The fur is from a South American animal looks like coyote with fox trim hood. It has a draw string waist and vertical lined pockets. Stored extremely well and hardly worn. I wore it after ski with leggings but great with straight jeans or dress slacks. Originally created by Cosmos Furs in Glenview Illinois. I was a size 12 when purchased but became size 14 Each size looked great. There have been some repairs where there were some tears in the skin as it caught on a hook while being worn. The fur covers them so not noticeable while wearing.
