My first acquisition from Lusso Leather, it is clear beyond any doubt these folks know leather and how to put it together to create a stylish, functional, high-end garment which to me would not be a surprise if it cost 5 times the price. The quality of the leather and fur are excellent and the detailing is far beyond what one would expect at this price point. The fit is exquisite, no doubt the result of their sharp focus on obtaining the critical measurements of the would-be wearer. This is a substantial coat which I have no doubt will keep me warm in very cold to extremely cold weather. It is designed so that there is ample protection of the neck and the sleeves are a fraction longer than most "large" coats, a feature which will contribute to keeping one's hands nice and snug in the coldest weather, with or without gloves or mittens although clearly the addition of independent hand coverings such as mittens will obviously make for better heat retention. There is ample room for the mittens or gloves to fit inside the sleeves. The coat has arm belts designed in to further insulate one from cold. Functionally, besides the obvious primary function of preserving one from the cold, this beautiful coat has a number of small and large pockets which are absolutely functional and the two large pockets on the front are very attractive in a "frontier" style. They are quite roomy indeed. The quality of the raw materials of which this coat is made I have already alluded to but it bears emphasizing that they are of a high caliber. The stitching is nothing short of superior. Ergonomically, all parts of this extremely well tailored leather garment are well above what one would expect of a more expensive leather coat. Rich in appearance without question this is a jacket that one would choose over others hanging in the closet! This is perhaps one of the most salutary features of this fine Lusso Leather jacket. Doubtless, a great deal of thought went into this garment, a combination of superb protection against the harsh Canadian winter but additionally combined with both style and function. One can hardly wait for the apex of the cold of a Canadian winter to prove the considerable virtues of this masterpiece from Lusso Leather.
