Where can I find a coat like this?

[jkc350z]

Looking for an overcoat like the black one. Smaller lapels, slim fitting, and falls at the knees or right above...not too much higher. Thanks guys

anyone?

If you are going cheap you can try Merc, a step up is Charles Tyrwhitt, beyond that you have many more options. It is called a covert coat.

You could also try Club Monaco - they've been doing similar coats for a couple of years now.

I think the overcoats are still on sale at the hickey style site, altho no black to my knowledge. trim cut, and the length you are looking for, I believe.

I like the lighter grey one, myself.

thanks, im looking for a black one. Will merc ship to the us? the usa online store doesnt have the covert coats.

also, most covert coats im seeing have three buttoms..do any have 2 buttons and thinner lapels? i really like that look in the original pic. correct me if i am wrong in thinking that that coat is a 2button with thinner lapels....also lookin for wool look and fabric.

Plenty of stores carry the full Merc line in the US. Kuhlman in Seattle has them so I am sure if you look at stores in your area (provided you live in a medium to large city) you will find some place that has them. Try www.99xnyc.com. I don't know about two buttons. It is technically an overcoat so I doubt you are going to find one with less than three. Maybe you need to go bespoke.

wuts bespoke? sorry im new

it's most likely a 3 button coat. pretty rare to see a 2 button.

i see...i just love how it tapers in and the length is perfect...most coats i keep finding are 3/4 that go right below the butt

I have a Caruso (black & grey herringbone) and that would be an excellent choice, very slim fit and narrow lapels.
