Our coats are designed to fit true to size with room for a sweater of medium thickness. If you regularly wear very thick sweaters or blazers underneath, consider sizing up. The XXS is engineered for women 5'1"–5'4" at a size 00/0. Most styles suit women 5'4"–6'. Individual coat lengths by size are on the full fit guide.

How to Measure

Standard Measurements

Bust
Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, parallel to the floor. Keep it snug but not tight. Measure over a light layer.

Waist
Measure around your natural waist — the narrowest part of your torso, usually an inch or two above your belly button.

Hip
Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat, usually 7–9 inches below your natural waist, parallel to the floor.

Shoulder — Across the Back
With your arms relaxed at your sides, measure straight across the back from the edge of one shoulder to the other — from shoulder tip to shoulder tip. This is the measurement most likely to determine your size if you are between two sizes. A coat that fits at the shoulder will fit everywhere else. Please note, shoulder across back measurements are very different from shoulder across front measurements.

Sleeve Length — CB Neck to Wrist

Stand with your arm relaxed at your side, elbow slightly bent.

Place the tape at the prominent bone at the center back of your neck — where your neck meets your shoulders.

Run it across the top of your shoulder, down the outside of your arm, to your wrist bone.

We measure sleeve length from CB neck — not the shoulder seam — so your measurement matches our chart directly.

Coat Length — CB Neck to Hem

Stand straight with feet together.

Place the tape at the same prominent bone at the center back of your neck.

Run it straight down your back to where you'd like the coat to fall.

Individual coat lengths by size are on the full fit guide — helpful for visualizing where each style lands on your frame.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are wool coats warm?

YES. Our coats are made with high-quality 100% wool and fully lined, these two elements provide excellent insulation while remaining breathable. Wool naturally regulates temperature, keeping you warm in cold weather without overheating. Our longer, double breasted coats are warmer than our shorter single breasted coats. More coat = more warmth.

2. What are the benefits of a 100% wool coat?

A 100% wool coat offers excellent warmth, durability, and breathability. Wool resists odors, regulates body temperature, and maintains its shape over time. Wool is also renewable and biodegradable. When combined with regenerative farming wool can enhance soil health and bio-diversity.

3. Are your coats fully lined?

Yes. All Checkroom coats are fully lined for warmth, structure, and longevity.

4. How should a wool coat fit?

Our coats are designed to allow for comfortable layering while maintaining a clean, tailored silhouette. If you regularly wear blazers under your coats, you may consider sizing up.

5. How long should a quality wool coat last?

With proper care, a well-made wool coat can last 10–20 years or more, making it a worthwhile investment. Brushing and steaming between cleanings can extend the life of your coat along with storing it on a wide hanger to help maintain its shape.

6. Where are your coats made?

Our coats are made in the USA using responsibly sourced RWS certified domestic wool, with a focus on craftsmanship, transparency, and ethical production.
