How many coats do you have?

Weird question coming into summer but I'm curious!

I have a regular wool type coat, a trench coat, a parka, a dog walking coat & a blazer.

They're all past their best so next year I'm looking to upgrade but I'm wondering how many I actually need.

Black leather jacket
White leather jacket
Black biker jacket with furry hood
Brown biker jacket
Grey biker jacket
Checked wool coat smart
Burgundy wool coat smart
Long pale puffer jacket for freezing cold days
Long black hooded coat
Short black hooded coat
Short black and white jacket
Bright pink rainproof jacket

Too many, I take up the entire coat rack on my own Blush For cold weather, two 3/4-length black felt ones (one classic double-breasted, one slightly gothy/piratey), an olive green parka, a camel-coloured wool duffel (that I hate the colour of) and a kind of blue patterned Noa Noa calf-length cotton canvas one with removable quilted lining and a big hood. I ADORE that coat - it's literally falling to pieces but I can't find anything to replace itSad For spring/autumn I have a black leather jacket, a taupe hooded cotton jacket, a 3/4-length waxed black/grey rain mac (bought to replace the Noa Noa coat but it doesn't come close), an olive green tartan wool jacket. I do wear them all! But if the NN one was in good nick, I wouldn't bother with any of the others.

This thread has made me realise how many I have. I'd never thought about it before:
full-length black wool coat
Finery London burnt orange light wool trench
Boden multi-coloured raincoat
Parka London houndstooth Lara
Black leather coat (like Buffy from BtVS) Blush
lightweight black parka
faux fur jacket
pink waterfall jacket
selection of blazers (navy, black)
grey and white pin-striped waterfall wool jacket
short tweed jacket
Barber short padded jacket

I need some new summer coats tbh. I've dropped 3 sizes since last summer so I'm going to read back through the thread for inspiration.

34 + not including blazers!
I have everything from trench coats, max Mara evening coats but my hoard tends to be in winter outdoor activity jackets. I have way too many ski jackets that I love, duvet coats, waterproofs such as Rab, Paramo, TNF etc.

I keep getting them out to cull but I love them them all!

Ooohh I love coats!

I have:

Grey wool tailored coat (Jigsaw). Very smart and I only wear it occasionally
Long black down coat (Boden)
Burgundy down jacket (Fat Face) - bought this season and have been wearing loads
Brown leather biker jacket (Mint Velvet but Ebay bargain £50 Smile) - wear it loads in the spring
Denim jacket (Boden)
Grey jersey blazer (Whistles)
Navy blue wool coat (Mint Velvet) - good in-between coat
Mid blue trench coat (Hobbs) - hardly worn

I think that's it. I am now contemplating a gorgeous suede jacket from Jigsaw.
