I own both, overcoats and a peacoat and I can definitely say the peacoat is much warmer than the overcoats...its heavier and thicker fabric than the overcoat... If its really cold I go for the peacoat.
sorry i just realized I bombarded you with comments in different videos and you answered them all, thanks...none of them was intended to be bad critics at all :) you have a new subscriber.
There are so many fashion guide/whatever youtubers that I've seen but after skimming through a bunch of yours you might be one of my faves. You're very bubbly and fun without coming off as a tryhard. Good job! Imma buy a coat now, dgaf if it's summer.
The problem with the peacoat and the suit is that the peacoat is cut too tight and is made to be worn over a sweater at most. Regulation peacoat can easily cover a suit jacket though.
Hey Ashley, I am 5ft 9 guy with a tan skin color. I want to get an overcoat, but I feel it will make me even shorter as it will not elongate my legs. So do you recommend this type of coat to me? Also if I do get this coat, what color is best for my skin tone? Thanks and keep up the great work :)
Some comments ... If you wear suits in addition to an overcoat you need a trenchcoat (for rainy wet weather but not cold enough for snow) . Most guys I know prefer black peacoats not navy. Should try on peacoat with thick turtleneck sweater for fitting.
Lovely video. Instead of a peacoat this Winter I went with a wool bomber jacket in navy colour. I love peacoats but Im not sure I have the height to pull them off 🤔 Most are really long. These Topman wool trousers however look awesome 😀
Can you wear a pocket square with an overcoat? One overcoat I bought last winter, came with a pocket square and I just used it with my blazers, but could you wear it with an overcoat?
I've had a duffle coat for awhile, but it's wearing out and the toggles have fallen off. Maybe it's time to grab a pea coat, especially since the prices are beginning to drop. Any advice on where I can get a nice fitted pea coat? (I want to avoid boxy, especially since I'm only 5'7"). You're the best -- keep the videos coming!
Hi, I looked at the article and there are links to 2 different Burberry Peacoats. There is a link in the body of the text and another link at the bottom of the article. Which one is in the video and do you recommend one of them more?
Hi, why not the camel colour for your first overcoat? I mean I already have so much navy stuff underneath (often). Why also make the overcoat navy, even if it's the first?
QUESTION!! Hi Ashley I been having fun watching your videos. Now i have a question for you. What kind of jacket would you recommend for rainy weather and still look classy as far as style. Any suggestions?
Hey Ashley! What is your opinion on the Ossain Herringbone Peacoat from Ted Baker? I'm very much considering buying it, since it's probably my favourite looking peacoat out there. And keep up the good work with your videos! Been learning a lot.
whats with the tie bar on a three piece suit? you are only meant to have a single method of holding in place. Other than that it was a really good video
Desperate for help! Where can I buy quality overcoats that are below the knee in length? I have asked numerous reddit pages and searched dozen of fashion webpages yet to find an overcoat that is below the knee, in Business style black wool etc. Is the only answer going bespoke?
consider a classic green or navy blue loden from Austria (or Germany) They are worn long, last for ever and are very flattering with the rear vent. It exists also in dark grey. I have three !
Pea coats (80% wool and above) are amazing, they were designed for navy officers who spent their time out in the cold oceans with constant wind chill after all!
The only thing I would disagree on is the color of a 1st overcoat. I think it should be camel cuz it’s the most versatile. It can be dressed up or down most easily, & it matches everything
A grey overcoat would be the most versatile, because you could wear it with jeans and a sweater or throw it over you white tie ensemble if you were to go to the vienna opera ball for some reason.
no love for the duffel coat? i sometimes see guys here wearing a duffel coat over a suit. usually these are as long as an overcoat, and in a dark color. charcoal, black or navy with black subdued toggles.
thanks for your quick reply! I really enjoy how you go into detail explaining the styling for different body sizes. that's what sets your videos apart from other style guides.
Ashley I am a 45 year old black man who works in law enforcement. I have been a soldier for years and could have cared less about fashion and style. One day I looked into the mirror and realized that I am done with looking like I'm always ready to fight a war. Now that I am in my transformation (I've recently lost 27 lbs) stage, I have been using your videos to learn how to upgrade my fashionable weapons. Although I don't get to wear suits and dress shoes in my line of work, I do love the look. I want to ask you, should I buy less formal fashion? My money is tight (remember I am in law enforcement and local government at that). Also, I go to Pintrest for fashion ideas after viewing your videos. How do I find the clothes from Pintrest? I know I should use it for inspiration but sometime I see an exact piece of clothing that I must have. For example: pin.it/jAHxRHy Please help. Thank you
Sorry but I disagree. Just bought my first overcoat which has a Burgundy (deep dark red) colour and has a lot of accesoires (epaulettes, belt, cuffs) and it's double breasted. It looks stunning and because it's well cut (it's from Burberry) it doesn't look wrong if I unbutton it.
At 6.31 begins the human being we need. If we were to accept ourselves as human beings with all our faults, we would not have to trim ourselves to perfection. An entirely new serenity would turn human encounters into an act of esteem that does not correspond to a traditionally or commercially generated ideal, but to who we are. In this society, however, we must never be what we are.
If I were taking those trousers to the office, I would be itching all day. The AC would be switched to 25 or 26 degrees celcius. It would be unbearable. It's always women turning the AC up. I am reaching the conclusion that, summer or winter, I need to wear the same except for a full length overcoat during winter.
OK, your video accidentally came up after another and I will give you constructive critiscm. The first few minutes thought was a child station then saw you serious and gave good insight but what's up with you and Hilfiger? You need to offer more options then same shoes and same shirts. You have to remember most people watching a video like this are pretty clueless but have an idea what they want. Anyway, I like you, and will subscribe. Just don't forget Christmas is about Christ, had to add that.
If you are a celebrity and you need this lady to help you dress, then you are in trouble full stop, she is so immensely annoying. I would like to lock her in a room with Liam Gallagher, a man who does know how to dress himself ,for half an hour and see what's left of her😂😂😂

