I bought this coat to replace a shorter one that I owned for many years.  My first reaction was excitement at how soft the wool was.  The length is just what I was looking for - a little longer than a jacket - hence the name carcoat.  I have purchased many Kenneth Cole products in the past and this one is another high quality product from a great brand.

The lining is very nice and quilted.  Your arms can slide right in without catching on anything. I am very pleased that I don't have to hold my sleeve while putting on this jacket.  It is very warm - the outer wool plus the inner padded lining make for a great winter coat.

The front of the coat has a zipper that goes all the way up to a turtleneck.  Then a three button flap over the zipper makes for a great combination to keep the wind out.  I do find the turtleneck to be a bit of a hassle as it does rub on my neck a bit.  I have found a technique to curl it down, but it detracts from the looks.  This is the only negative I have found on an otherwise great coat.

As one final warning, make sure you check the sizing carefully.  This is a trim fitting coat.  You may need to order a slightly larger size than normal.

Overall - an excellent looking, warm coat.
