I’ve been wearing a double breasted wool peacoat for years and still get compliments now and then about how cool it looks. 10/10 recommend long wool coats in the winter months
Russians soldiers in ww2 were not issued blankets. And so they took German blankets as soon as they were captured. And they would use great coats for blankets and pillows in the summer. Interesting history. Personally I think these coats are fantastic.
I got an old Romanian greatcoat and while it feels like it's made of sandpaper it does a great job at keeping me warm when it's cold and makes me stand out in a good way, lotta people compliment you for wearing it
This video made me want to buy a great coat. I don't even need a Great coat. I live in Tennessee. There's absolutely no need for that. But I may buy one just because of this video. Also, I had to hit that sub button
I live in Florida and I still want a great coat even if I can only use it for the two weeks' worth of genuinely cold days we get on average every winter.
Quick tip for anyone here reading. Soak your Great Coat in Super Cold Water one time and let it drip air dry. This will help smooth out the wrinkles in shipping and make your big boy size coat slightly bigger and longer.
@@jackcountryman9192in case you haven’t looked it up or learned within the 8 months of asking this, it’s basically the way the raw footage is edited to have better-looking or more-consistent colors. You’ll see it used in basically any film to convey different moods.
Id like to see a shorts vid or a mini video on how to maintain and repair said "drip" coats you guys sell. Would also help with those more intimidated by potential maintenance of owning one, that and some extra content. Love what you guys are doing! Also restock Vz95 Summercap pls. I want a medium but theres none available lol
As a teenager in the 80's I used to do what would now be call as ultra-lightweight camping, everything in an old British 37 pattern largepack with a rolled up WWII British greatcoat on top as sleeping bag/foul weather gear etc etc. Epic pieces of kit but a git to get hold of nowadays, especially middle aged spread sizing 😅 In the 90's you could pick up Warsaw pact great coats for pennys, wish I'd invested in a couple of dozen.
I bought a 20€ used cashmere and wool coat two years ago it's beautiful, it's perfect for the winter it keeps me warm like nothing else and protects from strong winds my gf loves it, pretty much anything I have looks stylish af with the coat over it men, buy greatcoats, you can find old military ones for pennies and they will probably outlive you
Peninsula State Park is beautiful anytime of the year. Eagle bluff trail is a great place to film TH-cam. Always entertaining videos. Keep them coming!
I just ordered one, it says wool fabric construction, do you mind letting me know if it is 100 percent wool or what other material it is made with, as the inner liner doesnt look wool, thanks
I commonly wear milsurp fieldcaps + my Great Granddad's WW2 Melton coat and get compliments all the time. The fieldcap that people notice the most is my M65 Finnish fieldcap.
I live in California, I shouldn't be buying greatcoats, but I will because of your amazing commercial. A commercial shouldn’t just try to get the audience's attention, it should be able to hold it and entertain them. Your commercial did just that, bravo!
I'm actually surprised police and military aren't issued a tactical version of a wool greatcoat because they are really well made and they work so damn well
Great video! Just subscribed. I just picked up a ww2 greatcoat for $200. It fits amazing and is in such great condition. Another selling point is that if you were to buy a jacket like these ww2 great coats with the material and manufacturing today, this $200 coat would legit cost probably about $1,200. If not more.
The wool coat is not so great in the "Windy City". I know because once upon a time, I was a United States Navy Sailor. That wind coming off of Lake Michigan whistled right through my issued P-Coat. So some sort of wind breaker over the P-Coat would be ideal.
I ordered a Large Greek greatcoat. Has a #3 on the inside. Measures 23” across the chest from seam to seam under the armpits. Fits me snug. If the #3 is considered a Large then they run small. I’m 5’10” 170lbs 42” chest
would be interested but the only great coat that has these eyes, is the polish great coat. the best looking one. I only hope the one i ordered has the height right, since everything was to size but height was a few sizes short. Now I just need to find a polish trench coat to go over the great coat
@@ALegitimateTH-camrits really good. My size. The color is OD Green. There is a secret pocket in the left cuff for a pack of Cigarettes. The coat is from the cold war era.
i would get one, but i live in 115 degree 100% humidity Texas where it snows once every 15 years a light dusting and the cold months are more like cold weeks or days here, then back on to summer
I got two, one of the soviet Tank Forces (the ones tghat were stationed in East Germany, where i got it. Cause i am from there) and one from the East German Army from 1980 Something.
Buyers please beware of the greatcoats you buy! I bought an American Greatcoat from the 60s, double breasted, lovely navy blue, but without alot of layering, a scarf and a warm hat, anything below -3 celsius quickly becomes unpleasant. I suspect this is because of the satin lining and thinner wool compared to what I expected. I'm sure there are ones out there that are just as effective as modern winter coats, but I am yet to find one.
I find your comment about greatcoats declining because of car use amusing. I rather like wearing my greatcoat while driving because it isn't as bulky as my parka.
Hey awesome video. I was wondering if the blue greatcoat is the italian airforce greatcoat and if it is, could i trouble you for the size of the coat and how tall are you please.
they got back in fashion , since they don t allowed to smoke in coffee shop bars and restaurants , grate garment for winter night out , got a green army color one and is much better and cheaper than other civilan wool coat ,
Wonderful Video! But I have one question, where could I find a greatcoat like the. Greek one? Like not similar, I would love it to be a Greek Greatcoat. My father didn’t want me to buy the coat on your website.
I'll be buying a greatcoat online in a few days. The last one I was buying I missed by just 2 hours. Really quick, can you tell if I'm a size 40 (chest measurement) and I want a greatcoat that fits over maybe just a thick sweater, how many sizes should I go down?
I ordered your last italian airforce greatcoat and more, it's been 6 days and you still have yet to even ship the order. How long does it take you to fulfill the orders?
You never have anything in stock when I check, even after announcing you've got a heap of stuff in. Idk whether you sell out THAT fast or what, but I'm 6' and nothing in stock ever fits me, it's all for 5'6" manlets.
I don’t need a great coat… I’ve got two reasonable good jackets… On that was terrible. I think the market for great coats dwindled a little since they added full body scanners at cinemas to stop three toddlers standing on each others shoulders in a great coat sneaking in to movies they weren’t old enough to see. Sad times really.

