Very pleased with the jacket, it's functional yet looks sharp.  I removed the cape (about 5 snaps and 30 seconds worth of effort) to reduce the "vampire-slayer" vibe.  I discovered early not to stand in the rain, then wear it into the car, it's called an oilskin duster for a reason, because its oily. I forgave myself for my lack of insight, I'm not from Snowy River after all.  But in this jacket, I look like I could be.
