I'm in the market for *one* new winter coat this season, and I want it to be as practical as possible. Right now I have lots of impractical winter coats (too thin, too nice, too long); what I want is a single, stylish coat that can take a lot of abuse in rain, snow, and travel. If I ball it up and stuff it into the overhead compartment of a train I won't have to worry about it.
Ideally, if I go on a long trip abroad, for example, this would be the one coat I would bring. But I would also be able to wear it on weekends around town (Boston, USA).
Does such a single coat exist? I was thinking of the Barbour Beaufort in green with a lining and hood; or of the You Must Create reversible coat (at Steven Alan), which is a raincoat on one side and a topcoat on the other. What else is out there?