Being a fashion guru I can think of nothing more beautiful than an overcoat or pea coat over a classic suit. Simple, refined and gorgeous.
I own both, overcoats and a peacoat and I can definitely say the peacoat is much warmer than the overcoats...its heavier and thicker fabric than the overcoat... If its really cold I go for the peacoat.
no no, that's the point of my comment. I find peacoats to be much thicker and heavier than overcoats hence why they are warmer...
sorry i just realized I bombarded you with comments in different videos and you answered them all, thanks...none of them was intended to be bad critics at all :) you have a new subscriber.
I cringe at businessman who try to keep warm during NYC winters. I've never seen one warm enough.

Awesome...I already have a black & camel overcoat, this video made me decide to buy a dark navy pea coat....Thanks Ashley
What about the vents? Should I get a peacoat with single, double or no vent?
THE PEACOATS ARE THE VERY BEST THERE IS IN A COAT! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
The problem with the peacoat and the suit is that the peacoat is cut too tight and is made to be worn over a sweater at most. Regulation peacoat can easily cover a suit jacket though.
I am looking for that exact Single-breasted overcoat Camel colour in this video. What brand is it? and where can I buy it?
i live where no snow or even winter but i want overcoats and peacoats!
Buy a thin overcoat. You could also go for a trench coat.
Navy Peacoat is that one overcoat that look great on Any guy !!!
What about color army green for overcoat? I think it is a color as well as camel that can go with almost anything :)
Thank You. I like the Burberry peacoat. Is it possible that you share the chest measurement of the model and size of the peacoat he is wearing?
Ashely can you please name all of the colors of overcoat?
Great video, really helped a lot .
for the snow areas, why not a duffel coat or bridge coat?
Hey Ashley, I am 5ft 9 guy with a tan skin color. I want to get an overcoat, but I feel it will make me even shorter as it will not elongate my legs. So do you recommend this type of coat to me? Also if I do get this coat, what color is best for my skin tone?
Thanks and keep up the great work :)
What brand is good to buy from for overcoat and peacoat?
Some comments ... If you wear suits in addition to an overcoat you need a trenchcoat (for rainy wet weather but not cold enough for snow) . Most guys I know prefer black peacoats not navy. Should try on peacoat with thick turtleneck sweater for fitting.

These Topman wool trousers however look awesome 😀
I bought an overcoat that's a bit too short for me on the arms (shoulders are perfect). Is there a way to elongate the arms ?
I didn't know where I should post this question, but can do you a video about vests and the different types there are?
Can you wear a pocket square with an overcoat? One overcoat I bought last winter, came with a pocket square and I just used it with my blazers, but could you wear it with an overcoat?
+Ashley Weston Good to know! I was just wondering, because the chest pocket really looks like it's made for a pocket square!
I've had a duffle coat for awhile, but it's wearing out and the toggles have fallen off. Maybe it's time to grab a pea coat, especially since the prices are beginning to drop.
Any advice on where I can get a nice fitted pea coat? (I want to avoid boxy, especially since I'm only 5'7").

