Just got this coat yesterday and it certainly exceeded my expectations. Personally, I thought the fit ran pretty true to size. I typically wear a medium and this was dead on with no tailoring needed. It is a a very fashionable, well made, and comfortable coat. The only small drawback (and I do mean small which is why I am still giving 4 stars), is the knit piece on the inside is stitched into the lining of the coat and is not removable. I can see this being a bit of a problem if one is wearing a lot of layers. However, the coat just looks fantastic on and overall, I am very pleased.
