Red KapMen's Heavyweight Parka

Nice winter coat, I'm 6'6" and 280lbs and 60yo and ordered 3xt. This is a well built coat and warm warm warm. I have been out in below zero and am impressed. The best winter coat I have ever owned.

As with all Red Kap I ordered a size smaller than I normally wear and it’s a perfect fit.I say bring on winter.

I have had more expensive winter coats, but this one is the BEST.It fits well.It has plenty of pockets.The collar zips right up to your chin, and the thick, warm hood snaps closed in front of that. TWO snaps. This hood really seals out the wind. Best of all though, the hood does NOT smash my glasses into the bridge of my nose. I have had many coats with hoods that did exactly that, and wearing them for any length of time was uncomfortable. I really like this coat!

I have a problem with clothing for my husband. He's paralyzed on one side, and wears a bulky hand and forearm brace on that side. It's very hard to get the arm thru a long sleeve. With last winter's coat, we decided it would be simpler to just use one sleeve, wrapping the coat around his other arm & torso. It was a tight fit, and the zipper was hard to align, so I was in the market for a larger coat.Locally, I can' find large sizes for him to try on, so even though there were warnings that this coat ran big, I got the biggest size. I could have gone one size down, but it's not a tragedy that it's a little big. I don't necessarily have to match up the zipper--there are hook and loop patches which also fasten the coat. It seems like it will be very warm.There are some things I don't like. The material is very stiff--I don't know if it will soften up with washing and continued use. There's no loop at the back of the neck to hang the coat. The neck flap sticks up in front, and I'll probably tack on hook & loop pieces so it won't brush against my husband's face.He has a permanent situation with one arm, but every year there are many, many people who break their arms (or have surgery) and have to wear a cast. I keep hoping someone will manufacture coats with zippers or Velcro strips at the wrist

I bought this coat specifically to wear while riding my scooter in freezing to below-freezing temperatures -- and it's been great! The velcro at the wrists is especially useful for keeping the wind out. I love the high collar that shields my neck without needing a scarf.It's a bit large on me because I'm a woman so my proportions are a bit off. The fabric is also a bit stiff so in combination with the size I feel a little like a kid in an overstuffed down jacket. But hopefully with some time the fabric will loosen up and that will be less of an issue.

This is nicely made coat and of good quality. It just wasn’t what I was looking for when it arrivedThe hood flaps stick out out like airplane wings on either side of your head and the coat has very stifffeel to it when you’re wearing it. Also a metal zipper would be better for this coat verse a nylon one. So because of these issues I returned it. For anyone confused on what size to get I usually wear a large size but because of reviews saying it fits big when ordering their exact size I went with the medium size and the fit was just right. Hope this helps.

I purchased this coat for my brother, and he was so impressed by the quality how warm it is I just bought him another in a different color. For reference, we live in MT and it can be difficult to find winter coats that are warm enough. These coats are a great value and really well made. I ordered a 4x, and fit was true to size.

Good and the bad. Jacket is big really warm but the zipper is very cheaply made. Only had it a day and seems like it's falling apart. If they made a zipper that wasn't cheap plastic it would probably be a great jacket. Until they get better zippers I wouldn't buy another one.
