Most men’s navy peacoats are either cheap and shapeless or rigid and overbuilt. Ours is the third option. Slim-fit, double-breasted, in an 18-ounce wool-cashmere blend, made to your measurements. Before we cut the wool, we ship you a free test coat in cotton. You confirm the fit, then we make your peacoat. Six wool-cashmere colors. 33 lining colors. From $599. Worldwide tracked shipping.
Follow these simple steps to ensure your custom garment fits you perfectly. All you need is a flexible measuring tape.
You do not have to get this perfect. Send us your best measurements and we craft a free test garment to your numbers first, so the fit is confirmed on your body before we cut your final cloth. Every piece is custom made to your measurements, and the test garment is yours to keep.

Before You Order
Your questions, answered
Ordering a garment made to your measurements should feel reassuring, not nerve-racking. Here are the doubts men most often have, and exactly why you can set them aside.
I have never bought a suit I could not try on in a shop first. How do I know it will fit?
Because you do try it on first. Once you send your measurements, we make a free test garment in a stand-in cloth cut to your numbers and post it to you. You put it on at home, check the shoulders, chest, waist, and length, move around in it, and send us your notes and a couple of photos. Only once you are happy do we cut your final cloth, so the finished suit is not a leap of faith, it is a fit you have already seen and approved on your own body.
I am worried I will measure myself wrong.
You do not have to get it perfect. The videos and steps above walk you through each measurement one at a time, a friend or a local tailor can help with the ones that are easier with a second pair of hands, and if you are unsure you can send your best numbers. The free test garment exists precisely to catch anything slightly off, we see the fit on your body and adjust before your final cloth is touched, so a first-try measurement is completely normal.
I have always struggled to find clothes that fit me. Broad shoulders, an athletic build, a longer or shorter torso, or a fuller waist. Is this really for someone like me?
It is made for exactly you. The men who fight hardest with off-the-rack are the ones who benefit most here, because there is no standard size to squeeze into. We cut to your proportions, broad shoulders with a trimmer waist, a fuller stomach with a shorter jacket length, a long or short back, so the garment follows your body instead of forcing your body into a shape it is not. There is nothing wrong with your build; there are only your measurements.
My body is not symmetrical, one shoulder sits lower or my posture is not textbook. Can you cut for that?
Yes. A garment made to your measurements is built for real bodies, not idealized ones. Note anything particular in your order, or simply show us on the test garment, and we adjust the cut, a lower shoulder, a fuller seat, a forward stance, and confirm it before the final cloth is cut. This is exactly what the process does that a size on a rack never can.
It is a lot to spend on something custom made. What is my safety net?
Your safety net is that nothing final, and nothing costly, is cut until you have approved the fit on the free test garment. You are not paying for a gamble, you are paying for a garment whose fit you have already confirmed on your own body. And a well-made piece that actually fits gets worn for years, so the cost per wear is usually far lower than the compromise suits and jackets that sit unworn in the wardrobe.
I need this for a wedding or a specific event and I am anxious it will not be right on the day.
Tell us the date when you order and we plan the whole timeline back from it, including the free test-garment stage, so there is time to confirm the fit and make any adjustments with room to spare. For a dated event we recommend ordering two to three months ahead. Because you approve the fit on the test garment before the final piece is cut, you are not walking into your event hoping it fits, you already know it does.
What if it arrives and something is still not quite right?
The final garment is cut to the exact fit you signed off on the test garment, so surprises are rare by design. If a small tweak is ever needed, your finished piece carries seam allowances so a local tailor can fine-tune it, and you can always contact us and we will help make it right. You are never left alone with something that does not work.
What if my weight changes before the event, or later on?
Take your measurements as close to the date as you can, and if your size shifts before we cut the final cloth we simply work to your new numbers. For afterwards, your finished garment is made with seam allowances so a local tailor can take it in or let it out within reason, and we keep your measurements on record, so ordering another piece that fits is simple whenever you want one.
Do I really need someone to help me, or can I do this alone?
You can absolutely do it alone. Most measurements are straightforward to take on yourself with the videos above, and only a few, like across the back and shoulders, are simply easier with a friend holding the tape. Either way, the free test garment is the real check: whatever you measure, you confirm the fit on your body before anything final is made.
✂Free test garment firstWe only cut cloth after you confirm the fit
Most navy peacoats fall into two categories. The cheap ones are shapeless rectangles in thin wool blends that lose their shape after one winter. The expensive ones are rigid, broad-shouldered, built for a 1940s frame, with sleeves that swallow your hands.
This is the third option. Slim-fit, sharp through the chest, clean at the waist, sleeves that end where they should. Made to your measurements in a dense 18-ounce wool-cashmere blend that holds its shape and softens with wear. And before we cut a single inch of wool, we send you a free test coat in cotton to try on at home. You confirm the fit. Then we make your peacoat.