The link to fit guide for coats isn't working :(
Classic styling choices, your suggested combinations at the end 10/10
Uhm I live in Canada with -20 winters what's good?
Canada goose...function pretty much dominates over fashion at this point.
@@bygnahzdivad I see people in NYC wear Canada Goose. I'm pretty sure they're brand driven because NYC rarely hits that low.
QUESTION!! Hi Ashley I been having fun watching your videos. Now i have a question for you. What kind of jacket would you recommend for rainy weather and still look classy as far as style. Any suggestions?
Trench coat
This is The Best Men's fashion RUclips channel.This channel needs more attention.
What you think of Duffle?
Hey Ashley!

Desperate for help!
Where can I buy quality overcoats that are below the knee in length? I have asked numerous reddit pages and searched dozen of fashion webpages yet to find an overcoat that is below the knee, in Business style black wool etc.
Is the only answer going bespoke?
llIH go thrift shopping. I literally just found a $2000 overcoat for $15. I found a $300 pecoat for $25.
+Ty Smith where have you found them ??
Thrift shops. I started thrifting hard after watching these.
Ty Smith Thanks for the tip!
consider a classic green or navy blue loden from Austria (or Germany) They are worn long, last for ever and are very flattering with the rear vent. It exists also in dark grey. I have three !
Why no mention of the duffle coat? I live in Michigan and it's a great casual option that keeps me warm, given its 80% wool
I recently picked up a camel colored overcoat from topman. I love it, but can it be dressed down with dark denim? Does it have to be with a suit?
My peacoat is 3/4 length. I wear it like an overcoat
How does a Peacoat or overcoat deal with windchill?
Pea coats (80% wool and above) are amazing, they were designed for navy officers who spent their time out in the cold oceans with constant wind chill after all!
So it's a no go over coat with a solid tshit?
Why does the guy wear the peacoat with the collar up looking like Hela from Thor Ragnorak???
Hi, what kind/color messenger bags go well with peacoats?
Great video!
I really like your tips on coats, I just learned a lot from this video today 👍
5 years later and this video is all someone needs to know to buy a coat.
As per usual you have all the good advice! Tx
Foarte interesant ! ❤❤❤
Wow. She’s pretty 😍😍😍
Thank you Ashley for this video, I got the Ludlow topcoat and wanted to get a budget option
The only thing I would disagree on is the color of a 1st overcoat. I think it should be camel cuz it’s the most versatile. It can be dressed up or down most easily, & it matches everything

Hello, you're funky. I saw antiche your videos, but didn't expected you blonde😂 you convinced me to descrive.
do overcoats look good on shorter people? i am 1.76m
Ashley you just got Favorited, liked, and subscribed to.
no love for the duffel coat? i sometimes see guys here wearing a duffel coat over a suit. usually these are as long as an overcoat, and in a dark color. charcoal, black or navy with black subdued toggles.
thanks for your quick reply! I really enjoy how you go into detail explaining the styling for different body sizes. that's what sets your videos apart from other style guides.
Okay, I live in South Florida... its hot ALL the time. But i really like over coats. :,(
Ashley, what do you think of Stone grey peacoat for my first one? Thank you. Should I go for charcoal/navy instead?
I could get the navy peacoat from Burberry, but... I like black too much (for a coat). :|
What about a car coat?
Very good, thanks :D
I want you to stop watching this video right now-
Me- okay, exits video and clicks something else
There's also a Topcoat!!!! That's the mixture of a Peacoat and Overcoat.

she looks pretty in this video

If you watch Ashley’s videos in chronological order…you can actually witness her somehow de-aging over the course of 7 years. 🤯
There are Peacots and peacoats around. Better find a US navy copy classic one and not some ersatz version.
If I were taking those trousers to the office, I would be itching all day.
The AC would be switched to 25 or 26 degrees celcius. It would be unbearable. It's always women turning the AC up.
I am reaching the conclusion that, summer or winter, I need to wear the same except for a full length overcoat during winter.
How the hell is this girl a celebrity stylist 😂😂😂 for men😂😂😂
She needs a female hairstylist to tell he that Asian girls should never dye their hair blonde. Looks terrible.
Fashion advice not classic style advice...
What kind of bullshit is this?
OK, your video accidentally came up after another and I will give you constructive critiscm.
