This coat is vary warm and durable not to mention FR rated for added protection, its the right density for working in not to thick were it causes an over balky feeling I need to be mobile in a coat this seems to be perfect, its stiff because its brand new so I plan on washing the coat to soften it up a bit, keep in mind when washing you don't use certain detergents, the last thing you need is washing all of the fr protectant out and all you have is an exspensive non FR coat.
