Suggestions for a Business Formal Winter Coat for Very Cold Weather?
The simple problem: I sometimes have business obligations that require business attire, but during very cold weather (e.g., Chicago in winter). Standard cold weather business attire is the long wool coat, but in my experience, they're only good down to 20° (-5 C) or so, even layered on a suit. Anything colder than that doesn't work well, as the long wool coats tend to be a bit drafty and not quite warm enough.
So, the constraints on what I'm looking for:
-
Looks good with a suit: yes. That's the minimum.
-
Warm: yes, obviously, at least down to the teens F (-10 C).
-
Bright colors: no. I want to look like I'm going to a meeting, not like I got separated from my party between the base camp and the summit. I'm not worried about rescue parties being able to find me after I get buried in an avalanche, I'm worried about looking professional but staying warm while I'm waiting for the hotel shuttle.
-
Black trash bag material: no. I have no idea how this ever got to be a thing, but I'm not going to go into a business meeting wearing something that looks like it got assembled from a Hefty trash bag and a pile of cotton balls.
-
Man-fur: no. I'm with Seinfeld on this one. (Edit: fur trim is OK.)
-
Parka: maybe. Depends on the style. Again, has to look good with a suit, not like I'm on my way to the North Pole.
-
Material: flexible, just as long as it looks appropriate. I suspect that there are constraints on just how warm you can stay with wool, so it may have to be synthetic, but again, has to look appropriate for a business setting.
