little big

Ranked #2009 - Men's Down Jackets
January 28, 2009
I'm 5' 9" and 170 and this coat was just too big in the chest. Fit well under the arms and was a good length, but it just looked kind of silly and puffy. Sleeves were also a bit long. not a great coat for my body type, i guess.

I had the same problem. The sleeves made me feel like an orangutan. When I let them hang all the way, they covered my hands fully. That much extra made me look rediculous in the arms. They were all bunched up and stuff. I will admit, I am 5'5" 160lbs., but I'm talking about a size small. I don't get it; I can wear a small in any other jacket I've ever tried and they all fit great. Very disappointing because I think the jacket itself is sick.
