Dorsey Wool Blend Car Coat

I bought this for our son for his birthday in Charcoal and he really likes it. He's just over 6', wears a 38 in slacks. I bought him an XL for room to layer. *I* really liked this coat for a few reasons... the outer pockets snap closed, the inner layer for warmth (that zips underneath the buttons) is a great touch, and its simple design. I like it enough to get my husband one in another color!

I really wanted to like this coat, but couldn't get past the fit problems. I normally wear a size Medium and that's the size I purchased. The fit through the shoulders, chest, and body is generous. I tried the coat on with a T-shirt under a long-sleeved button-down shirt and there was plenty of room to add additional layers. In fact, there was so much extra room that I considered exchanging for a size Small. Unfortunately, the sleeves in this coat are VERY narrow! I don't have huge arms and the sleeves felt a bit tight, especially at the wrist! Keep in mind: I have tiny (6.5") wrists so anyone with bigger arms may find this coat frustrating to pull on and off. You can forget about wearing it over a sport coat or blazer! That's a shame because the coat is well made and surprisingly warm.

I purchased this coat a month before I wore it. I bought it because was going on vacation but, Ever since I got this jacket last December , it stays covered with lint. I've tried using a lints rollers to clean it, which didn’t work. But after 1-2 wears it is covered. I would’ve return the coat, but was unable to because the timeframe had passed.
