This coat looks great on; is a good spring weight; dresses up jeans and slacks and is washable. It's been washed and hung to dry and will require very little ironing. It's a good buy at $99 -- it is more at Macy's.

This is an amazing coat, and amazon was offering it for a great price (79) when I bought it. It poofs out a bit after the belt and looks great with pants and skirts. My only hiccup about it is that the belt doesn't really hold that well, the fabric in it slips out of the metal part and I'm always tightening it. It should probably be made of different material than the coat itself, it also takes some effort to make sure the belt isn't folded over itself.

This coat is well made, sturdy,fashionable and a great price at $59. Beware of the belt however, it was not designed to stay in place! I'm curious how the model even managed to keep it attached for the photograph! I was at a loss as to what to do with it (coming from a hot climate and not used to coats) until I saw ladies just knotting the belt in front and letting the buckle hang loose. That works! Wide-hipped ladies please note that the skirt part does "poof" out at the hips and can make you looker bigger than normal.

Almost every time I wear this coat, someone comments on how much they like it.
I think I like other coats I have better, though. I found some similar ones at Wal-Mart with better belts, but no one's ever told me they liked the two I got there. If I could redo it, I probably still would've bought this one (and Wal-Mart didn't have a white one).
London Fog is a nice brand. My father has talked of a leather, London Fog coat his father used to have, and it has lasted a very long time. I got a London Fog trenchcoat in the past that I liked - it had smaller buttons, was longer, and had a removable liner (unlike this one) - but it didn't really have much style and this one looks a little better. This one tends to show off curves (but I wonder if it shows of too much of my butt), and has a lot of fabric below the waist that I find interesting.

The belt buckle is heavy, and the belt is wide and thin and can fold up from gravity. To wear the belt, I have to wrap it around my waist twice, but I've been keeping it tied around the back, instead.

The buttons are very large, and I didn't notice that before I bought it. It's a little difficult pushing the buttons into the button holes. I don't button up most coats, though, so it isn't that much of a problem. What may be, is how some things will catch a button. I recently found one of the buttons dangerously loose, probably from a seatbelt or something catching onto it too many times.

This is a great trench! The fit is amazing! You can wear it casual or for business. I LOVE it!! Can't beat the $$$

This is a nice-looking coat, well made, fit nicely over my shoulders, chest, and hips in a size XL. I found the waist to be a bit too wide, thus making the coat look baggy when I attempted to tie the belt around. The cuffed sleeves, silver tone buttons, and large buckle make the coat look modern and chic. I see that many coats, such as this one, have four pleats in the skirt area, two in the back and two in the front, giving it a distintive A-line that is flattering, but just a bit too ballooned for my taste. The pearl tone is more like a silvery light gray color, and it's perfect for my taste. It has kept me warm on chilly Spring and late Summer nights here in CO. I'm certain I will get much more use out of it in autumn. Overall, I'm satisfied with the quality workmanship, fabric, details, and stitching. I usually have trouble finding attire that fits perfectly around my waist, so I anticipated this problem with the coat as well. Nonethless, I consider this trench coat a good buy.
