Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Runs SmallRuns Large
This coat feels soft and comfy inside, and I love the fleece hand warmers in the sleeves and in the pockets. However I had to return it as it's a little long on me, I'm about 5'3" 145lbs, and it definitely runs one size smaller. I like my coats a little on the roomy side - I usually wear a large in coats. I purchased the XL based on other reviews and it fits, but the shoulders are pretty wide and the waist is still kind of snug. My body type is basically straight up and down, not a whole lot of curves so I prefer to have a jacket without the built-in curves. Also the amount of (non-removable) fur on the hood looks like it's about to devour my head.

Runs small. I usually wear a small/medium size. I ordered a medium to have extra room but it was tight overall.

I am 5'7" 154lbs. I do not consider myself an XL., (not even a large, but I do have longer arms than most gals) but since this coat is "fitted" and curves in at the waist, I went a size up like they suggested. I am glad I did. I live in East Central Wisconsin. This coat is plenty warm. I've never had a coat fit so well. Normally we dress in layers to stay warm. With this coat being 'fitted', you don't have to wear layers, because it is plenty warm with just a normal wardrobe underneath. I wouldn't be able to zip it up if I did! I love the hood that covers your face when the wind is blowing. I love the built in fingerless gloves attached. Plenty of pockets all around. It is sometimes difficult to be fashionable when it is 20 degrees out, but I definitely feel feminine & cool since it is not a boxy parka. I love the option of zipping it when you are out in the cold, OR, there is large hooks with buttons instead when you are in the car. This way, you get warm really fast when you start the heater, you will want to unbutton the hooks so you don't overheat.
The only strange thing, is that when it was really cold, I was sitting in my car, & every time I moved, the inside layer made a funny noise when I moved. It sounded like crinkled paper. I haven't heard it again, but I'm waiting.

This jacket was so cute! The cut was very flattering and all the little details made it look like a stylish coat instead of a winter parka. The only problems I had with it were the sleeves - they were a little too tight on me because they are so full of warm down! And that brings me to the other problem - it was actually way too warm for our mild, Northern California winters! I'm not often out when the temperature is below 35 degrees. This is definitely a very warm winter jacket!

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Size up. It definitely is a slim cut. I normally wear a 2 petite and found the SMALL too snug. If you have full hips or a large bust you may have issues with the fit even sizing up. The shoulders fit fine but when zipped up it was snug from the armpits down. While it is warm enough to not have to leave room for more than a light/med layer underneath I am 5" and 110lbs. and the small was cozy. (I would imagine impossible to sit comfortably if zipped.) I really appreciate the details and findings(buttons/zippers) The color is a lovely taupe-y olive. Not too green, not too grey. I like that the drawstring at the waist is on the inside. The thumbless/fingerless built in cuffs are a nice detail that would come in handy when very cold. There are hand warmer pockets above the waistline plus secure hip pockets. Very functional without looking purely sporty. I'm exchanging it for a size up and hoping that it won't be too long on my small frame.
I'd also recommend:
North Face or Columbia

This is a beautiful, seemingly well made coat — if you're of a slender build. I'm usually a size 10/12 and a (busty) large in shirts and coats. I ordered an XL, and while I could zip it fine, the pockets on the chest area were pulling open and the hip area looked too tight. I ordered the Canyon Parka from S13 as well (which I'll probably keep) and the XL in that was actually a bit big on me. Too bad this brand doesn't seem to have very consistent sizing.

I bought this coat for my Daughter. It’s very stylish and warm. I must say that it is not true to size. My daughter usually wears a small. Taking customer reviews into consideration, I purchased a size Medium and it was very snug across the shoulders and chest area. I returned it for a size XL and it’s perfect with extra space. I’m thinking she will get at least 2 years out of it; Maybe 3.

One of the rare coat that was fitting a small frame: 5'2 / 110 pd. So I guess it is cut small as I am generally 0P. Great material, color and cut and very warm even for the north East harsh winters (although a bit short for very cold weather). Pockets in the right places. Only drawback for me: the fur does not come out and is in the way when you want to zip the coat all the way up. But may be the rest outweighs this small detail.

This coat is so warm, cozy, and looks amazing. The coat does run small, I normally wear a size 2 or 4, purchased a medium but had to exchange it for a large. The medium was too snug if I wanted to wear a sweater underneath. I’m 135lbs, 5’7” and 36b. Large is perfect for me

This is for sure one to two sizes small. I usually wear a medium or large and i had to get an extra large and it still was snug. So I’m returning it. However the detail and design is just gorgeous! And it would be a very warm coat.

I typically wear a xs/sm but based on the other reviews I sized up to a medium. It fits perfect with a little extra room for a sweater. It’s so comfortable and looks stylish. It seems like it will be warm for the Chicago winters. I love love love this coat!

I'm so happy I bought this jacket! You definitely need to size up like other reviewers have said. I am normally a small and I bought the medium. It fits perfectly. If I wear a bulky sweater underneath the jacket, it does get snug. Very warm and very nice looking.

Great jacket! I'm 5'2" and on the petite side so this was a great fit for me. It was longer on me than the model, which is actually great for me, but due to my short height. Overall, I love the color and feel of this jacket!!

Very stylish coat and GREAT value for the price. My wife loves her gift. It seemed to fit just fine although I read something about it running big. We will see how it holds up to the cold weather. So far so good.

I ordered a medium although, I am a large because of past reviews saying that the small was too small and to order a size up. I highly recommend that. I am 5'2" and 110 lbs and the medium is still a bit snug around the torso and I am a bit concerned that I can't fit heavy sweaters under it. This all said, I love this coat and am really happy with it despite some small issues. I love the way it looks and I love the army green color and the fake fur on the hood. Very pleased with this purchase and yep, it's super warm!!

This is a very warm jacket. Hood is very deep. Definitely runs one size small. Arm sleeves with thumb-hole runs short.

Love this jacket...except...it’s incredibly difficult to clean. I must’ve stooped down and sat on my heel and it left this stain that will not go away! I’ve tried everything (some methods left even more stains, some just water stains) and finally brought it to the dry cleaners. We’ll see if they can get the stains out.

I haven't gotten to use it in the elements yet, but it fits comfortably. I love that it has a little shape so that it doesn't look completely boxy. It's very warm and the cuffs will come in handy when I need to use my hands but want them a little bit covered without having to find gloves that'll work.

While I do agree with other reviewers that this coat runs a bit small, I can't agree that it's stylish. I bught the small though I usually wear an XS and it fit just fine with room. However the jacket made me feel like a marshmallow. It was very very puffy. I had to return for that reason.

My wife is 5'6", 130 pounds. Bought a L because people said it runs small. The sleeves are way too short. The rest fit well. Had to return it.

I really would loved to keep this but as some other reviews say the arms were tight. You probably won't be able to wear a thick sweater underneath. The hood cannot be detached, which was a pity. I loved overall style very much but the hood issue was really important to me, so I had to return it. The quality seemed very good. I hope S13 would bring something similar with a detachable hood!
