About MeThis swing-style wool coat features a faint wide blue check and deep turn back cuffs.

The coat is the perfect shape to accommodate fashions of the time, which featured long trailing skirts.

The coat is registered as 'The Climatic'; a shower-proof coat that is claimed to be 'a shield for all weathers'. This is due to the coat being made from wool, which contains natural waterproofing agents, which was very useful before manmade fabrics were invented.
