The elves coat is made of beautifully soft fleece in a double layer, with fabric appliqué on sleeves and hood, and nice and light. I usually have Gr. 36/38, with jackets I take more time a no. Bigger so I also can draw something underneath. The Gr. 38 (M) is me now really a bit too large (wide), so that the waist comes out not as extreme as in the picture, but I suspect a Gr. less would have been to me just as a jacket reasons mentioned above. Length from shoulder seam approx 91 cm, waist ca. 92 cm, Sleeve Length about 70 cm. The jacket keeps surprisingly warm - even in subzero levels, no extra sweater or similar under it .. Even slight wind keeps them but. I felt comfortable right from the start it. The hood reaps frequent comments (positive type), however, does not last as properly on the head, because the tip but is quite heavy. But I can live with. All in all I am totally thrilled and consider again strike at vishes. :)
