Advent Calendar | #16 Patrik Ervell - Overcoat

It's very rare that you fall in love with a wool coat. The best ones are usually the dull looking ones, unfortunately, as any experimenting tends to feel very gimmicky. Leave it to one of the most inventive designer's of modern menswear, Patrik Ervell, to make one that is far from gimmicky but still will set you apart from the pack.

Funnily enough, coming from the master of modern, these have the look of something of days of yore. It might be the large pockets or the club collar that might seem better suited on a shirt that does the trick, either way this coat oozes a type of elegance most people, including myself, thought died a long time ago. The buttoning is slightly off-centered, which kind of throws you off at first 'til you get used to it. Though the fit is roomy, it's also, true to Patrik Ervell's aesthetics, perfectly tailored. I prefer the brown version, but it's also available in grey.
