After reading the reviews I was hesitant ordering my regular size so I ordered 2 sizes. I find coats generally run smaller than my normal size. I am 5 9 and wear a 12. The X-Large fit perfectly. The sleeves are long (wonderful!)The rest of the coat fit like I had it made for me. Very pleased! The only thing I don't like is the tiny metal bow(the D.E.P.T. logo?) on one side near the waist. I may try to have that removed. Love the edgy buttons. My husband thought it looked great too. Can't wait to wear this coat!!
