Overcoats by REQUISITE custom clothing

There are days when we walk out and quickly realize that our suit jacket will not be enough to keep us warm. Regardless of how cold it gets outside we should never let it be scary cold, ala George Costanza in the puffy coat.

The overcoat is a garment that belongs in every mans wardrobe, its usefulness (keeps you warm when its cold), is only over shadowed by its ability to shine a spot light on its wearers elegance and taste. And just like any other piece of fine clothing, the perfect custom overcoat is all about the cut.

Most “off the rack” overcoats are big, baggy and bulky, a cut more suitable for a flasher. The fit of an overcoat should have flattering smooth lines, a hint of waist suppression and a hem that doesn’t bell out dramatically. Easy to put on at a moments notice, our custom overcoats can be made in varying weights, for varying degrees of cold, in fabrics ranging from wool to cashmere to tech hybrids such as the Loro Piana storm system, which is water proof. The perfect custom overcoat is an investment that will pay back dividends for many years to come.