The Fabric
Why an 18-ounce wool-cashmere blend matters in November
18 oz Wool-Cashmere Dense Weave Wind-Resistant Holds Its Shape Softens With Wear
Most men have owned a peacoat that looked great in the shop and disappointing by January. The reason is almost always the fabric weight. Department-store peacoats run 12 to 14 ounces. They are too thin to block wind and too soft to hold a sharp lapel after a few wears.
Ours is 18 ounces, woven dense, with a measured cashmere content that gives the surface a soft hand without making it pill. It blocks wind across the chest, holds its silhouette through a wet commute, and develops a quiet sheen over years rather than going flat after a season.

Color & Lining
Six wool-cashmere colors. Thirty-three linings.
Navy is the classic. Most of our customers choose it. But the same coat is available in five other wool-cashmere colors, each with the same 18-ounce weight and dense weave.
Wool-Cashmere Navy
The original. Dark, rich, reads black at night and unmistakably navy in daylight.
Wool-Cashmere Charcoal
A grey peacoat for men who already own navy. Softer than black, sharper than mid-grey.
Wool-Cashmere Black
For formal evenings and the city. Pairs as well over a tuxedo as over jeans.
Wool-Cashmere Camel
Warm, luxurious, the color of a Steve McQueen winter. Reads as money without trying.
Wool-Cashmere Brown
Country-house brown. Goes with brown shoes, denim, corduroy. The opposite of corporate.
Wool-Cashmere Coffee Brown
Deeper than brown, lighter than black. The most underrated color in menswear.
Inside, choose from 33 acetate linings, including burgundy, paisley, gold, and navy. The lining is the part nobody else sees but you, every time you take it off.
The Fit Guarantee
A free test coat ships before we cut the wool
Buying a $599 wool-cashmere peacoat online without trying it on is a fair thing to be nervous about. We solved that the only honest way: before we cut into wool, we make you a complete cotton version of your coat, ship it to your door, and you try it on at home.
If anything needs adjusting, you tell us. We update the pattern. Then we make your peacoat to the corrected pattern. The cotton test coat is yours to keep.
No off-the-rack peacoat goes through this. It is the single reason our customers stop buying off-the-rack.
Who This Is For
Who this peacoat is for
Men with athletic builds
Who find department-store peacoats either too tight in the chest or too loose at the waist. Slim-fit through the chest, sharp at the waist, sleeves to your length.
Men outside standard sizes
Tall, short, broad, narrow, long-sleeved, short-torsoed. The pattern is drawn for your body, not graded from a generic block.
Men replacing a worn-out peacoat
Who have already learned that thin wool peacoats lose their shape in two winters. Ready for the one that lasts a decade.
Men dressing up jeans and a t-shirt
A well-cut peacoat over jeans is one of the highest-leverage outfits in menswear. Ten seconds to put on, looks like effort.

Questions & Answers
Frequently asked questions
How much does a custom navy peacoat cost?
Our wool-cashmere peacoat starts at $599. The free cotton test coat is included in the price, there is no separate fitting fee. The price does not change based on color or lining choice.
Can I have it longer or shorter than a standard peacoat?
Yes. Peacoat length is a choice, not a fixed rule. The traditional naval cut ends at the hip and reads sharp and military. A few inches longer covers the seat and reads closer to a short overcoat. You specify the length you want on the measurement form, and you will see it on the cotton test coat before we cut any wool, so you can change your mind at no cost.
What is the wool-cashmere blend?
It is a dense 18-ounce blend of wool and cashmere. The wool gives it shape, weight and durability. The cashmere gives it a softer hand and a quiet sheen. The fabric blocks wind and holds its silhouette through years of wear, unlike thinner department-store peacoats.
How long does it take to make?
Usually 4 to 6 weeks from the day your measurements are confirmed via the test coat. The test coat itself takes 2 to 3 weeks. So plan on 6 to 9 weeks total from order to final coat in your hands. If you have a deadline, contact us and we will tell you honestly whether we can meet it.
What if the test coat doesn’t fit perfectly?
That is exactly what the test coat is for. You try it on, send us pictures and your notes, and we adjust the pattern. There is no extra charge for fit corrections. We only cut the wool-cashmere after you have confirmed the fit on the cotton.
Can I order this in a fit other than slim?
Yes. The default cut is slim, but because every coat is made to your measurements, we can adjust the silhouette to a regular or fuller fit. Add a note at checkout and we will confirm before production.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We ship worldwide by DHL, UPS or FedEx with full tracking. Delivery is usually 3 to 7 business days once your coat is finished.
How do I pay?
Secure checkout through PayPal. You can pay with your PayPal balance or with any major credit or debit card through PayPal’s guest checkout, no PayPal account required.
What colors and linings are available?
Six wool-cashmere outer colors: navy, charcoal, black, camel, brown, and coffee brown. Thirty-three acetate lining colors and patterns, including burgundy, navy, gold, paisley and many more. The full list is in the color and lining selectors on this page.
