Greatcoat

Once again, Townsends has sold me a quality product. I received my great coat quickly, it fits perfectly, and it looks terrific. Thank you to all the folks at Townsends!

I was telling some friends and family about this coat when I ordered it and they all had their doubts about a $400+ coat. But once it delivered and I wore it out everyone told me the coat looks to be worth the money.
It’s thick, heavy, warm, and durable. The Navy color is what I went with and am so happy it doesn’t look too cartoonish. It is the best coat of my collection and is something I hope to heirloom haha.
I do wish it had an inside chest pocket but I am literally over the moon about this product and am actively pointing people in the direction of this website.

My Great Coat arrived today. I have purchased other such coats online from other sources. I can attest that Townsend's Great coat surpasses all others for its authenticity and superb quality. My hat is off to Elyza for her expertise.

First, a disclosure: I am no longer actively involved in reenactment or living history. Things I've ordered here are for wearing in normal, day-to-day activities. That said, the experience left me with an appreciation for classical things.

This coat is superb! Looking for a knee-length wool coat that isn't made with children's proportions in mind is already hard enough, but this is just. . . wow. The cut, the seams, the lay and drape, the cotton lining, the collar are all expertly done. The button holes even line up with the buttons, which is rarer than you'd think! Highest compliments to Elyza the seamstress.

Here in northeastern Kansas, this is definitely a three-season coat, based on what you put underneath it and on whether or not you remove the shoulder cape. It's perfectly comfortable sitting or standing for long periods, and it blocks the wind without feeling like you're wearing something that's been lined with a trash bag.

Amusingly, all of the compliments I've received have been from other men.

And to anyone quibbling about the price: source another 100% wool men's coat/greatcoat that's handmade in the United States, then give up on that and order this one. You will not be disappointed.

Fits perfectly. Beautifully made-Kudos to Kim V!
