I absolutely love this coat! I am ALWAYS cold so winter is especially hard on me. I have been searching for the perfect coat for some time. I was hesitant to buy this coat due to the reviews about the zipper. It is a 2 way zipper. Those can always be difficult to line up but after just a few minutes of messing with it I found the sweet spot and technique and was able to easily zip it every time afterward. It?s also fair to mention the coat also has buttons and you can forego the zipper all together. But let me tell you about the HOOD! It is warmer than any hat I?ve ever owned! The pockets are cool the have a faux top which makes them look trendy while still have a ?side entry? pocket that is ergonomic and good while wearing gloves. The fur on the hood is easily removable. Last point- it is dog proof! (So far) I purchased two coats last year and both were easily torn by my dogs nails. I was determined to find one that had more durable outer material and this coat has done well so far! I purchased the olive color and love it!

This jacket is cute and warm, but caveat that if you have wider shoulders/longer arms it might not fit well there. The jacket is comfortable on me for standing/walking, but when I go to raise my arms up at 90 degrees or higher it is pretty tight and the sleeves feel short. As I'm not planning on using this jacket for active motions I'm okay keeping it, plus I got it on a killer sale. I haven't had any issues with the zipper yet but I also haven't had the coat for very long. FYI - the fur is detachable (it zips into the hood)!

Great quality

Lovedddd this jacket!!! The only thing I?m disappointed about is that I bought it a week ago for $60 and now it?s down to $44 :((

This jacket is not flattering. Seems to be cheaply made. Zipper is defective.

This jacket is warm, affordable AND attractive. It's heavy, but not bulky. I purchased a small and it's true to size. If you want to layer I suggest sizing up. Unlike other reviewers, I haven't experienced much trouble with the zipper. It is a double zipper, so both zippers need to be perfectly lined up to zip up or else it gets stuck, but that's nothing out of the ordinary. I'm really glad I purchased this jacket. I'm set for next year!

Broken Zipper After Just A Few Wears

Warm and comfortable, but the zipper completely broke after just a few weeks.

This jacket fits perfectly and it feels super warm. I had no issues with the zipper - it was easy for me to zip up and down, and it feels sturdy.

Warm and very cute!

I love the quality of this jacket! It keeps me warm and looks great too. It?s not overly bulky either. Ordered a Large as I usually wear in jackets.

Thanks for the heads up on the zipper! I thought perhaps the one previous reviewer got was defected. Put on and SAME EXACT THING! Couldn't get past the difficulty getting the 2 pieces to connect in order to ZIP .... Aside that the green black combo was cool looking...Not a big fan after all of the Faux Fur...SiMPLE IS BEST for me. I ordered one from REI and I much prefer that one. Has a nice hemline and ample room to move around in, esp in and out of a car. TTS IMO..5'7 135 Medium...although the bottom did pucker out a bit...
