I have a long version of this coat that I LOVE... but I wanted something short, sporty but still really warm... and with a hood since I commute to work...and wanted to have something for the weekends.... I read some reviews about the sleeves being short, but did not see this as they fit me fine... this is ridiculously warm, comfy and not bulky... and I love that it covers my backend.... I am a size 4 and purchased the XS and it has enough room for a fleece under or a sweater ... I may have to purchase another one to have when this one wears out as usually when I love something it gets discontinued....
I recieved this as a Christmas gift three years ago during my first year of college. I go to a college where it snows half the year and the average temperature in the winter is below zero. My old coat wasn't cutting it. So, my grandmother bought me this coat. It's great! It's so warm. I can go out in nearly zero weather with just a t-shirt on underneath and still be warm. It also keeps the wind out, which is great for my windy campus. It's also durable. It's been through three winters of being worn every day in the rain, snow. sleet, and cold, as well as three summers of being shoved in a box and it still looks great. The only issue I have is that it's not terribly water resistant. It handles snow just fine, but sleet and rain tend to soak the outside and keep it wet for awhile. It doesn't reach the inner layer, but it does take a little while to dry out when you hang it up.

Fell in love with it when I opened the package. Fell deeper in love when I tried it on. I AM READY FOR THE SNOW!! BRING IT ON!! Order arrived within the week in great condition. Color was true to what I ordered. I'm a senior plus size woman and I ordered one size larger and am very happy.
I've been very happy with this parka. It's comfortable and warm. I've appreciated features such as soft fabric in the pockets, an adjustable hood and comfortable sleeves. I also like the design. It's cut to be more feminine, going in at the waist. I recently wore this on a cold, windy day in DC and I was very toasty.
