I bought this poncho about two months ago. Although it is a bit unusual, I love this thing. I mainly use it as a giant vest for when I walk the dog. It's nice to be able to dress a little lighter underneath it, but be able to keep my back and core warm. It's been described as a fellow dog walker as a short sleeping bag with tiny sleeves. that's a pretty apt description. My wife initially thought that it was weird, but now that she has been caught sleeping in it on the couch, she admits that it's warm and comfy. I'm 5"9" and about 215 lbs, with large shoulders. I purchased the L/XL. I normally wear an XL or XXL. I could wear this poncho over every coat that I own except for my two down filled parkas. It is sized on the big side of things. I routinely wear a light puffer under it, or bulky fleece jackets. The hood is great as well.
