Beautifully designed coat. Cut large in the body to go over cold weather layers, though pretty 'normal' length in the arms. I'm 5'6" and 40 chest and it's an entirely appropriate fit for the intended purpose. Loaded with superb features such as 4 great pockets, a massive hood (but with a very good range of adjustment to be worn over a bare head or a helmet). Good robust material, won't damage easily. The first jacket to arrive was damaged but FU&K were superb at exchanging it by return and refunding my postage. The second jacket works just fine, though is well-worn, with various scuff marks and tired velcro fastenings at the cuff. The seam tape has come adrift near the hem in one place (not vital), but at the price, it's still good value. I reckon I'll get at least a year of regular hill use out of it, compared to three years from a brand-new one, but it's much less than a third the price of a similarly specced new one, so it's still really good value.
