About Stephan Schneider
Stephan Schneider's eponymous label is universally known for both creative, thoughtful design and incredible fabrics developed in-house. It's that combination of elements that rewards this percipient designer's patrons and keeps them coming back. Born in Germany, Stephan graduated top of his class from the Royal Academy for Fine Arts in Antwerp in 1994, winning a prize for his final collection that allowed him to show it in Paris. Since then, the collections have been shown during Paris Fashion Week, while design and production remain squarely in Belgium.

For reference I am 6'3 and 175 lbs, and I don't find the jacket overly snug anywhere. I am a size 40/50 across the board, so this is my normal size in Schneider, and I'd say it fits as normal; with a knit underneath it feels just about perfect, not tight but not oversized.
The space is there to accommodate shoulders/arms at least a bit bigger than mine, so I am even a 42/52 could fit into this size for a "slim fit" jacket (though that isn't what Schneider intended), i.e. maybe just a tee or button-up underneath but it would work.
With the buttons all done up, the interior chest measurement right across the bottom of the armholes is a bit more than 22 inches (for a standard 40 outerwear fit). With the front open, it accommodates up to 24 inches width.
The shoulders measure almost exactly 19 inches whether you measure them inside or outside; the arms aren't padded, so the only difference in interior/exterior measurements is the thickness of the unlined wool fabric.
About the warmth, if you aren't going to rely on it to get you through the coldest days of a Canadian winter, it will probably do whatever else you need from it. I know people who wear thin-lined wool overcoats all winter, and half of them don't cover their heads or their ears. With this on, those people could laugh all through February. But personally I have to wear something down-filled and cover my head, ears and hands, or else I freeze.
Toronto doesn't usually get really chilly (even by my standards) until sometime in January, so a "normal" person would probably be able to wear this all fall and into January, maybe the warmer days in February, and then again once it starts to warm back up a bit. If you like to layer or you have some reliable ultralight down shirt-jackets or anything equivalent, this might be all you need. (Well, maybe earmuffs.)
I have never removed the lining or the hood, but are both detachable via buttons, which makes it even more versatile.
