Hey everyone, I'm back with another question on what style(s) and color of item I should consider. We're coming up on fall, and I'm going to be in the market for a new coat. My current one is a black el cheapo overcoat from Macy's. It's about 10 years old, but should have been replaced 5 year ago.
I'm looking for a good do-it-all coat. I work in a Midwestern U.S. city. The winters vary from year to year, but generally, snowfall and moisture are modest in the winter. Highs tend to range in the 30s and 40s during deep winter, with a week long dip into the 10s or single digits. I work an office job, and tend to wear suits and jackets 2-3 times a week. I'm mostly going from car to building and building to car, with only occasional walking around in the elements. I'm probably out more on the weekends, though the spread out, suburban area I live and work in mostly has me in the car.
From my limited research, a trench coat is probably it warm enough for the coldest parts of winter. I was thinking an overcoat, probably in a tan color. What are your thoughts?
