Great Jacket at a Good Price
I purchased this jacket for my adult daughter, who loves it, especially the fact that it has an inner zip-out fleece that can be worn with or without the outer shell, which also can be worn alone. It really is three jackets in one. The sleeves were plenty long enough on the medium (she's tall and has long arms), but the cut was not too bulky (she's also slim).

Pros and Cons
I needed a new snow coat and put this jacket on my Amazon wish list to give my husband an idea of what I wanted. My husband ordered it right off the list for me for Christmas. Some pros and cons:Pros:1. It looks really good on you! The black is rather slimming (as slim as you can look in a winter coat), collar pops up a little, just like the picture and gives it some class.2. It is warm. I walked our dog many times in windy, at times well below-freezing weather. The wind will not pass through the outer shell.3. The inner shell is a very soft fleece on the outside. My husband likes to hug me when I wear it. :)Cons:1. The pockets are both cloth (even the outer-shell one) and don't feel like they could take me stuffing them really full (with keys, chapstick, wallet, etc) for very long.2. The inner fleece is soft on the outside but the stitching on the inside can get rather itchy/pokey the first few times you wear it. It's either...

Great for skiing
I bought this coat for skiing, and it has been great at keeping me warm even at the top of the most remote mountains in Colorado. I do wish the sleeves were able to tighten around my gloves better, because I do tend to get a lot of snow on my wrists when snowboarding, which is quite cold. Also, the neck of the coat is a little snug (slightly constricting when zipped completely up), but as long as you wear a scarf, you can keep it partly open and be just fine.
