Ummm ... I don't get it?

3/4 sleeve coats for winter.

Defeats the purpose a bit doesn't it?

Picture it ...

It's sub-zero degrees (plus or minus a bit of exaggeration) and pouring with rain, and so you put your coat on to keep warm and dry.

Your coat, with its 3/4 sleeves.

Presumably too, since you're doing the fashionable thing with your 3/4 sleeve coat, you're also going to have nice long full-length top sleeves poking out from underneath as well.

It's going to be lovely sitting at work (or where ever) with sopping sleeves all day, isn't it? Assuming your arms haven't fallen off at the elbows from frostbite.

Of course, you might have worn a 3/4 sleeve top under your 3/4 sleeve coat, therefore avoiding the sopping sleeves ... but there's still the frostbite.

Don't even get me started on the non-waterproof side of things.

These must be winter coats for wearing indoors only.
