Thoughts on the fit? Looks good?
First overcoat I've ever bought. This is a wool cashmere blend with some nylon. Feels comfy. Maybe a little tight in the chest when I button up. Never really wore a coat like this so I don't know the fit. Appreciate feedback as always. Y'all help me avoid buyers remorse.

Thanks brother
How do I care for a wool jacket? Can I steam it to get these shipping creases out? Am I suddenly going to attract moths into my bedroom?
What do the wash tags say? You can usually follow those pretty closely
Cedar repels moths / vermin iirc. Creases will go away with wear.
Def follow tag instructions for cleaning.
I only would ignore “dry clean only” if that is there, you can always do low spin cold water
Ive never had issues with moths but depends on where you live
wash tags say dry clean only, anything else i need to look for
When you iron it just make sure its on a low setting, and if you can use a piece of cloth inbetween the jacket if youre gonna use the steamer
Thanks I'll keep it mind
what others have said, use wool setting + use a towel or cloth between
can also usually steam them, I prefer steaming
shouldn't do it often if there's any fusible linings; I just do it when I take it out of storage for the season
This for ironing you mean?
yeah
steaming doesnt require contact
