Reviewed: one winter coat, verified purchase, worn daily from November until whenever March gives up.
Rating: four stars out of five.
Pros: warm enough to survive a bus stop, with pockets deep enough to lose your keys forever.
Cons: swishes when I walk, and I now look like a sleeping bag that got a job.
Would buy again. Already did, in a second color.
Here's the thing about winter coats. You pick one, and for five months it becomes your entire personality. The Sleeping Bag Puffer person has given up on looking cool and couldn't be happier about it. The Sharp Wool Peacoat person is freezing slightly but looks fantastic, a trade they made on purpose. Then there's the Denial Denim Jacket crowd, standing in the snow insisting it isn't that cold, ears turning a color doctors would like to discuss.
So which coat are you, deep down, where the lint lives? Tell us how you handle icy mornings and snowball ambushes, and we'll match you with your outerwear soulmate. Zero stars for anyone who blames the coat.
