This is my first lab coat so I don't have any others to compare it too. That said...I took the advice of others and ordered mine a couple sizes larger than actual chest size. Order 4 larger than your normal chest size and everything should fit fine. (Im normally a 44 chest size so 48 fits me great)
Overall the cost seems great. Not too heavy, not too flimsy light. Only flaw noticed is that one of the button holes is a little frayed so when I was initially unbuttoning it to try on, I had a little issue unbuttoning one button. Had to sort it which threads go which way around the button. Shouldnt be a major issue though.
Overall Im quite satisfied. Especially pleased that this lab coat comes in a variety of colors.
