I ordered the 12 in a petite and it fit beautifully! I know I will wear it for years to come! I actually don't mind the rain as much anymore now that I have this lovely coat! I was worried from another review that this trench would be too long, but the petite was great for me and I am only 5'2"!
Gabardine Trench Coat (For Women) By So So from Fenton, Michigan on 11/10/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Stylish Describe Yourself: Stylish Chest Size: Feels true to size Length: Feels true to length Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Was exactly what I had been looking for, with the exception of no back kick pleat. Not a big deal, just nice when getting in and out of a SUV type automobile.
Good choice if you're tall! By Tall and Lanky from Naperville, IL on 11/08/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Versatile Best Uses: Casual Wear, Going Out, Office, Office Meetings, Travel Describe Yourself: Classic, Comfort-oriented, Stylish Chest Size: Feels true to size Length: Feels true to length Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This coat fits just like the Johnathan Michael camel-hair coat (which I also purchased). The sleeves are just long enough for the taller girl (I'm 5'11'') and could even be lengthened a bit by a good tailor. The position of the belt also just squeaks by for the taller frame. The color is a true khaki, which makes it a great neutral that goes with everything. The overall length of the coat might be too much for the shorter girls. Fabric is weighty and durable.
As for styling, it leaves a little to be desired. I was looking for a classic trench coat, with all the bells and whistles, but because I can never find one that fits, I tried this. I see it as more of an "overcoat with trench coat-like styling" rather than as a classic trench coat. It is a weightier fabric than a classic trench and is missing some of the classic features, like a kick-pleat, the flap of fabric across the back shoulders, metal grommets and buckles, etc. Also, the pockets are a little oddly placed (to far toward center).
Even so, the coat really is of very good quality with a color and a fit that is long enough.
Nice style-good fit-ugly color-not warm By Mountain river runner from Santa Fe, NM on 11/08/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Nice fabric Describe Yourself: Comfort-oriented, Practical, Stylish Chest Size: Feels true to size Length: Feels true to length Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I'm not sure I'll keep it because the color is drab and it's not as warm as a wool long coat should be.

Way too long in lenght, and in the sleeves. The shoulders were a little bigger than they should have been. Tall folks this classic trench is for you!

Excellent product. Very high quality By Danni from St. Charles MO on 08/13/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Breathable, Comfortable, Durable, Versatile, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Going Out, Office, Office Meetings, Travel Describe Yourself: Classic, Comfort-oriented, High-end shopper, Practical, Stylish, Trendy Chest Size: Feels true to size Length: Feels true to length Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Excellent product. Was looking for a wool gabardine to replace lost one & this tops it. Fit and detail are exceptional. Ordered both black & taupe coats. Can be worn Autumn, Winter & early Spring in this climate zone. And with the discount is a coat not to be passed up. This is a winner with an excellent price.
