Just what I was looking for |

| I live in South Dakota and winter is pretty extreme, really cold with lots of wind. I needed a warm long coat that was easy to move in and that would block the wind when I walked my dogs. This coat fits my needs perfectly. It has enough room in it that I can layer underneath. I am 5'3" and weigh 110 lbs and the small fits perfectly. I'm glad it doesn't have a hood because a hood would block my vision when I turn my head to look behind me. I haven't found anything negative to say about this coat. |

| This is a great jacket, it fits great and looks great...this jacket is not bulky (ie does not make you look like the michelin man)...it is great for really cold weather and not so cold weather...extremely lightweight....I only wish it 1. had a hood 2. was windproof and 3. was waterproof so I could wear it all the time...but i guess we don't get that much rain in the winter... Anyhow...a great jacket I would definitley recommend this to a friend...really keeps the legs warm. |

| Very warm but without the weight of a heavy winter coat. The large comes to about mid-calf on me, at 5'4", which is long enough to keep my legs warm, but not in my way. The "classic" fit is a little baggy on top since it's a straight cut and I needed the large to fit my hip measurements, but all in all I'm pleased. This will be a great packable coat for trips from warmer to colder climates. |

Elara Down Coat |

| This coat is like wearing a high quality sleeping bag...it is so snuggly. I would recommend getting a size bigger than you think you need. You will need to consider your headwear with this coat as it has no hood option. I would be completely stoked with this coat but I got stung for duty when it came into NZ which effectively doubled my costs!!!(this stole the shine a bit) |

Great coat |

| This coat is very cute and warmer than you would think. It's almost like a little sleeping bag with sleeves. It is nice because it is very lightweight and compactable, you could stuff it in a backpack. The only drawback is that it does not have a hood. I live in Utah and I use it to walk my dog on cold days and it works great. |

Awesome with long sleeves!! |

| Finally a jacket that fits my 5'11" wife. Always has trouble finding sleeves long enough and pant legs that don't go high water on her. Very excellent quality and stylish. Zipper is a bit tricky with a coat this long. She returned a similar one by another maker because the sleeves were too short and the zipper was worse. This one seems great!! |

Warm and puffy. |

| I am an 'apple' shape and the coat was a little tight in the hip area...not so much that it limited movement, but the shape isn't especially flattering. I'm wearing it for warmth, not for Fashion Week, though, so I don't care that much but the reviewer that described it as wearing a comfy sleeping bag was totally spot-on. Warm, not sexy. |

| I have been in search of the perfect coat to keep me warm in the winter because I'm always cold. This coat is it! Snuggly, warm and stylish all in one. I ordered a size larger,per other recommendations, so its a little roomy but great none the less. Finally, I warm running errands or coming home from work late 2nd shift. |

| I looked for a light-weight, flattering, long, warm down coat for a while and this was a great find. I only wish it had a hood; however, I got a long cashmere scarf and and a big furry hat and they work great together for a whole ensemble. Great for my work attire as well as mountain wear. |

Great coat!! |

| Great coat!! I have no problem with the fit. Being slim fitting it can be worn for outdoor activities and the city. I needed a coat that was versatile. Having a hood limits where you can wear it; also, it is an excuse to knit a scarf and hat with some zing. |
