So for a change I’m not asking questions on leather jackets!
I’m a sick of the cold rainy weather in London - for work, I wear a Paul Smith mohair overcoat everyday - with a big backpack on it (yes I know it’s not good for the coat.). I’ve been doing this for over a decade and this nice coat is beginning to show light sign of wear on the back. Mohair wear very hard though.
My primary complains about this coat is - 1) it’s single breasted so I always need to wear a scarf; 2) it’s a ‘city coat’ thickness and despite it’s a posh 80% mohair and 20% alpaca, I wish it’s thicker and heavier.
So I want to look for a really heavy wool coat, long coat style to knee length, double breasted military trench style, that can wrap my chest and neck up with the lapels when needed.
Don’t mind if it’s new or used. Preferably with a belt to cinch up when windy.
Recommendations and pictures would be most appreciated.
