Sloane Wool Blend Walker Coat

The coat looks great on and I love the knit neckline. But beware the coat sheds. I touched the coat in one spot and had a ton of little black fibers on my fingers. It would get all over your clothes and purse so be careful when wearing. I wouldn't recommend wearing it with lighter colors. Unfortunately I have to return it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I initially agreed to try this jacket in exchange for my opinion because I actually needed a walking coat for walking my dogs on cold mornings or evenings. But I did not expect to like this coat as much as I do or it to be as high quality as it is so I am no considering it more a going out fancy coat. From the extra details on the buttons to the extra fine texture and pattern on the actual coat this jacket is great! The fit is a little more relaxed and loose than generally prefer but that makes this coat great for layering. Also, the wool itself is so soft and warm that this really is such a fantastic jacket all around. Despite the relaxed fit there is some shape to it and the double breasted buttons are placed at just the right height for comfort across your breasts and a decent fit. Overall this jacket is premium, attractive, warm and well made.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The contrasting ribbed knit collar is the star here. It adds a "sculptural" element to the neckline that makes the coat look much more expensive than a standard pea coat. The button placement is intentional—it’s wide enough to broaden the shoulders but narrows at the waist to keep you from looking like you're wearing a blanket.
