New coat! I’ve needed this for some time. And it’s wonderful. It’s burgundy, thin, with real down, windproof, stitched in curving channels, and so compressible one pocket contains a bag you can put it into if you turn out to overheat. Got it from Amazon. And the only thing I’ll say is—get a size larger than you think you’ll need.
My feather allergy has meant I’ve stayed away from down all my life, but, y’know, I don’t sleep with this one: it lives in the closet, and the windproof fabric doesn’t leak feathers. And *warm*. It’s about a third of an inch thick, and it’ll get a test when the temperature gets below 35, but it is real promising!
It’s so nice to have a coat without holes in the lining.  Jane’s threatened to make that old coat disappear, and now, well, I might not miss it.

Yay! It is so great to get something that does exactly what you need it to do — and in a color you like.
Off topic but interesting article: http://space.mit.edu/home/tegmark/PDF/multiverse_sciam.pdf
Now, if you were like Bren, you’d tell Jane that your coat is comfortable and still wearable around the house or the yard, and that you won’t wear it out in public.
Guys are like that, we find something we like that’s comfortably broken-in, and we don’t want to part with it. My closet is full of things like that. (Hello? Goodwill? I have a BUNCH of clothes I can’t wear anymore.)
Jane has a sewing machine. You have seats which need cushions. A coat need not go all of the way away!
Lol—it’s a scarred but still wearable scuffed brown leather bomber jacket, kind of thin, but comfy…that Jane detests. I blush to say a workman left it at our house some, oh, nearly 15 years ago and declined to come back and pick it up, though we did call. It was comfy but already had an iffy lining. I have a spiff pea-coat style navy wool dress length coat that I use for Occasions. But this brown jacket has been my go-to in winter. Nearly 15 years more wear haven’t helped it. But I’ll still use it for yard work.
Sounds perfect for yard work.
Looks like Jane with her sewing skills could sew a new lining for it and leave just enough of the old lining to sew the new one to. . . ?
It sounds easy, but doing a good job of re-lining something is challenging for a professional…
