The Mackinaw Coat

I didn’t know what to expect but after receiving mine in the mail it earns a woah this is very high quality. I’m not sure where the wool is weaved for this coat but it’s perfection. It’s a dense, and smooth fabric that makes me think it’s luxury brand material. Sewing looks great, shoulder fit perfectly. Pockets were a concern of mine after reading reviews but they are all great so don’t listen to anyone whine about them. The upper hand pockets are similar to WW2 USN peacoats, and the lower ones are nice too. Being a bit over 6 ft tall the long is perfect. Again, wasn’t expecting the coat to be this nice but it is. 5 stars!

I have had the mackinaw coat in a size medium for several years and tried very hard to like it. I ended up disappointed and I recently decided not to keep it. This decision was based on the way it fit. I usually wear a size large, often finding myself between a medium and a large. I chose the medium because the torso and waist area is quite large on these. A large would have been incredibly too large for an athletic body type. I needed more of an athletic fit - trimmer in the torso and abdomen, with room in the arms and shoulders. I'm 5'8 1/2" and 170 pounds. My coat was just the opposite. I did not feel there was adequate mobility in the shoulders and arms. Another issue, which has been discussed in other reviews, is the location and design of the upper pockets. These serve no purpose at all. Nothing can be put in them and they are much too high for hand warmer pockets. I would highly suggest that they not be included on the coat or that pockets similar to the lower pockets be used. The quality of the wool with this coat is exceptional and I would have loved for this to work out. I have a SK vest with the same wool in size large that fits perfect, and I proudly wear it often. When I have an opportunity, I will try one of the new Double Mackinaw coats in hopes that the fit is better. ~ Good morning, We are sorry that the coat didn't quite work out for you.

So I bought this coat last year and it was daily wear, it was a bit big but an awesome coat. At the Memorial Day sale I got another one (that’s how good they are) and the sizing is perfection. Sturdy, warm, the best coat I’ve ever owned!

My wife and myself both got the stormy kroner wool shirts. They are the best quality and very warm. And they fit. I also replaced my hunting hat with stormy kroner wool hat in blaze orange. I'm 100 percent satisfied,and will be buying from stormy kroner again.

Coat - (chest)52+ (Waist) 50+, should be 42-44 Coat should be some insulation. I realize it isn't insulated, but with measurements too big, even with a layers, it is cut incorrectly. I didn't return it and go through the hastle and added expense. I needed a good coat now. I expected better from Stormy Kromer. ~~I'm sorry the sizing didn't work out for you.

This jacket is pretty raw. There is no lining; therefore no inside pockets. I've been wearing mine for a year,or so, and have no complaints about the warmth of the coat. It is advertised to have six pockets. In my opinion, four of the pockets are useless. the only pockets that are can be accessed easily are the flap pockets on the front. The chest "hand warmer" pockets are way to high and way to small to be or any use. The pockets behind the flap pockets are also not very convenient. I usually wear an XL, but I also own the Boundry Jacket and found the armholes are too tight for someone with muscular arms and delts. This is not a coat that one would wear out for a night on the town, unless that town were Fairbanks.

My two Mackinaw Wool Coats are my favorite Fall through Spring in New England. I put my Filson in storage and I'm going with the Kromer. The collar of the Kromer is significantly larger which helps protect from wind, rain, and snow. Also, the wool is nicer. My only complaint are these weird top pockets? I can't even reach them. They're too small to be handwarmers and too difficult to reach to be a drop pocket. They just kind of hang out, mocking me with their perplexing nature. Huge fan of the SK brand. Have 5+ hats, 3 vests, and 3 twill shirts. Bless you all. You have a loyal fan for maintaining the character to support the American textile industry.

Seeing the pictures doesn't do it justice. The quality is nice, feels great, and very comfortable. It's a nice thick material that I think will last me a long time. I was worried at first because buying something you can't physically see and feel always makes me nervous. I am glad I pulled the trigger though. I got the olive one to go along with the cap. I will definitely do more business with them in the future.

I was looking to purchase a Mackinaw coat and shopped around. I remembered the Stormy Kromer cap that I purchased years ago and love it. I live in Canada and was hesitant with the purchase since shipping and customs charges would be on top of the purchase price. I got in touch with customer support and Penny assisted me. She was extremely helpful and I couldn't be happier. Thanks SK!!
