I have a dark gray trench-style wool coat from there that's years old and still looking good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-grey-coat#post-2044845 Thu, 18 Jul 2019 09:42:32 +0000 Mel 2044845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kkards thanks for the Mango tip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-grey-coat#post-2044844 Thu, 18 Jul 2019 09:41:57 +0000 Mel 2044844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I'll bump us this thread in fall when more coats are on the market.<br /> Suz- thanks for the JCrew tip. I've seen that cocoon coat and I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-grey-coat#post-2044743 Thu, 18 Jul 2019 00:49:59 +0000 Anonymous 2044743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto about waiting. It's still midsummer so I'm sure coats will be trickling in for at least 3 or 4 months still! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-grey-coat#post-2044655 Wed, 17 Jul 2019 21:38:42 +0000 Suz 2044655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would wait for a while. But when the time comes, check J. Crew and Boden. You might have to wait for sales to get the price as low as you like, but the coat would last longer and would not pill. I have a J. Crew (in lilac, but a style they often make in grey) and it is holding up extremely well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-grey-coat#post-2044651 Wed, 17 Jul 2019 21:31:02 +0000 taylor 2044651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Grey seems to be one of those colors that are in full abundance or super scarce .<br /> Agreeing with Thistle here, wait as fall gets closer. Good luck ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-grey-coat#post-2044560 Wed, 17 Jul 2019 18:06:50 +0000 Thistle 2044560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Might want to wait another month or so. A lot more jackets will start hitting the shelves then. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-grey-coat#post-2044382 Wed, 17 Jul 2019 11:17:23 +0000 kkards 2044382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>not double breasted, but the way it buttons it looks like you get &nbsp;the same warmth... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-grey-coat#post-2044356 Wed, 17 Jul 2019 07:36:09 +0000 Mel 2044356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello everyone!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>I got this awesome coat from Zara two years ago. I wore it several times for two winters, but unfortunately it's already pilling like crazy (thanks to marvelously inconsistent Zara quality...).&nbsp; I really want to replace it with another, but better quality. If you come across one in your shopping travels, can you let me know? I would be willing to pay up to $200 for one that I love and that could last me several years.</p> <p>-light grey color<br />-tailored style<br />-side pockets to stick your hands in (a must!)<br />-double breasted (I like the extra warmth)<br />-knee-length or almost knee-length (I'm short, so mid-thigh coats are sometimes knee-length on me)<br />-should probably be wool, or some warm blend. This Zara one is polyester and is a little too lightweight for real winters.<br />-I am size 0/XS. This Zara one is size S and fits well for underneath layering.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks everyone! </p>
