Well made vest. It doesn't effect your range of motion when u are working like most coats do. I like to ware layers of clothes on cold days. I ware thermals,a thin hoodie & this vest. Doing this keeps me very warm & i can still move around. I highly recommend buying the tall in any size. I'm 5'9 & i weight 195 & a large regular wouldn't be long enough. I ordered a large tall & it fits perfect. Also vest is a little stiff until your ware it for about a week but thats Carhartt. Made to last.
