The perfect rain/wind coat
This is my ultimate favorite coat! I have just bought my second one in burgundy red color. I bought my first one 5 years ago in deep blue color and I still wear it. It a little bit worn because I wear it every spring and fall season. The fabric is gorgeous, lightweight, quality sewing, quality zippers, very stylish, comfortable, breathable. My favorite in this coat is the diagonal zipper with overlapping fabric that I love when the weather is windy or cold. The hoodie is enough big to cover me in rain. I highly recommend it, it’s worth the money!
