To Guss: Did you ever get/write a review of your Cosplaysky coat?
Oh golly, yeah. I'll try get one out, here (in the meantime here is a PM i wrote to somebody on dw-cosplay:
The material itself is a nice wool (maybe a wool blend), quite soft and thick. It's medium warm, not as warm as a puffer coat, but certainly warmer than a the tweed jacket.
The buttons on mine were plastic, and quite flimsy, but they're easily replacable with some real metal buttons. the lapels are very softly rolled, which isn't always too attrative, as they're not softly rolled in the way that for example, the real sherlock coat is, these lapels just seem badly made. Mine smells oddly, and even though it's been hanging in my carport for a week the smell's still there. (After a month now, it's nearly gone away)
Also, warning, it's very long. Mine is almost ankle-length, whereas the doctor's is around knee-length, and i'll need my mother to shorten it at some point, i reccomend ordering shorter than you need/are.
