Comments about Great Coat - Norway Wool:

Colour: yup.. it's a grayish-black alright. nothing special about that.

Liner: half-lined only. sorry folks, it only lines your chest. also, it's just cotton. it's mildly comfortable, but I was hoping for something better.

Size: it's about 44 inches long. the sleeves are a fairly proper length- about 22 inches long. the chest was a 38 for me, which was fit me fine.

overall assessment: decent coat, but the lack of a silk or satin, or some other fine material liner made me return it. not being fully-lined was another strike against it. I can't quite say I would recommend this coat. it has a good fit for people with a thin build, but other than that, it doesn't have much to it.

it also has an inner pocket.. thought I'd mention that.

Comments about Great Coat - Norway Wool:

I liked that the Extra Small fits me perfectly, and that it folds up to button up my neck when it gets cold. XS fit me, I'm 5'4", 120.

The thing is, as soon as I got it, I put it on and had an allergic reaction to the mold spores--it had obviously been stored in a humid basement somewhere. I think that the company should compensate me for dry cleaning ($20).

Other than that, the coat looks great (on women!)...

Comments about Great Coat - Norway Wool:

It is a cool coat. The small is still a little big on me, but I am 5'6" and 130 lb. I plan to get it altered. It looks great, in excellent condition-- I would not have know it was used! Thick material.

Very useful for a seventeen-year-old six foot tall boy to wear to school in the winter and feel like he has a cool style, with maybe a little drama.
