We Want: A Wool Coat Under $500
Already sick of your puffer? Looking for something a bit more clean-cut and work-appropriate? A wool coat is the answer, but a good one always feels hard to find and they tend to be expensive. A bit counterintuitive, but one of the best times to buy such an item can be deep into winter, when cold-weather gear starts to be discounted. We’ve tracked down 12, all priced under $500.
