Greetings, gentlemen!
Need some advises about an overcoat. Found two great pieces:
Ermenegildo Zegna vintage double breasted (80% wool 20% cashmere ) and Ede &Ravenscroft double breasted (50% wool 25% lambswool 25% cashmere). Both are same size and same color, but Zegna costs about 40% less.
Thanks for advices!

Which one looks best? Which one fits you? Which one do you LIKE the most?

Material compositions and brand doesn't say much to base advice on. Things like cut, the construction, and the weight and weave of the fabric all factor in.
