I just got this as a birthday gift and I love it! The Material is sturdy and it's actually a bit long on me, and I'm 5'11" Barely an inch trails on the ground behind me. The hood is nice and deep as well. Though I only give it four stars is because of the Velcro clasp, it's a bit tight about the neck and is bothersome, but it isn't anything that you couldn't get used too. ^_^ I can't wait for Renn fest this year!
