The Overcoat Thread

[clee1982]

Speaking of cold climate, it could be useful to have a leather coat with warming fleece inside.

Speaking of beefy stuff, don’t even recall ever seen this at Paul Stuart (or anything made in Denmark) so got to be decently old

Awesome coat and it wears quite lightly. I sold one of these to someone on here a while ago (pretty sure it's on the sw&s waywt) then got lucky and found another one and I'm definitely keeping it this time.

I kept forgetting to tag you ITT. I'd love to see your coat collection.

RE: Hairy brown coats.

Here's a quick and dirty short of the alpaca coat I bought off etsy.

It's a replica of some women's brand. The coat is tight across the waist unfortunately, lots of pulling at the button with a sports coat on underneath. Short sleeves too, I'll wear gloves to make up for that. Overall, not oversized like I was expecting.

So it has some flaws for me, but the fabric feels real nice. Alpaca/wool/silk blend. It looks like one would overheat in this, but it's the opposite. I wore this inside for 20 minutes and somehow didn't sweat or overheat. Supposedly alpaca is a great fibre for thermoregulation.

It also nails the overall teddy coat vibes I was wanting. The enormous lapels and lapped seams are awesome.

Is this branded? What search terms for you use to find it? Looks great

I like it and it looks good on you, but it certainly would look better, if you would take the care to style it properly. Bare legs are really a turnoff.

The -26 C was in Chicago when I was there in the 70s and 80s. Once it was -26 F or -32 C.
at night. During that time I went X-Country skiing in Wisconsin on a sunny day when it was
-10. And this was southern Wisconsin- the Kettle Moraine area. None of this compares to
Vorkuta, the notorious Gulag town and site of an inmate uprising after the death of Stalin
and arrest of Beria. I doubt that the inmates were concerned with questions like "Ulster
vs. Balmacaan."

Vorkuta - Wikipedia

I gotta tell you, I didn't see Vorkuta coming, after...balmacaan.

Educational segue.

No one ever sees Vorkuta coming. Like " No one ever expects the Spanish Inquisition"

Enjoying a New Year walk in my Camelhair Overcoat. Winter in South Germany usually is rather warm.
