I received a Lands End catalog yesterday. Very dangerous, so many cute things for spring. I saw this coat, liked the idea of two colors for different outfits. But I wonder how it looks, if it isn't a little shlumpadinka😊 How can it stay looking as crisp as the photos when it's reversible?

It's polyester and water resistant. It's $129, 40% off order coupon in the catalog. I don't care for the big giant pockets, I think they detract from the look of the coat.

I like.  Those pockets are handy.  I own a few reversible Susan Graver coats with similar pockets and it's nice to have them on both sides - great for stashing stuff securely inside the coat, while having them outside too for keeping hands warm and dry, dropping keys into, and the like.

Well, I confess.  I have four SG reversible coats.  Really, eight.  Great fun to change the look.

I think the LE coat you show is vey cute.  The stitching above those pockets adds a nice detail.  The outerwear I've bought there has been well-made.

Not a fan of reversible anything. They just get sloppy.

That's practical coat!   If you want to show off your figure - buy a tight-fitting 'figure coat'.  But if you (like me) slop around getting groceries - hair done - filling your car with gas............you need/want a coat that lets you breath and get jobs done.  To me, fashion isn't top of my grocery list.

I love Lands Ends jackets and have a closet full of them.  I am partial to the Primaloft jackets and own four of them. I don’ t need another one, so I have to behave myselfwhen they price,them so low they almost give them away.  I also have a long down coat and a squall jacket.

Last Spring I purchased a StormRaker jacket.  I always buy them at a great discount. They offer petite sizes and the quality is there, so I am a fan.

I do like the reversible coat you posted..don't tempt me.

@Carmie I had a Lands End down coat up until two years ago when I donated it. So warm and it held up so well. True quality.

I like the jacket - especially the light blue side.  Received their catalog yesterday - so many nice things and 40% off is great.   Now I am tempted to get this coat.  Love Lands End and have many of their coats, jackets.

@Greeneyedlady21,

Love reversible coats, jackets, two for one. I also admit that I usually prefer one side to the other, in your case the white it is🌻