They colour grade like a Wes Anderson film (and I love it)
It’s ideal tbh
i got this as a youtube ad and now im convinced i needa greatcoat

I also have a Romanian greatcoat, wonder if it's the same pattern?
I live in Upstate NY and walk to work, and a greatcoat is an indispensable part of my wardrobe because of it.
they're lifesavers in the winter!
Shout out upstate
Buffalo great coat society rise up!

They are relatively cheap and good quality.

It won't shrink?
@@pigboy77 no
@@pigboy77shrinking is caused by rapid heating of a cool wet garment. Letting it drip and air dry doesn't have such negative effects
@@bagel_guy9495 Thanks. I didn't know that.
Love the way you guys have colorgraded this video
What does that mean? What's colorgrading and how can you tell its in the video?

Yeah, great job fellahs. This slightly longer format was genuinely interesting and enjoyable to watch. Stylin with stats!

that's some damn cool kit to be camping with! gotta try a greatcoat for fall camping
sound so good

my gf loves it, pretty much anything I have looks stylish af with the coat over it
men, buy greatcoats, you can find old military ones for pennies and they will probably outlive you
Oh god these do look amazing, I love how professionally you’ve done your videos they put Amazon and other big companies to shame
Plan to order one from you guys next fall. Hope you continue to restock these.

Just received the m60 Swedish coat and I’m loving it!!!

@@thenoblemarksman1370 ahh idk these coats are made back in the 60s so I’m pretty sure it’s all wool
These guys get it. I could buy a wool coat with dozens of vendors. But with AP, I'm also buying a piece of history and an epic story.
I live in a warmer part of the netherlands, and i have 3 greatcoats, 2 ww2 german ones, and a british one, and i love them!
I commonly wear milsurp fieldcaps + my Great Granddad's WW2 Melton coat and get compliments all the time.
The fieldcap that people notice the most is my M65 Finnish fieldcap.

I ordered one of your french navy coats a couple weeks ago boys and it arrived two days ago. It's now my all time favourite piece in my wardrobe
I bought one from you guys, I love it!
Just copped this from your website ! Hope my orders come without a problem , because I'll deffinatpy be a returning customer !
I'm actually surprised police and military aren't issued a tactical version of a wool greatcoat because they are really well made and they work so damn well
Still use the one I got in the navy. It's actually in better shape than I am now 😂
I was looking for a greatcoat - never thought about buying a surplus 😅
@3:02 Oh hey! it's the overlook at the Ellison Bluff State Natural Area!
Yeah I'd definitely want a greatcoat if I were in Door County WI year round.

The only time i hate being a big guy is when trying to buy surplus
I got lucky on a big size.
I might have to pick one up soon
Welshman here nice insertion of the joke. It was done well congratulations
I purchased the Khaki French greatcoat from your website it's quite wonderous in the English winter!
Wool greatcoats and trench coats are the best. Im so happy when it starts to get cold outside and I get to break out my Bulgarian or Romanian coat.
Now i need to order a greatcoat in the right size
Great video! It's always a pleasure to come across fellow greatcoat enjoyers :)
I love this look. I just wish I lived in an area where I could wear one.
A random but very interesting video. Sweet. Wool also locks up carbon. Another added bonus.
The greatcoat is my favorite garment. I have many from WW2
What is the instrumental from 0:00 to 0:12 ?
One day I will own a vintage milsurp greatcoat before it sells out
Great documentary.
I fuckin love this channel
I've been wearing my peacoat since '96
restock big boy size great coat man
Perhaps 😂
@robinswords would love this video.

Gang it I was going to wait until I got paid this friday to get a Large... They're all gone!
Really wanting the greek ones to come back
what is the name of the coat you're wearing while saying the old russian proverb? it looks incredible
Comment for the algorithm! And hey, Door County!
Thank you!
based on my research of living in the netherlands, the knee length North Face puffer is the new greatcoat
Your marketing is so damn good.

@@unkono might look into it but currently have the polish parka and that once again the poles delivery with amazing quality gear.
Outstanding
The blend of history and drip is immaculate
The Welsh joke that’s the point I hit like.
I live in south Texas so of course you can expect an order for a baker's dozen from me.

Get some XL in and I'd but at least one! Make my wife happy and let me buy more mid-century!
What is the khaki coloured coat you're wearing boss?
I want one, but winters are getting warmer and shorter, too. It just wouldn't be worth it for me in my area.
Whats the name of the song at the beginning? With the groovy flute and bass and guitar
damn dude i keep seeing the commercial and its driving me nuts, it sounds so cool, someone help a brother out
I think it's by Masayoshi Takanaka, I'll have to ask my editor
It's the beat from Paco Panama: red or blue but sadly there's no instrumental only vocal
I really need a crimson one to match Coriolanus Snow’s.
Greatcoats sre the way
which model of greatcoat is he wearing in the video
they got back in fashion , since they don t allowed to smoke in coffee shop bars and restaurants , grate garment for winter night out , got a green army color one and is much better and cheaper than other civilan wool coat ,

Y’all got any fat guy sizes? I want one but it’s in practical in most of California.😅

Xtra large tall
Any feedback?
unfortunately we don't have much of that size