How do I take care of it?
Dry clean only. With reasonable care, an 18-ounce wool-cashmere peacoat will hold its shape and look for a decade or more. Hang it on a wide wooden hanger between wears, brush it down with a soft clothes brush after wet weather, and dry-clean it once or twice a season.

Men’s Outerwear Fit Guide
How a Men’s Coat Should Fit
A coat is the first thing people see and the piece that has to work hardest, over a shirt one day and a suit or heavy knit the next. That makes fit a balancing act: sharp enough to look tailored, roomy enough to layer without pulling. A coat made to your measurements settles that for good. You choose the length and the fit, we cut the shoulders, chest, and sleeve to your body with the right room to layer, and a free test garment confirms it on you before your final cloth is cut.
Outerwear is the most enduring thing in most wardrobes, worn daily through a whole season and returned to winter after winter. Built to your frame in quality cloth, a good coat is something you own and love for years, not a purchase you second-guess. This guide covers the fits, the lengths, and the points to check so yours is right from the first wear.
Step One
Choose your fit
Slim
Shaped close to the body over a shirt or fine knit, for a sharp, defined line. Best if you mostly wear your coat over lighter layers and want a clean silhouette.
Standard
Comfortable room to layer a jacket or knit underneath without strain, while keeping a clean line. The most versatile fit for everyday wear across the season.
Relaxed
Generous through the body and shoulder for a contemporary, easy drape and room for heavy layers. Ideal if you want maximum warmth and a modern look.
Athletic
Cut for a built frame, with extra room through the chest and shoulders and a trimmer waist, so a muscular build layers comfortably without the coat looking boxy.
You also choose the length, from a hip-length car coat to a mid-thigh topcoat or a full overcoat below the knee, and we cut it to your height so the proportions are right.
Step Two
The fit checkpoints
Shoulders
The shoulder sits cleanly at or just past your own, structured enough to hold the coat’s line but never overhanging or pulling. On outerwear the shoulder carries the whole garment, so we cut it to you.
Chest & layering room
The coat closes comfortably over the layers you actually wear, with room to move your arms and no strain across the back. We cut in the layering allowance you tell us you need.
Sleeve
The sleeve is long enough to cover a jacket cuff and reach the base of your hand, so no shirt or jacket peeks out in the cold, and cut clean so it does not bunch.
Length & drape
The hem falls at the length you chose, cut to your height, and the coat hangs straight and clean from the shoulder with no flaring or pulling. This is what makes a coat look considered rather than bought off a rail.
Every coat is made to your measurements with no standard sizing, in the fit and length you choose, with the room to layer built in. A free test garment confirms the shoulders, chest, sleeve, and length on your body before your final cloth is cut, and it is yours to keep.
Your Worries, Answered
The doubts most men have, and why you can relax
Coats never fit right once I layer underneath. Either they are tight over a jacket or huge over a shirt. Can you solve that?
Yes, because we build the layering room in on purpose. Tell us what you actually wear under your coat, a suit jacket, a heavy knit, both, and we cut the chest and back to close comfortably over it while still looking clean on its own. You confirm exactly that room on the free test garment before the final cloth is cut.
I have never bought a coat I could not try on first. How do I know it will fit?
Because you do try it on first. We make a free test garment in a stand-in cloth to your measurements and post it to you. You put it on over your usual layers, check the shoulders, chest, sleeve, and length, and send us your notes and photos. Only once you are happy do we cut your final cloth, so the finished coat is a fit you have already approved.
I am nervous I will measure myself wrong.
You do not have to be exact. Our guide walks you through each measurement, a friend or a local tailor can help, and if you are unsure you can send your best numbers. The free test garment is there to catch anything slightly off, we see the fit on your body and adjust, so a first-try measurement is completely normal.
A coat like this is a big spend. What is my safety net?
Nothing final, and nothing costly, is cut until you have approved the fit on the free test garment, so you are never gambling on a coat you have not seen on your body. And a coat is worn more than almost anything else you own, most days for a whole season, so the cost spread across years of wear is usually very small for something you rely on daily.
Will I still love it in five years, or will it feel dated?
A coat is exactly where buying to keep pays off. We cut a timeless line rather than a trend, in quality cloth built to last, so it wears in beautifully and holds its shape season after season. Most men find their coat becomes the one they reach for every day of winter, and years on it still feels like theirs. It is made to be owned and enjoyed for a long time, not replaced.
What if it arrives and something is still not right?
The final coat is cut to the exact fit you approved on the test garment, so surprises are rare by design. If a small tweak is ever needed, the finished coat carries seam allowances so a local tailor can fine-tune it, and you can always contact us and we will help make it right.
What if my weight changes over the years?
Your finished coat is made with seam allowances, so a local tailor can adjust it within reason if your shape shifts, and its layering room gives it natural flexibility. We also keep your measurements on record, so ordering another piece that fits is simple whenever you want one.
