Made in a short run, in the four shades listed.
A flat viewing, with the agent watching
Viewing a flat is half an hour of walking through somebody else’s rooms with an agent half a step behind you, keeping his coat on because you have kept yours on. Indoors, at that distance, a coat is judged on its shoulders and its pockets rather than on its length.
Gathered shoulders give the top of the coat a soft lift instead of a flat pad, and welt pockets keep the hip clean because nothing is sitting on the surface of the cloth. Halfway round, the agent starts quoting you the better flat on his list. People decide what you can afford from your outerwear long before you say anything.
A coat is the only thing you wear that strangers quietly price.
Gathered shoulders, welt pockets
The coat is single-breasted and closes on two front buttons under a notched lapel, cut to around the thigh rather than down to the knee. At the top the shoulders are gathered, so the sleeve head takes in a little fullness instead of running flat into the seam.
The pockets are welted, set into the body rather than patched onto it, which keeps the front of the coat uninterrupted. At each cuff a tab buttons across, so the sleeve can be closed down at the wrist. It goes over jeans and it goes over something far more formal.

A tailored shoulder slows the run
Gathered shoulders and welted pockets both have to be set by hand, and that is what holds the output down on a coat like this. Four shades out of a small total means none of them is deeply stocked, and a return of the same run is not guaranteed.
Take the shade while all four are listed. Fourteen days from delivery covers trying it on over what you already wear to work.
