I would love this coat, but....

the sleeves seem really long, and I've never had that be a problem with a coat before. I could just hem them, but there is a pocket right down by the wrist that doesn't leave much space to do so.
Also, the majority fabric is shiny... like in a silky polyester kind of way. It doesn't really show like that in the photos, so I was a bit surprised when I got the coat. I think it could grow on me, but I when I get a coat, I want to just love it right away!
I love backcountry... so I'm going to exchange this coat for another one. If this coat just had different fabric and shorter sleeves, I would definitely keep it; everything else about it seems great.
