I've got a lot of stuff, including an argyle jacket from J.Higgins. They are nice folks. I'm pleased with my jacket, it's nicely made from good weight material, with good details and functional pockets, including 2 inside pockets, which you don't always get on 'basic' or lower priced coats.

I was also concerned about fit and length. I generally need to get the sleeves shortened on most off the rack coats, so I measured a sportcoat that fits, and then called Higgins and talked to a sales rep. And I ended up with a jacket that fit well right out of the box. I went for the gauntlet cuffs, but if you are leaning toward the straight or PC cuff, I figure those will be easier to alter for length than the gauntlets if you need to.
