OK.......So...... I've NEVER owned a long coat......

Let's face it.....at 350lbs. a long coat is gonna weight like 20lbs. and have enough material to form a 2 man tent............

And I never needed to be that warm in California.......Overweight I was always runnin HOT.....

It does get chili in San Fran......and I am COLD all the time now....... (justifying!)

So whatta think?????

I'm going for the "Confused Bariatric Artist" look........

Keep it. It looks great on you. You can dress it up over a suit if you need to and you can Look ultra cool in the jeans and sweater/t-shirt. SF is freeze your ass of territory for months (OK I'm from LA) but i take my winter coats out of storage to go there in the winter. Also i don't drive there so a coat is easy to wear. I think it looks hot.

By all means keep it. Its a good look. The main thing is if its warm enough. And water repellent.

But its styli****s you. Diane

As a Canadian I wear coats for seven months of the year so my opinion carries a great deal of weight in this matter.

Honestly, I really like it. It fits you very well.

It can be worn casual or dressy so it's like you're getting two coats for the price of one (I'm helping you justify the purchase here).

And, it's fun to own a thing you've never owned before.

My vote is to keep it.
