Not much is wrong with it. Certainly the price is right. The length looks good, and the addition of chest level slash hand pockets is aces. Overall, a great coat for a low price.

But it’s the over abundance of buttons and how close they’re placed down the front that throws it off a touch. To me. If the front lower flap pockets didn’t have buttons? Maybe. If there weren’t epaulets sprouting more buttons? Perhaps. But otherwise, cue the Aerosmith:

Would you wear it? Or do all those buttons throw it off for you as well?

I’d definitely wear this. I personally like a lot of buttons… Until they start falling off that is…
