Most Hei cosplay coats get the shape roughly right and miss everything else. The wrong fabric, the wrong lining color, buttons that fall off after two conventions. Baron builds Hei’s coat from 100% Super 140s worsted wool, to your exact measurements, with screen-accurate green acetate lining, cloth-covered buttons stitched by hand, and the correct stand-up collar with buckle detail. Every order includes a free test coat shipped to you first so the fit is confirmed before we cut the wool. 14 colors. From $679.

Description
Hei’s coat is one of the most recognized silhouettes in anime. The straight collar with buckle detail, the cloth-covered buttons, the flared hem, the mid-calf length – every element is deliberate, and every element is visible from across a convention floor. Most cosplay versions miss the details. Baron builds this coat from 100% Super 140s worsted wool in the correct weight and cut, to your exact measurements, with a screen-accurate green acetate lining. The result is a coat that photographs like the reference, fits like it was made for you, and holds up far beyond a single event.
100% Super 140s Worsted Wool – Why It Matters for This Coat
Hei’s coat is dark, structured, and clean-lined. It needs to drape with weight and hold its silhouette whether you’re standing still for photos or moving through a crowded event floor. Super 140s worsted wool at 8 ounces does exactly that. It is light enough for indoor wear, heavy enough to fall correctly, and fine enough to take a sharp, clean press.
Most replica coats use polyester blends that look fine in photographs but feel like a costume. This coat uses the same fabric category as a quality men’s suit – it wears like clothing, not like cosplay. That distinction matters when you’re in it for eight hours at a convention.
Available in 14 colors. The default and most screen-accurate choice is black. All 14 options are available at the same price.

Who This Coat Is For
If you know who Hei is, you already know whether this coat is for you. But the quality of this build means it works for a broader audience than strict cosplayers.
The Serious Cosplayer
You’ve done the character before with a lesser coat and know what the difference looks like in photos. You want the version built from wool, fitted to your actual measurements, with the correct lining and the correct silhouette. This is that coat.
The Convention Regular
You attend multiple events a year. A coat that fits correctly, wears comfortably for eight hours, and doesn’t fall apart after two conventions is worth the investment. This one is made from suit fabric and built to last.
The Fan Who Wants It as Everyday Outerwear
A long black wool coat with a dramatic collar and flared hem works well beyond cosplay. In black, this coat reads as fashion outerwear to anyone who doesn’t know the reference – and as a perfect Hei coat to everyone who does.
The Gift Buyer
You want something that a Darker Than Black fan will actually keep and wear. Not a mass-produced replica that gets worn once. A made-to-measure coat in real wool that fits the person receiving it.

Free Test Coat – Why Every Baron Order Includes One
A cosplay coat that doesn’t fit correctly undermines the whole look. Hei’s silhouette is specific – the coat needs to sit at the right point on the shoulder, hang to the right length, and move correctly when you walk. Getting that right for a customer ordering from overseas requires a fitting step.
Every Baron order begins with a complete test coat in an inexpensive cotton fabric, built to your measurements and shipped to you by trackable courier. You try it on. You tell us what needs adjusting. We fix the pattern and then build your final coat in the wool. The test coat is yours to keep. This is how we guarantee fit for every customer, regardless of where in the world they order from.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this coat screen-accurate to Hei’s coat in Darker Than Black?
Yes. The key details that make Hei’s coat recognizable are all here: the stand-up straight collar with buckle detail, 5 cloth-covered buttons with loop fastening rather than standard buttonholes, the flared hem with center back vent, mid-calf length, and green acetate lining. The fabric is 100% worsted wool in the correct weight. We build this coat from reference, not from a generic trench coat pattern.
Can I wear this coat to a convention all day?
Yes – and this is where it separates from polyester cosplay coats. Super 140s worsted wool at 8 ounces is the same fabric category used in quality suit jackets. It drapes correctly whether you’re moving or standing still, and it doesn’t feel like wearing a plastic bag after three hours. It is made for extended wear. Dry-clean after the event and it will be ready for the next one.
What colors are available?
14 colors: Black (screen-accurate default), Navy, Charcoal Grey, Dark Grey, Medium Grey, Light Grey, Oxford Blue, Blue, Brown, White, Beige, Tan, and Melange. All are the same price. Black is the correct screen-accurate choice for Hei’s coat. The other colors work well if you want a Hei-inspired coat in a different colorway, or want to wear it as everyday outerwear.
What fit options are available?
Three options: slim fit (close to the body, contemporary), standard fit (classic tailored silhouette, slightly more room), relaxed fit (easier movement, more volume), and an athletic fit (broad shoulders, narrow waist). For cosplay accuracy, slim fit or standard fit tend to match Hei’s look most closely. Add your preference when you order and we confirm before production.
How does the free test coat work?
When you place your order, you enter your measurements on this product page. We build a complete test coat in an inexpensive cotton fabric to those measurements and ship it to you by trackable courier. You try it on, check the fit across the shoulders, chest, and length, and tell us anything that needs adjusting. We update your pattern and then cut your final coat in the Super 140s wool. The test coat is yours to keep at no extra charge. This is how we guarantee fit for customers ordering from anywhere in the world.
Is this coat good for everyday wear, not just cosplay?
Yes. In black, Hei’s coat is a long, structured wool coat with a dramatic collar – it reads as fashion outerwear to anyone who doesn’t recognize the character. The stand-up collar and cloth-covered buttons make it distinctive without being obviously a costume. Many customers wear it as a fall and winter coat in addition to using it for cosplay. The wool weight makes it a genuine three-season garment.
What is the lining color and why does it matter?
The lining is green acetate – this is the screen-accurate color for Hei’s coat interior as shown in Darker Than Black. When the coat opens or moves, the lining is visible, and the green is a distinctive detail that separates a proper Hei coat from a generic black trench. The acetate lining also makes the coat easy to put on and take off, and extends the life of the outer fabric.
Can I order this coat if I’m outside the USA?
Yes. We ship worldwide via trackable courier. Customers from Australia, the UK, Canada, Germany, Singapore, Japan, and many other countries have ordered this coat. The test coat and final coat both ship to your address. Delivery is typically 3 to 7 business days once each piece is complete.
How long does the whole process take?
Plan on 6 to 9 weeks from order to final coat in your hands. The test coat takes 2 to 3 weeks to build and ship. Once you confirm the fit, the final coat takes 4 to 6 weeks in production. If you have a convention date or a deadline, tell us when you order and we will confirm whether we can meet it.
