Hello,
Need some quick advice...
Found this vintage green Polo Ralph Lauren duffle coat that I really like.
However, it is very roomy...
I wonder if it is TOO roomy to wear? I cant really make up my mind.

Here is a photo, sorry for the poor quality. Im 6'4", 175 lbs. Size on coat is Large...

If you intend to layer under it, I would put on layers (as you normally would in the winter), put on the coat, make sure the shoulders are even, and take pictures, this time more clear, of the coat toggled up and the coat not toggled up. Not to mention putting a heavy hand in your pocket is going to make it drape weird, and prevent us from seeing the sleeve length, and it doesn't even seem like you're wearing the coat straight. You could also provide us with measurements.

Thank you for your answers. Im having trouble taking decent photos. However, it is too roomy for it to be a perfect fit, but the question is really if I would get away with it or is it instant face palm?

looks like you could wear another duffle coat under that duffle coat. so no, i dont think you should wear it so oversized. see TOJ thread for how a nicely fitted duffle coat fits see how on yours, the shoulder seams hang off your shoulders, but in this picture, they line up with the actual shoulder?

The potato sack duffle in combination with the 5" hem skinny pants and the size US13 clown shoes is - proportion-wise - one of the creepiest things I've ever seen...
