Women's duffle coat

Are you tired of wearing inconspicuous outerwear and blending into the crowd? Women's jacket with a duffle coat closure will definitely catch the eye of others. In cut, it practically does not differ from alternative elements of the wardrobe - a classic hood, large pockets, patches on the sleeves and a yoke on the back.

The history of the duffle coat dates back to the 19th century, when the British tailor John Partridge decided to sew a jacket - a coat made of thick woolen fabric with a fleece brought from the European city of Duffle.

2. The hood - a rather spacious cut made it possible to wear it even over a headdress. It was easily unfastened, and the clasp around the neck protected from the frosty wind.
3. Pockets - sewn over the coat, which made it as easy as possible to access them.Could be both with valves, and without.

An oblong button, resembling a sharp fang, is not sewn to the fabric, as is usually done, but to a special textile loop.
