This was bought as a gift for the BF.  He picked it out.  Once it was here he was excited.  He put it on and liked the way it felt.  When he went to put his hands in the front pockets he was perplexed.  The pockets are up in the chest area and there are none down by the waist.  This was disappointing.  So far that seems to be the only complaint.  There are plenty of pockets throughout the jacket, inside and out.  It keeps him warm and the material is good quality.
