Excellent quality coat, I had to return the original coat as it was too big, no quibbles.

The only reason this product gets a four instead of 5 is because I ordered a new and got a used one. The company were however quick to refund me for the difference. The coat was not in perfect condition, and smelled heavily after long time storage. I spent some money on cleaning it, getting some ripped inner lining fixed, tailoring the arm length and exchanging the golden buttons for my selection of civilian looking ones. While not super cheap, I am absolutely in love with the coat that I got. the pride is especially in the back, which unfolds like an accordion thanks to a lot of extra fabric sewn in enabling for gracious movements and good stretch.

What a wonderful coat it's pretty heavy so keeps you warm even on the coldest day, extremely classy if I don't say so myself lots of jealous people asking where I obtained such a item one issue as lots of people think it's a Russian or German coat.

Wonderful for cold weather. Purchased one for a petite woman in XS and shoulders were perfect. Of course will have to tailor sleeve length. Super quality. Massive - Seriously Massive Pockets. They must be 10x12 inchs making it ideal for carrying all manner of concealed items without painting the clothing..wink wink. Looks like it will last 100 years.

Excellent coat - fits very well and is solidly constructed. The items looks as good (if not better) as it does in the photos. It's perhaps worth noting that the coat has a small velcro-fastening neck strap, not entirely visible in the photos, which came as a nice surprise. Perfect winter-wear and pretty stylish too. Service was great - processed, shipped and arrived quickly, well packaged and properly folded. I look forwards to buying more from this site in future. All round excellent service.
