5.0 out of 5 stars Good value - sizing runs large, May 6, 2010

Received this after much deliberation on what to purchase. Decided on this brand based on price vs features. It's well put together, with good attention to detail.

The Velcro at the wrist does not allow the sleeve to be cinched tightly to keep out wind. It's a minor thing to move it or add another piece of Velcro. The brass zipper is much more smooth than plastic zippers on other coats I have. The included button-in liner makes it great for colder weather, and the fabric itself is heavy enough to keep you comfortable without the liner for chilly spring mornings. Without extra layers, I wouldn't recommend this for frigid weather at all. If I had to make one complaint, it would be that the one upper bellows pocket isn't as large as preferred. Not a deal breaker, but it would be nice to have the ability to put more in.

Regarding the sizing, it does run large. I normally purchase size large in coats. Based on other reviews I almost purchased this in a small, but at the last minute I decided to try a medium and hope for the best. I'm glad I did - a small would have been snug with the liner, and would have been uncomfortable with an added layer. The medium fits me exactly as a Columbia parka sized large. The sleeves are long enough to cover part of my hands when standing normally, and part of the cuff folds out to cover even more if needed. This would make it great when it's cold enough for gloves.

Overall, if you're looking for this style of jacket without spending the money for an authentic military surplus, I highly recommend this one.

The quality of this jacket is actually quite high considering the price. However the sizes run WAY too large and I strongly recommend you purchase TWO full sizes below what is listed. For instance I am usually a Medium and I purchased a Xsmall and it is still a large fit.

For those of you attempting a urban military or milspec./hipster look this is a very clean cut and "fresh" jacket. It is not distressed in anyway shape or form. This is a positive in my book so as each individual can utilize the jacket as a personal canvas.

Over all this jacket is great except for the horrible sizing issue. If not for the sizing problems I would rate this item 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Product - Way Too Large, January 5, 2012

Very well made jacket... great price and it includes the liner, which others offered in this medium don't include. The zipper is heavy duty, and the material is very tough. Make sure you get at least 1 size smaller than usual. I'm a XL so I ordered a Large and it was still too large. I had to get this jacket in a medium to get the right fit. No regrets, excellent jacket for winter and if you remove the liner you can use it any time of year. The sizing issue made me give it only 4 stars.
