Men's Arctic Cloth Quilted Performance Parka

The parka has a trim fit, presumably for young men, but is a sensational fit for average to slim older men. The super tall models are wearing ridiculously small sizes. The hem is actually long, like a traditional coat or parka. Mine entirely covers my rump and groin. The freakishly tall and skinny models make the parkas look like waist jackets. I can wear a medium in modern jackets because the sizes have been enlarged(I am 42 chest, 32 waist, LONG arms. (That was the 'Medium-Large' size of my youth, no longer made) I got a large in this 'fitted' garment, and it is an outstanding fit. It fits much like a medium Dickies jacket, though MUCH longer, and a tad more room in the belly. THE CHEST AND ARMS ARE TRIM(and sharp looking) Most brands of mens jackets are tailored like maternity clothes for huge beer bellies. Stay away from this unless your BMI is in a normal range. If you pump iron, the sleeves may be too snug, though they are a generous length, which was important to me. Indeed, only those people with long arms should consider one of these. If the sleeves fit me, they are too long for 3/4 of the population. Many coats have shockingly massive waists, but feature sleeves for T Rex arms. IF YOU ARE FIT AND TRIM, IT IS A FABULOUS FIT. If obese, this is not for you. If you are built like a walrus, this is not for you. If you have vestigial T Rex arms, you will despise the old school long sleeves. At 62, I am the same size as when a senior in high school. 5'9"+, 163 lbs. Insulation: rather modest, needs another layer if much below freezing or windy. In 24 degree weather, light activity, mild breeze, with A shirt, thin flannel shirt, lightweight FTL hoodie, and warm hat, I was very comfortable. If I had been busier, I could unzip the parka and hoodie to regulate temperature. I needed water resistance and greater coverage, and got it. I wanted a traditional look, and got it. I am pleased with the sewing, pockets, and smooth zipper. I liked several colors, though a few are eyesores. It requires layering to be sufficient in low temps, unless burning serious calories. It appears far warmer than the actuality. For those with the right shape, I strongly recommend it as a lightweight parka

Amazingly warm jacket, definitely kept me warm in negative temps in Iowa. Fabric feels nice, and it’s not light way by any means. I think I will enjoy this for many winters to come. I am 5’2 and 162lbs, and got a Medium, fit perfect with plenty room for layers.

Great quality and durability

Very happy with this coat

I got my jacket-parka and it fits nice (XL) on a thick 6'-225# man. I like the material, the fit, the warmth, the features and everything about the jacket, EXCEPT that is all black and not a bit of charcoal or grey on the outside as advertised and what I wanted. Btw, I have plenty of black jackets so I wouldn't have bought another one, but it's not worth the hassle of returning it just because of the accent color is missing. I'm just disappointed that I didn't get what I ordered, but it will still keep me warm. Oh well!

Heavyweight, very warm winter coat. I ordered 1 size up because my boy is a very big kid and it fit perfectly. Great style, pockets are good size. Good is a great size too, not small like other coats.

amazing fit 6'2" regular fit, arm length shoulders etc, great fabric quality .

Ordered a LT and the sleeves are definitely not long for a tall size. When reaching forward the upper bicep area of sleeves strangle your arms. Sad because it's a beautiful coat. Wish it fit

was a warm and comfortable jacket,but the zipper quit working after 4 months

Super manteau d'hiver !! Il est fantastique la coupe est parfaite, je mesure 5'7 et 150lb les bras sont ajuster à la perfection il est très confortable et très chaud les matériaux utilisés sont excellent ☆☆☆☆☆
