    Not set in stone exactly how it will work but I am thinking to set up the laptop on christmas eve with the Stormy Kromer site and let them pick out a hat and then measure their size.

    Pretty much,,, The wife searched high and low for the coat at least 25 years ago, it is a actual Woolrich made in the good ol USA
    I don't wear it as often up here, as I did in Colorado, it is a true COLD weather coat hehehe

    You can still find them, search "Capote Coat" they are crazy expensive, of course this one was pretty pricey even back then

    Sportsmans Guide has them now and then for a more reasonable price, if I wanted a new one that is where I would be looking

    Yes, the Capote Coat is different from the Mackinaw Coat though. I was surprised the Mackinaw Coat first appeared at the start of the War of 1812. Quite a long and interesting history for the HBC point blanket coats.
