“They really should include a picture of the back! The colour is lush. A Reddy, grey.... its hard to explain but the first pic kinda does it justice. I had to get some adjustments made by a seamstress. I am 5'10" but the size of my coat was for someone 6'4" . I contacted the company & they found a shorter one for me to exchange but due to the size & weight it would cost the same to post back as to have it adjusted (£16) so I went with that option. I think if you get this coat matched to your height it will be just below the knee which is what I adjusted mine to (it was ankle length). Mine came with an extra detail of a velcro collar clasp which I think is practical. However the material is sooo stiff it will stand by itself if turned up. A good thing to note is if you are larger of waist there is a good 4-8 inches of material that can be let out at the back. It would need to do done by a seamstress. Overall pleased, really good condition. A bargain for 100% wool!”

“I was actually introduced to this coat through the film Awaydays, where the character Elvis wears this very coat and I just thought how cool that looks. Also these coats were very popular with many Post-Punk and Gothic bands during the late 70's and 80's”
