Perfect Winter Coat
I bought this coat after three of my coworkers wouldn’t stop raving about it—and wow, they were absolutely right. This is hands down the warmest, coziest winter coat I’ve ever owned. I live in a cold, windy area and this jacket has kept me comfortable on even the chilliest days.The quality is fantastic—thick, durable material, a smooth zipper, and a hood that actually stays up and protects from wind. The fit is flattering without being bulky, and I love all the little details like the soft inner lining and deep, zippered pockets.I’ve gotten so many compliments since wearing it, and now I’m the one telling my friends to grab one. If you’re debating, take this as your sign. Trust the coworker hype—this coat is the real deal!

Perfectly flattering! Bought as maternity coat, but will keep in closet forever!
LOVE THIS COAT! I'd absolutely recommend, and would buy again in a heartbeat.I am currently 7 months pregnant and bought this coat a month ago, wearing it non-stop since it arrived. It's delightful! I was so skeptical of an affordable garment with so many positive reviews, but I can't imagine a better coat for the price. The bonus is that it's versatile enough to wear through my pregnancy, but stay in my closet permanently.For reference, I am 5'3". Pre-pregnancy, I weighed 150 and wore size M-L shirts with a 36-D bra, and size 10 pants. I am now 7 months pregnant and weigh 175. The size Large fits me as perfectly. Well, as perfectly as any other garment does at this point, even with my big belly! The coat is just constructed in a really intelligent way to look drapey and casual with room for my curvy parts, but still giving me a really long profile that makes me look and feeler taller and slimmer. Plenty of room even still for my chest to get bigger, gain more weight all around, and for my belly to grow. My arm or shoulders are not restricted at all, even when lifting my arms up, driving, lifting or chasing my toddler. I've worn it with bulky sweaters/hoodies underneath, scarves, gloves, the whole winter kit, and it still has room to move and be a human. It's also warm enough that I've worn it with just a t-shirt and leggings underneath and felt toasty warm, and the look or feel of the coat still wasn't too big.Don't be scared off by how much room I'm bragging about! It's not that this size Large is so gigantic, it's just that unlike most other winter coats I've tried, there is actually versatile construction that takes into account the fact that women do have shoulders and arms, and parts of our bodies that are curvier. Even if you were a taller or thinner person, this would drape in a flattering way. There are side panels that unzip all the way up to your hips allowing for a bit more flexibility, and while there is still a panel of fabric holding the the unzipped area together, it's still helpful. There is also a row of snaps on either side of the zipper that can be unsnapped to allow for extra room along your belly and chest without changing the look of the jacket much at all. The pockets are slightly above your hips so there isn't a strange pulling on your hips when your hands/items are in your pockets like in many other coats. There are two huge utility pockets around the waistline that zip up and fit things like your cell phone/small wallet/phone perfectly. See? It's just smart.I do imagine that in a few weeks, I'll have trouble sitting in my car with the coat zipped up, even with the side panels unzipped for that extra bit of room. That's not particularly a problem, though. It will warm up in chilly Kansas City eventually, and I have plenty of room in the coat to wear layers to keep the chill away for the short periods when I may have to move around unzipped when my belly is just so big. For the price, I'd honestly consider buying one size up if I ended up outgrowing the jacket before the baby is born in spring and just donating it when I no longer needed it. If you can only afford one coat and you are just starting your pregnancy, or are already far enough along to have a huge belly, I'd order up a size from your normal measurements just to assure you'd be able to sit down while zipped up without pulling the jacket a little higher on your hips. It might look a bit too big at the beginning, or might not be as flattering post-pregnancy, but not everyone has the luxury of buying multiple specialty items during a pregnancy and your normal non-maternity size might not work as well for you.Bonus- I am usually very allergic to goose and duck down, but the down feathers used in this coat seem to be very clean. I've had no sensitivity to the feathers! It's hard to beat down for warmth, and I'm so glad to have found genuine and clean down for a wildly low price.

This is THE jacket for cold weather!
I live in Northern New England and it's already been very cold and windy. I walk my dog at 7:00 AM and we've already had temperatures in the teens with winds of 25-30 mph. This jacket is the warmest winter wear ever. It is truly windproof, waterproof, and warm. Pockets are fantastic. It's also long and covers well without being a coat. Although it seems to be bulky when putting it on, once on the body, it's lightweight. It's easy to move in the jacket as well, especially picking up after my pup.I wish it had: a drawstring to cinch in the hood when it's really windy and a two-way front zipper. These are small items as the jacket is such high quality that it's worth every penny. Beautiful, too.

YES! A toasty coat that looks good too.
I'm 5'9", 140 lbs, you can see how long and wide a size Medium is on me in the picture. Sizing was great for me, I could have gone to a Large if I wanted a baggier look.Pros:-Super warm. I've worn this in North Dakota and Washington state, in temperatures down to 15 degrees. I've been wearing normal shirts underneath and have been toasty. When we get to sub-zero temps I'll switch to sweaters underneath and expect the coat to be fine.-Different/trendy. I've gotten three compliments from strangers on the coat already. Not sure if you can see but each side has a line of buttons on either side of the zipper which keep the padded sides buttoned down and help achieve the coat's cool look.-Pockets! The two front zip pockets are awesome for keeping my phone, anything big. Just remember to keep them zipped before you bend down. The two normal front pockets underneath those zip pockets are big and room for gloved hands, or for storing, so you have four large pockets total.-The hood. I love the soft, warm hood. It does get blown back if you're in really windy weather, otherwise it's heavy enough to stay on your head.-Moisture doesn't penetrate. I've only worn in a light rain and snow so far though, not sure I'd wear it in a downpour.Cons:-Coat hook strap has already broken. It was sewn on very cheaply, not sure why they would skimp on that when the rest of the coat is great. Now I can only drape it over a chair or use the hood to hang it, it won't stay hung any other way.-Zipper sticks a little at the bottom.
