Old World Craft, New World Style
This is one beautiful coat. The craftsmanship is superior to 99.99% of anything you find in leather goods these days. The tailor/craftsman even signed the tag inside the coat!
As you can see from the listed weight, this is a substantial item. The sheepskin liner is sheared with plenty of length for warmth, and the external hide is a pebble grain beauty.
I normally wear 44, but based on other reviews I went with a 42. If 42L would have been available, I would have gone that route, but the 42 fits really well. I'm 6'2", 44" chest and 36" waist (actual measurements, not vanity/clothes sizes). I would love another 1/2" in sleeve length, but that's a very minor quibble. Fits perfectly with a t-shirt or regular shirt, might be a bit snug in the chest/shoulders if wearing a sweater. It's so warm, though, I can't imagine layering a sweater.
Incredible how the coat spans formal to casual and looks at home either way. So pleased I snagged one.
