Everyman Chore Coats

Avoid if you have pets, at least the black version

I really wanted to rate this highly, the fit and function are wonderful. Unfortunately the fabric acts like a magnet for pet hair. I have a large variety of black clothes, but nothing else even comes close to this. I've been putting it trough the washing machine for the last couple months every chance I get, in hopes of softening it up and making it usable. I enjoy wearing it on special occasions, but it's too much of a -chore- to keep at a reasonable level of hair for daily use. *** Updated from 3 to 4 stars: The fabric is continuing to soften up a bit and becoming a little more manageable. I still want something like this in a slightly different fabric because the design is so good.

Perfect Fit (in both meanings of the word).!!

The size was exactly as I presumed and as apart of the whole set (which I got), it looks amazing, not too heavy and the material is rugged & comfortable. I'd recommend it to anyone who has been interested in this piece or any of the other apparel options provided by Aroundsquare.

Great coat, sleeves are definitely long enough

Like everyone else has said, this is a great coat; washing it once (on warm) softens it up and it's very comfy. re: sizing in particular; I wasn't sure which to go with between Large and Large Tall -- I'm 6'1", 150lbs, so tall and thin, but I'm fairly broad across the shoulders. I got a large, and (after an initial wash) the sleeves come down past my wrists and stop about half an inch before my fingers. Measuring my arm as an alternative way to do sizing, the distance from my armpit to the tip of my middle finger (palm facing down), is about 32". Basically, the sleeves on the large are almost certainly going to be plenty long enough, unless you want really long sleeves (or have very long arms).
