Bought from New Look about 5 years ago (I know, it sounds old!) and it is still in a very good condition. No tears. The leather isn\\\\\\\'t as hard as it used to be, but its good a fair bit of life left in it, thats for sure! It is black and comes down to about the start of the calves. Looks great and can be worn for casual or smart. Not too heavy. Post only (no pick ups) and the cost is £40. (that is a third of the price that I paid for it when it was new. Pictures can be sent to you if you want and the coat is a size 12.
