The closures baffle me.
It closes with a zipper. There are fake buttons. But there is also a bit of facing to hide the fake buttons. What...? Why...?

And the fabric looks...kind of light. Like it's some kind of suiting fabric not normally used in exterior coats. It would probably would look better if it were properly ironed, though.

I feel like you could get someone to handmake you a better-looking replica for like a fifth of the price.

you can pretty much say that about anything made through manufacturers,ever. In the end it's the brand that is the reason for the price.

It looks good, but if a cosplay wants to save some money, he/she might as well try buying this same set of apparel at a retail store... The brand name may be the reason for that high price tag.

Yeah it would be a lot cheaper to just make one your self or have someone make it for you. Not to mention it would probably look a better too. Rolling Eyes
