In what sense would a cape be more practical than a coat? Or even equally practical?
Mind you, I'm not against the whole cape thing. I'm just trying to understand the appeal beyond the quirky stylishness (which is fine).
A cape or cloak will shed more water than an overcoat of the same cloth, because it has less surface area and fewer seams.
