So. Winter is here. As usual, the hunt for jacket begin. this year i want something i would think would be simple to find. A A wool jacket. Well, not so much..

What i want is a overcoat-kind-a-style jacket, but not too long. im 5´9 and want something 33-35". I want it to have raglan sleeves, and hidden pockets. Last one i can oversee. Buttons can be hidden or not, and i want a dress-collar, if thats even a word. Something similar to the photo below.

I dont care if its a brand or vintage. Been looking at ebay, etsy and so on, and everything is very long, or just plain wrong. Its mindbuffling for me, this is coats i see everywhere, so why cant i find one. Ive Looked everywhere :slayer:

What name would a coat like this go under to help me search for it easier? Help ME!

Wrong section. you want "Mens CLothing". You may want to try Car Coat or simply overcoat and try to find one that meets your criteria.
