Description
this is the pattern for the coat kirito wears in sword art online with actual measurements (measurements are subjects to alteration depending on person wearing it) for anyone who is confused about the left side right side bit, i placed them together where they would be sewed together that "S" shape is the back and the taller piece at the top is the chest,
you will need one of each piece Plus backing fabric (something comfortable like felt) unless you wanna go hardcore and have 2 of each piece and sew all together before assembly (having leather on outside and inside)
since kiritos coat has no pockets or buttons you can improvise and modify by using hidden pockets on the inside and well placed pockets on the outside (plus chest pockets that is actually on the coat, not shown here but will in a future kirito cosplay pic) and if you want to do the coat up for times when it gets cold i suggest sewing some magnets in to the outer seems of the coat and collar so they connect easily and are hidden from site like in the show, and don't forget you will have a belt so use that to keep it all together when cold as-well...
the measurements given are only a guideline for a one layer coat , to sew accurately you will need a one inch over hang on each side like i did with the collar section shown in this pic, so for example if your waist is 32 inches around and you cut the coat pieces to 16 inches in the waist area then it is going to be too small as the completed coat will fit a 28 inch waist (16+16 = 32 but take 1 inch from each side, a total of 4 inches, thats an inch on the left side and back side of left side pattern and same on right side, so 32 -4 = 28) so aim for 18 to 19 inches so that you can sew accurately to fit your size perfectly with room to spare if you add pockets for anything you put in them...
good luck and i hope this helps

About how much fabric should one expect to use for this coat?

It all depends on how tall u are.... measure from (on this particuler coat) the back of ur knee to top of the neck and add about 4 inches to get the height u need plus extra sewing room.
For arms the best way is to (excuse for sounding rude but its essental) meassure from you wrist to your nipple. This gives you comfortable room to move ir arms without being tight in any pose and add 2 inches for sewing room.
Then to get the "thickness" you need just messure AROUND the elbow (wrist will be the samenas elbow on coat for that baggy anime effect) , the bicep, your chest area, you shoulders (from outside of shoulder to outside shoulder other side) and your waist and add upto 4 inches for sewing room..
Once all cut to shape and trim any excess after sewn together....
Good luck

Can you please tell me if the sleeve is made out of 2 pieces and if so how did you make the part that seems to be the top of it? Thank you.

Its one piece make the shape shown then fold it together the bigger bit will be obviouswhen u put it on the coat .... alterntivly fold and sew together first and cut a diaganal piece from the top cuting down about 4 to 6 inches (this messurment is from the tip of the outside of ur shoulder to under ur armpit so it all depends on ur own sizes

I don't understand the left side right side bit. Where the arm holes are at..where it says 20, 6, 8&13..how does that work? If the total is supposed to be 20, how is there an 8 and 13?

Sorry i made corrections when writing this and erased a further example .. its allrelating to ur height and shoulder width... my examole went off my shoulder a total of 20 and is suppose to say 8 and 12 (the 13 was for an earlier 7 plus 13 but i forgot to change it) but the drawing i admit isnt clear that 13 area isnt the small bit the arrows are on... its the total from that first peice to the end where the arrows actually are.... that bit wants to be smaller but i cant give u a messure ment for that as it all depends on how ur body is... if u want a loose fit keep it at 12 but if u want a tighter fit u vut a bit more off making u bring it closer and tighter... if u want it like the anime (super tight fit) id probebly go about 8 or 9 inchice on that part and not as deep on the cut where it says 6 super tight would be about 4 to 5 inches.... hope this helps... tip b4 doing tjis on expensive fabric either do it on cheep fabric or paper to get correct messurments to do final product

To futher explain the 20 is the faboc b4 its cut the 8 is from ur neck to the tip of ur shoulder the 6 is to go to under arm and the 13 ( which needs altering depending on ur messurments) needs to be able to reach ur spine not just the side of ur neck.. thats wat makes the unique curve of his coat

This looks very helpful, but could you please tell me what is written on the shoulder piece above the neck hole where it says 4" and below the top 20"? It looks like it says something about 9" and then 12", but I can't read it. Thanks!

Sorry for the late reply... yes that is an indication for where the gap should apear and extend out to... so start the vut at the 9 inch and 12 inch line then cut in abit then create the circle by extending outward abit to about the 8 or 7 inch line and the 13 or 14 inch line.... it was put only as a rough guide... just messure urself from shoulder to shoulder add 3 inches to it then cut as instructed for the neck line its simple enough but can be tricky if u dont get messurements right so practise on cheap fabric first!!!

How do you attach the right and left side of the coat? Is it straight sides together or as shown in the picture?

As shown in the pictures as the waist part needs to be thinner then the bottom for that tight fit look like in the show
