Alban’s Classic Winter.
The men’s ALBAN Jacket is the classic cold-weather warmer by Quartz Co., designed for days and nights in the busy city. The no-nonsense profile is packed with 250 grams of Isosoft breathable synthetic insulation, staying warm even when wet. Cambridge fabric makes for a resilient, waterproof, breathable shell, and is treated with a Durable Water Repellent finish. The adjustable fixed hood offers extra protection. A YKK two-way front zipper hides behind a full-length placket. The two outer pockets are fleece lined for cold-hand rescue. One internal pocket stores valuables, while storm cuffs ensure nothing from the outside gets to the inside of the jacket.

Alas, I got the wrong size and you were sold out of the right one so I couldn&#x27;t exchange. 6&#x27;3&quot; and 215, went with medium given the sizing advice and it was just too tight. Length was great and it&#x27;s a really sleek, minimalist design. Made in Canada, too. I snoozed and lost.

Beautiful coat!

Bought this coat for my husband, very warm and stylish. Bonus that it’s Made in Canada!

Warm and Stylish

Got this a couple of days back during black friday and seems like a good purchase. Wore it a outside in early negatives and kept me nice and warm. The fit is slim but still enough to layer up with a shirt and sweater, if needed. Has two way zipper which is much needed when getting in and out of car. Could have used a pocket more on this -- but overall, a great jacket. Made in Canada for our winters!

Nice Cozy One..

Un très beau manteau, très chaud, mais la fermeture éclair presque impossible à attacher me donne envie de le retourner. Grosse déception de constater cet amateurisme. Dommage car c’est un produit local.

Décevant

Belle qualité et coupe classique comme je recherchais, jusqu’à présent -20 degrés passe le test.
5&#x27;10 170lbs et le medium fait bien.
Seul point ennuyant est le zipper qui n’est pas le plus fluide.
Sinon, rien a redire et fait au Canada.

Belle qualité

The short of it is that this is a great coat. Fairly light, not bulky, well made, warm, good features, waterproof (haven&#x27;t tested that but the material seems like it would be). It&#x27;s got a clean design and fits well. For what you get, I think it is a little expensive. This coat would be a good deal at $500 but I&#x27;m happy with the premium cost given that it also looks good and isn&#x27;t bulky.

I bought the large and generally, I wear large tees and medium-size hoodies. The jacket could be a little tighter but fits pretty true. Definitely have space for a bulky sweater underneath.

Pros:
Feels nice on the outside
Warm, felt-lined pockets
Fits well, doesn&#x27;t hug too tight but also isn&#x27;t puffy or bulky
Perfect length (I&#x27;m 5&#x27;11&quot; and it&#x27;s about the longest it could be while still allowing me to get to my jeans pocket with only some effort)
Sleek look
Small hood (it&#x27;s just big enough but maximises peripheral vision, I hate big hoods where you can&#x27;t see anything around you)
Smoothest zipper I&#x27;ver ever used
Pretty warm
Made in Canada (if that&#x27;s your sorta thing)
&quot;storm cuffs&quot; are great (the arm sleeves have an inside ring of elastic material which grips your wrists and stops anything (like cold wind) from getting in the sleeve). Didn&#x27;t know I needed this feature but it works very well.

Cons:
Doesn&#x27;t have many pockets
The zipper pull tab is garbage. It&#x27;s small and flimsy and feels bad. That&#x27;s the only part of this coat that I think is offensive and if it weren&#x27;t for the fact that the zipper itself is so great, would surely break (I&#x27;ve broken multiple zipper tabs on other jackets so I&#x27;m sensitive to this).
Bunches a bit around the mid-section if you&#x27;re not standing perfectly straight
The outer pockets are a bit big which causes cold air to funnel into them; I don&#x27;t think you could get away without wearing gloves when it&#x27;s very cold
Not thaaaat warm; I&#x27;m dubious of the -20C claim, especially if you add some windchill to that. So if you&#x27;re always cold and want something to make you nice and toasty, this isn&#x27;t it.
Maybe because I&#x27;m not super tall, but the sleeves are on the long end - they almost entirely cover my palms when my arms hang at my side. It&#x27;s just short of being long enough to be annoying.
The inside is a standard plastic material which can get a bit sweaty (it&#x27;s not bad, it&#x27;s just not good either. The same plastic lining you get in any jacket).


Overall, like I said, great jacket. It&#x27;s got a few niggles and compromises which I would have hoped to do without on a $700 coat from a relatively small brand. But it&#x27;s warm and for me, it&#x27;s worth a premium because I like the design a lot (it&#x27;s very similar looking to an Arc&#x27;teryx jacket which costs $1000). I think this will get me through a Toronto winter with ease.

Great but a little pricey

Amazing high quality coat. While the coat looks slim, it runs larger than other coats: I would normally get a medium to wear with a suits but in this case, I am very comfortable with a small.
