Someone has to tell Me why you call it a sweater. It simply might be the warmest and nicest looking coat one could own.

Problem with pockets
The hand warmer pockets are located at the bottom hem of the jacket, and are not comfortable to use. The jacket is otherwise good, but I returned it because of the pockets

Really nice jacket but isn't fitted at all and kind of boxy. Tighter arm cuffs and the ability to tighten the waist would be nice given it's "boxiness"and does little to help with

Beautiful jacket but odd fit.

Beautiful, quality jacket!! Unfortunately the fit is odd. XL was too wide at the bottom and L was too tight in the shoulders. On a man that is 5’10” and 200ish lbs. Had to return.

Very tight around the shoulders and arms which limits your mobility while wearing this jacket. Very light almost like a shell. Would not recommend or buy again.

I really like this coat. It's approximately 1/4" to 3/8" thick, so don't expect it to be thick with down. There is just enough down to add some warmth.
