Gary:

 

Could you design a longer coat for those of us who live in cold climates and need coverage on the lower body parts.  Short jackets just doesn't cut it when it's below zero.

 

Also, I wish you would go back to the fabric you used years ago for the 2 pocket pull on pants. it was a bit heavier than the twill of today, but it held its shape better and didn't 

need ironing.

Thank you

Coats - agree!  Guess they don't have cold car seats in Philly.   Designers call short outerwear - Coats  - but I call them Jackets.

Short jackets don't have a place in my wardrobe.

Today it was 16 degrees but felt like -2..... I actually had to break out my Dennis Basso reversible fur coat!  (Fur on the inside for me!)  To the knees and warm with a hood.  I also don't buy any coats/jackets without hoods....  5" of snow today!  Woman LOL

You might try a department stores's web site for long coats.  I purchased a long wool coat that way (in a petite no less).  It seems long coats have fallen out of favor, but there is nothing like them to keep out the wind and cold.

"I also don't buy any coats/jackets without hoods"

Ditto!!!! 

 

All my hoods must be fluffy fur trimmed.

I bought a Pam McCoy ankle length faux fur hooded coat in arctic white this year. Simply love it, as does apparently everyone who sees it. So soft. So warm. Had a couple men ask where to buy for their wives. Evine.

I too have wondered why there seem to be so few . Im thankful that Pamela McCoy and Donna Salyer still offer long hooded coats. I love mine for the extra cold days.

Lands End has long down coats in various colors each year.  I know they aren't the most fashionable coats but I wear mine on the coldest of days and it keeps me warm.  I don't know what I'd do without it.
