Overcoats can be identified by their length and fabric. The overcoat is at least knee length, might be longer. And since the primary purpose is protection from cold, the fabric used is heavyweight like wool or tweed or fur. However there are many designers today who have begun using lighter fabrics too for creating overcoats for people belonging to places which are cold but not exactly like Narnia. I mean it’s bad enough not having really cold winters with the snow and everything, why even deny them a chance to flaunt the overcoat and look dapper and nonchalant.
