Both my girls love their new winter coats. We really like the design and length--just past the hips really keeps them warm on cold days. The only difficulty they've had is that their clothing sleeves catch on the liner making it a bit hard to get the coat on without losing their sleeves up inside the coat. Other than that, all parties are very happy with the purchase.
This coat was great! The fabric is so nice. I believe it will repel well, even dirt. On a little boy this is important. It is lightweight enough to be comfortable but he says it is very warm.
Overall, a good jacket for the money. With the liner and jacket it is also very warm. However, with the liner in the jacket, my daughter (who is also tall and very thin) can't wear anything thick under the jacket - just a thin shirt. If she is wearing a sweatshirt to school, we either have to take the liner out or wear a different jacket. It somewhat defeats the purpose of the "system" jacket. Made well though, and looks great on.
