I had to send the convertible pants back because they were too long.

I got the Tiger color jacket. Great color.It looks just like the color on a striped tiger. I got a size Large .( I am 5ft 5 in. tall and around 160 lbs ). The major gripe is what a few others have mentioned, and that is the coat needs to be a tad bit longer .It just barely covers the rearend. The warmth factor is wonderfull. I have worn it in 20 degree windy winter days since I have gotten the coat. . If you have short sleeves on under the coat , the sleeves of the coat get alittle cold inside against your skin but the rest of the coat is toasty. when I wear one layer underneath including long sleeves , the coat is perfect. The hood of the jacket is oh so warm also. The wrist / hand elastic openings could have been alittle bit wider to give more room for the wrist part of the gloves to fit in but oh well. The zipper is easy to start and runs very smooth. all in all the coat is a smash!! do not know how it will do when washed but special instructions came with it. I read another site about the washing and it said to use powder soap and a front loading washer. No agitator.

I actually sent these gloves back . They were warm as advertised , but the seams on the inside fingertips were rough . There are fingertip grips on the outside of the glove and the material used is sewn in with the glove and is very rough on the fingertips inside of the glove. Maybe a bigger glove would remedy this but I do not thinks so. I hated to send them back because they were so warm.
