Just picked up a black Peacoat two weeks ago. Very nice and got it on sale. Which is hard to do when u are 6'6". Good video, us guys usually don't understand how to fit an overcoat.
Hey....bringing Rodger on was NICE touch!! I've gotten many compliments on my new PeaCoat. I got the idea for it right here on this channel. Women do love how it fits and looks. Had my pea coat on the other day, and girl I've known for awhile who I was talking to at the bus stop, all of a sudden brushed her hand across the lapel of the coat and gave me a hug...lol (Really!)....lol I was like...wtf? It was a nice gesture on her part. I know it was the coat.
Solid Video Jeff. Pea coats are very versatile from casual to more formal. I agree Navy is the way to go. I also agree that you want wool...take the time and spend a little more. It’s well worth it.
Bought a new real pea coat at a military surplus store, had it tailored a tad, it looks great, ladies love it especially when I wear a colorful scarf or a nice turtle neck...and my trusted English tweed ivy flat cap...lmao
Grab one, it's classic! You can be grown and sexy with it (dress shoes) or be hip hop (boots n sneakers) with it. I learned that from the Chicago brothers!
Great video discussing materials, colors and fit. I got my black pea coat for 10 years now. I love to wear it with suits, sports jacket and chunky sweaters. Grab one from the Gap or Banana Republic.
Very true about the fit and lining. I’ve got a navy one that checks all the boxes. Can you throw me a salute? I’ve been sharing your channel with my clients.
Just found myself unconsciously reciting your intro and realized I’ve been doing it for a while now. 😅Been looking for a Peacoat for this freezing a$$ NY Winter and our snow next week. Great topic Jeff.
Question: found vintage navy pea coat in size 52, which is what I wear in a suit. Does the military size chart match conventional suit sizes? Please advise.
Thanks for the bonus tip! I had no idea to leave the bottom button undone. It's cold here in Brooklyn and I'm ROCKING a peacoat I got from eBay ($90). Size 38, Kersey wool, eight (!) buttons on front. Pre-WWII. "NAVAL CLOTHING FACTORY" label (used in 1947 and earlier) inside and extra stitching 3 inches above each cuff. It's best coat I own and never want to take it off.
I have one more advice. Many pea coats are available with metal buttons. It is better to avoid them and get one with plastic buttons or to keep in mind to replace metal buttons with plastic. Metal buttons in pea coats, have the tendency to cat the thread very often, because unlike buttons in e.g. blazers, they are stretched more.
got a navy blue pea coat, charcoal wool overcoat and a black peacoat this season, so i should be good in those areas for several years.... well perhaps a camel overcoat next season.
Have you’ve done a segment on winter gloves? If not, that would be a nice category to cover. From bespoke to store bought, types of leathers, styles and linings. Could be fun and informative.
Are there brands out there for people with broad back and shoulders? Problem I have with pea coats is that it's meant for the average and more slim slender builds. As a gym rat, the shoulder, arms and back restricts movement and couldn't wear layers underneath. If I choose a size bigger, I lose aesthetic & style making the coat look longer.
Mr Jeff can a tailor fix that tapper you mention on a coat? My peacoat does not have that slight taper that you mention other than that I think it fits.
I just ordered my very first drank navy peacoat so I"m definitely looking for ideas on how to rock it. Any advice as to what NOT to wear with a peacoat? Especifically the navy colored one?
Hey man, i checked my peacoat it is only 52 percent wool. I cant return it what do i do? Is this a bad thing, i guess it just wont keep me warm, meaning i can wear in spring?
M. Jeff, I've a six-button pie coat with grey pewter eagle with thirteen-star 7/8" buttons, one which I lost & find only cheap knockoffs. Would this be a 1950's-era & would you have a genuine button source? BTW, tomorrow I am going to try wearing it with my red sweater & a white-collared shirt under it with jeans.
I bought an original Sterling peacoat 46R seems to fit well but I would normally take a 42! It comes down to roughly the top of my thumb knuckle. Sterlings are a trim military fit so a larger size was necessary. A little snug with a sweater underneath. Your thoughts?
Love the peacoat on a man. Great info!! Classy..versatile etc.. all and then some of what you mentioned. Great look bro😘 huge dog.. yeah ya best have it right lol lol
Living in Texas. Unless we have another cold front before spring, I will not have had a chance to wear my navy peacoat or my camel coat this season. I have too many coats and jackets for a southerner.
I'm a tall and slim guy and I just got myself a stunning peacoat. The only problem is that while it fits perfectly (or very close to it) on my shoulder it feels a bit too wide on the sides and especially in the armpit area if I raise my hands. Do you think it could be tailored to fit me properly or if I should take it back (it's a rather expensive one)?
Im allergic to wool, that aside, some peacoats has lost their quality. I bought a peacoat from American Eagle one time it was the best. Took it back because of my allergic reaction😔, then bought it again the next year 🤬🤬... Amy ideas?
Yes Jeff I truly agree with You on the type of PeaCoat that we Men should have, I just love my Black Wool PeaCoat which is well over 30 years Old which I still have and may pass it on to my Nephew??/
I know this is an old video style OG but I just moved from Florida to Wisconsin and it is cold AF up here so I have to get a whole new wardrobe since I'm not used to this cold. I usually wear an XL but would it be wise to get an XXL size to layer up in negative temps or would it look too big?
awesome vid holmes, i was wondering how should the buttons feel closed up? i have a pea coat myself that fits good and all, just my only concern is that when i try to spread my arms and such, the buttons start getting a bit pulled and i can feel/ see this goin on, is that normal?
I have a gray pea coat and bought years ago for a steal. Fits great in the shoulder and chest but not the sleeve length. The pea coat only came in regular and needed a short. When my preschool students see me in it they yell out, “where’s you hands.” Lol
Yo Jeff, I'm going through my closet this summer and I ran across my peacoat. Can I have a peacoat tailored? I've lost weight it looks to big in me now.
Jeff, would you recommend a peacoat to a relatively bigger, teddy-bearish body type guy like me (I usually wear overcoats or lighter parkas)? Also that doggo is just beautiful, she stole your show for a few seconds for me lol.
I found this channel when I was a bachelor a few years ago now I’m married I love this channel and Jeff…salute my G!
Love the look of the peacoat with the red sweater and white oxford. Fresh look, Jeff. Salute!
Thanks Ryan!
I pulled the trigger on a black pea I ordered on e Bay yesterday. This style of coat will never go out of style! I can’t wait to get it!

