No breast pocket. Storm pockets. Reversible collar or shawl collar with fur. Linen lining. Should be nice.

Le Canadien
This is what I am giving my tailor to make this summer. It is a variant of the British Warm and was popular in the 30s. I have a stout piece of Loden for it or maybe the Everest Cashmere would do well.

A fur collar could be most impressive. What type of fur? (Is bear sufficiently 'Canadien'?)
I decided I needed a real cold weather coat some years ago. Since we so rarely get truly arctic weather in the UK I thought a Swedish M1909 military surplus would do the trick. It has since got much more wear than Id anticipated largely, I think, on account of the rather dramatic (sheepskin) collar.
