Beautifully cut and designed, the coat runs a tiny bit smaller, in the Italian fashion, than a similarly sized American coat. A bit dressier, too, than a similar American coat. The fabric really does what it says: someone spilled hot tea on me the first day I wore it and the tea just beaded up and brushed off, leaving no mark. Pockets are a bit high, and are not on-seam (slash) -- but this is a minor inconvenience. Haven't tested the coat in freezing weather yet, but it's doing fine so far as low as 40 degrees F. Basically, an extremely well made product and a huge bargain at Sierra. Wish the style hadn't been named "Husky" though.

It can be perfect for dressy as well as casual. So light-weight, yet high-tech fabric protects you from cold wind and moisture. I wore it to NY on my business trip and it served me well both on relatively warm day and nasty wet day. You would appreciate its light weight while traveling. Looks great with jeans, too, unlike the top coat that's too heavy and dressy. The integrated vest keeps your neck and v-zone cozy when cold wind is blowing at you. Italian design and fabric always impresses me with a piece like this. Highly recommended. Sierra, please keep bringing on unique item like this that we can never find at ubiquitous places like department stores!

Coat is very practical yet conservatively stylish. It could be just a bit more narrow around the shoulders but the size I purchased was all that was available.The Loro Piana Super 120 wool is virtually unmatched in terms of quality drape and feel.