Just picked up a black Peacoat two weeks ago. Very nice and got it on sale. Which is hard to do when u are 6'6". Good video, us guys usually don't understand how to fit an overcoat.
I also downsized by one full size when buying my peacoat.
nice Joseph!
Great advice, Jeff. I agree with you Jeff, the Peacoat is a timeless overcoat. Great casual wear.
I love mine . I got it on sale at old Navy last winter . It is just like the one that bond had in the movie Skyfall .

Thanks Solomon!
Pea coat information verified. Salute Jeff!
Salute my G!
Just a piece of advice the Original Navy Peacoat can be purchased at Schottnyc. An its a "must" for the buttons to have the anchors.
So should I buy a peacoat one size big or my original size I'm a size large but always get an extra large
Thanks for tips.
My pea-coat has a button on the neck. I was wondering what is was for..?
No problem!
The peacoat is always a win! Ted Baker makes some nice ones too
Ted Baker does make great ones!
Where can I get a pea coat from I’ve looked all around in Baltimore dc va can’t find them no where
old navy, banana republic, gap, Jos a bank....
Surplus shops in Annapolis
Can you recommend any companies that sell fitted pea-coats? Thank you.
I really like this one

nice suggestion D!
The Style O.G. Lets get to it!
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to pick me up a peakcoat one day and have a blessed day
Same to you Michael!

What about the back? When ever I wear it the cut in the back separates a little.
What jacket is that on video? Manufacturer?
I have the longer peacoat is this one not acceptable??
Jeff great style advice my man!!!!!!!
The Bomb!
Nice Review Jeff, I was checking some at Macy's, what's this with the hoodie attached. I gotta have the Original, I'll keep looking. SALUTE!!!
Salute BIG!
Mr Jeff can a tailor fix that tapper you mention on a coat? My peacoat does not have that slight taper that you mention other than that I think it fits.
Go head Jeff! keep it going.
Salute Shalita!
Silly question ,What is the proper name of the red swear?
Cable knit
I just ordered my very first drank navy peacoat so I"m definitely looking for ideas on how to rock it. Any advice as to what NOT to wear with a peacoat? Especifically the navy colored one?
not really, they go with almost anything!
Hey man, i checked my peacoat it is only 52 percent wool. I cant return it what do i do? Is this a bad thing, i guess it just wont keep me warm, meaning i can wear in spring?
not necessarily, if it's still warm, you can rock it..
Another great one bro👊🏽🙏🏾🤩
appreciate it John!
M. Jeff, I've a six-button pie coat with grey pewter eagle with thirteen-star 7/8" buttons, one which I lost & find only cheap knockoffs. Would this be a 1950's-era & would you have a genuine button source? BTW, tomorrow I am going to try wearing it with my red sweater & a white-collared shirt under it with jeans.
Great advice OG! Salute brother 👍
Salute Adams!
More videos with your dog! 😁

Just got my first Peacoat; Men’s Wearhouse
