid Purchase
Size: X-Small, Color: Red
This coat delivers strong quality and clean style. The fabric feels sturdy and warm, and it holds its shape well in cold weather. The color stays bright, and the stitching looks secure. The fit is true to size, and the coat layers easily over sweaters without feeling bulky.

This coat is warm, stylish, and very well made. The stitching is clean and the fabric feels durable. It’s perfect for layering and works great with jeans or leggings. I love that it keeps me warm without feeling bulky. Great value for the price.

Good quality
Size: Medium, Color: Navy
I gave this as a Christmas present and he loved it. I was worried when I ordered it that the quality might not be that good, but I worried for nothing.

This is more like a long cardigan sweater, than a coat.
Size: Small, Color: #2 Blackandwhite
This is more like a long cardigan sweater, than a coat. It doesn't have much structure & the pocket placement is too high for a coat. That being said, it's very soft & comfortable. As far as sizing goes, the sleeves run a bit long, but the coat, itself, runs a bit tight. I'm 5'10'' and a small fit me, but I wouldn't be able wear anything very thick under it & I'm thin. It's light & machine washable. I almost kept it to wear as a long sweater, but it looks like a coat ,so I sent it back. If you're very thin with long arms and don't mind the pockets being a bit high, then this could be a very stylish piece for you. Otherwise, I would pass.
