Feels like velvet!
I just received this jacket today and couldn't be happier! I am short, chubby, and apparently have shorter than average arms. I may actually be an Oompaloompa. This is not the first coat or jacket I've purchased from Overland, and it certainly won't be the last, but I have a difficult time with fit. I have learned the jackets without a waistband, that flair a little at the hips, look best on me. I also need cuffs that roll back, like on the Sabrina, due to Oompaloompa arms. This jacket looks great on me! I don't look chubby in it at all, which is a freakin' miracle. The suede is so soft it does not feel like suede. It feels like fine velvet! Very lightweight, which is good as I live in the South. I am 5'3", 145 lbs. for reference. (I always appreciate when other folks state this info so I can gauge fit.)
