Yeah, but the liner usually messes up the billowy-ness.

I may freeze my ass off, but I'll look good doing it.

*snerkle* Yes, I have, on rare occasion, traded comfort and thermal protection for just a little more of the billow. Ya won't tell any one, will ya?

OTOH, "The Incredibles" has given me a bit more pause with respect to the whole cape-like thing...

Noocyte: you're presumably warm-blooded, so insisting on a coat that actually keeps you warm makes sense. Not really a consideration for Angel, though.

The entire cast of BtVS/AtS seem to have rather more outerwear than called for in Southern California most of the year...

No touching release dates!

Fear not, SHINYSEVEN; I'll not be freezing the cockles off my heart for A Look (my genes are coded for tropical climes, so my tolerance for cold is less-than-legendary). I layer like filo dough.

Still, if I know I won't be outdoors for very long, I will sometimes make concessions...

As for the outerwear issue: yah, I've often thought that these folks must be broiling in SoCal, what with all the running and the kicking and the fearing for the fate of the world and all that.

Then again, you get folks running around the Matrix with shades in dark clubs, and still being able to land a punch. In Silver Screen Land, I suppose it really is better to look good than to feel good. And they look mahvellous!

So, have we established that the Iconic Coat is a 1200-bananna Hugo Boss I'll never be able to afford and even if I could, I'd sooner spend it on a really banging sub-woofer (cos you gotta have priorities)?

Now that Winter's here, I've pretty much switched to what I call my Gundam coat. It's this embarassingly thick multi-layered Columbia jacket. And my heavier shoes.

When I walk around outside now I feel more like a big stompy mech than a Lucid/vampire/Witch Hunter.

Well, people 'round here are making brown coats, so why can't there be some enterprising knockoff artiste out there reproducing Angel's gear? Hell, the only really expensive part is the little tag that says "Hugo Boss."

Now, the racing jacket he picked up in Rome, that'd be expensive.

Does Anyone know where I can buy a coat like Angel's one in the opening credits? I've looked all over the web and haven't found anything close!

Yah, I've been searching intermittently since I posted this, and also come up dry.

Closest thing I've found to a lead was this link:

http://www.smgfan.com/articles/b37.htm

which seems to indicate (end of article) that the "Iconic" opening-credits coat may be a DKNY (cha-CHING!!).

I suppose there are ways to track down this information, but I'll be poached if I know what they are...and if I have the energy to find out ('specially since the chances of the effort yielding anything I could remotely justify spending the wampum for are one in...a very large number).

Still, if anyone out there has some kind of link to TPTB, I'd be grateful for a scoop...
