Columbia Women's Snow Duchess Parka

My husband bought this off of my Amazon Wish List for me and I have to say, I'm pretty disappointed. While it's a good looking coat, it seems to run small. I found it to be tight in the shoulders and snug all over, so there's not much room if you want to wear a sweater under it. The sleeves are a little too long, so if I ordered a larger size, it really wouldn't fit at all. It isn't as long as it looks in the photo either. Maybe it'll be okay for those women out there with small shoulders, and really long arms, but mine's being returned for a refund.

I bought this coat for my mother last year for Christmas and she loves it. It fits her well, hugs in all the right places, and keeps her warm in Michigan (where it gets quite chilly in the winter time). I've heard no complaints about fit from her and she's in love with it. She tells me that she's been getting compliments about the coat and a lot of people have commented that it looks like she's lost weight when she wears it (always a compliment).

All in all, I think its a great coat, and she's had no problems with fit, so give it a chance.
