YES! A toasty coat that looks good too.
I'm 5'9", 140 lbs, you can see how long and wide a size Medium is on me in the picture. Sizing was great for me, I could have gone to a Large if I wanted a baggier look.
Pros:
-Super warm. I've worn this in North Dakota and Washington state, in temperatures down to 15 degrees. I've been wearing normal shirts underneath and have been toasty. When we get to sub-zero temps I'll switch to sweaters underneath and expect the coat to be fine.
-Different/trendy. I've gotten three compliments from strangers on the coat already. Not sure if you can see but each side has a line of buttons on either side of the zipper which keep the padded sides buttoned down and help achieve the coat's cool look.
-Pockets! The two front zip pockets are awesome for keeping my phone, anything big. Just remember to keep them zipped before you bend down. The two normal front pockets underneath those zip pockets are big and room for gloved hands, or for storing, so you have four large pockets total.
-The hood. I love the soft, warm hood. It does get blown back if you're in really windy weather, otherwise it's heavy enough to stay on your head.
-Moisture doesn't penetrate. I've only worn in a light rain and snow so far though, not sure I'd wear it in a downpour.
Cons:
-Coat hook strap has already broken. It was sewn on very cheaply, not sure why they would skimp on that when the rest of the coat is great. Now I can only drape it over a chair or use the hood to hang it, it won't stay hung any other way.
-Zipper sticks a little at the bottom.
