Am I mad to buy on of these coats?!

[boohooyoutoo]

Which is better option 1 or 2? Also, am I mad to pay these prices for a coat?!! I love love love them but I'm a bit concerned they'll go out of style quickly.

What do you think?*

Well done for reconsidering OP. Save your money and use it for a coat which is classic and won’t go out of fashion.

I like the Maxmara one best, but I really don’t like this type of coat. Mainly because they make me look like an actual teddy, short and round and furry, which may not apply to you! I also think that they will date in a way that a wool coat won’t, no matter the styling.

I don't like those ones, but there's plenty of teddy coats on the high street if you want one for novelty. I sure as shite wouldn't spend the best part of £1k on one, let alone £1900.

Unless you're minted of course? If money is no object then buy what you like.

And if you're set on buying an expensive coat, buy a classic styled wool coat for £800 or whatever you're willing to spend and get a polyester Teddy bear knock off from asos or next for £80!

Made me think of John Motson.

🤣🤣🤣

I prefer the Max Mara but I wouldn’t pay the price because I’m a skint keyworker!

Looks like an Ewok costume. Even with a tenth of the price tag, I wouldn't like it, sorry.

I always think that type looks quite cheap (in a high fashion sort of way, not in a cheap and nasty way) when I see them. I don’t think it’s a style to spend that much on. Love them but not at that price.

Yes you’d be mad to spend that kind of money.
On first glance I thought the first one was the £35 Primark coat my dd has just bought. I look ridiculous in it but dd looks great.

I think it's total boredom being in lockdown it's clearly not making me think rationally!! I'll save my money ☺️

I'd look like Bungle off Rainbow in that 😂

I have one and I love it, DH on the other hand hates it.

Crazy.

I like the first one! I think the shape is more flattering than the second

Don't like either of them op. Agree with the Arthur Daly comment. It's something he'd buy for 'er indoors!

80's football manager vibes.

Not sure I'd pay a grand to resemble Big Ron Saunders.

Hideous, unless you want to look like a Cockapoo. Hope that helps you to step away

Or Del Boy!!!

OP I went down this rabbit hole last winter and checked myself in time. I bought a cheapo copy in grey from Zara. It was actually earning its keep til Thursday as was in tier 2. It’s really warm and can just be bunged in machine. Haven’t actually got good or drink down it meeting up outside yet but it does feel more of a possibility when you are bundled up and constricted.

Oh well this is embarrassing, I really like both of them!

Sorry- fluffed up link

Me too @2Kidsinatrenchcoat

You'll look like a big tedy bear.

They're awful! Get something classic and timeless
