When I got this duck coat, I really loved the simple style, deep red fabric, the heft of the cotton, and the fit was just roomy enough to layer without getting constricted. The buttons and zipper option was appreciated, although the zipper needs a little work to pull together. The body lining feels really warm and the sleeve lining allows for a smooth entry. The hood, which is detachable, is a nice feature. There are enough pockets for me to store essentials, although the slip-on pockets on the side might have a little too small of an opening for some girls. This Carhartt coat is worthy of someone who ventures out in the elements and feed the chickens or do hard work outside...but it doesn't fit my lifestyle. It felt heavy to carry, although when you put it on you don't really notice it much. It felt too much of a coat for me, so I had to return, but I have the utmost respect for sturdy coats like these...like they would last a lifetime.
