This is a true J. Crew heritage piece, I always loved the idea of the warm and soft fabric being made in Italy at the Nello Gori mill for J. Crew, always seen the stadium cloth coats, the double cloths, andover peacoats and etc. Never bit the bullet because I felt I have enough coats and I liked J. Crew for other things besides coats.
Finally, decided to buy it on sale and for a good price as a cardholder for about $170 and change. Its still on sale here, the Cocoon Coat in Italian Stadium-Cloth Wool.
Its so sophisticated, soft, warm, the pockets so gorgeously positioned, and a great work-transitioning to-play, going out to STK be home at 11pm, kind of coat.
Even though its a heather grey color, its quite vibrant and bright! Its a lovely monochrome hue and the fabric isnt bulky that you can basically wear it with anything! No more mushroom lumpy bigga chic.
Kaye the coat looks great on you... very pretty color and such a stylish cut... It is always great to find a good quality coat for an great price xox
