Another great experience with Hockerty
Nice shirt, just as I ordered it and made to measure to fit me.

Great addition

Perfect fit!
Hockerty Rocks! I ordered the Aguilar premium merino wool fabric for this waistcoat. Nothing off the rack comes close to how well it fits. The Aguilar is and exceptional gray pinstripe, very slight stretch. The piece is well finished, with high quality tailoring throughout. Highly recommended. This is the second item I’ve purchased. Will do so again.

As winter approaches, there is nothing more important than a versatile coat that can keep you cosy during the coming months but can still be an iconic addition to wear over all your outfits. There are a lot of coats to choose from but the one that this season everyone’s bringing out from their wardrobes is the trench coat.
The trench coat is an iconic wardrobe staple that you will find yourself wearing for years to come. It’s actually the most stylish form of a raincoat, traditionally made of durable and water-resistant gabardine cotton. It became a popular piece for soldiers to wear during the Boer and World Wars for its functional design. Besides the rain and mud friendly fabric, trench coats offer extra protection around the neck with their wide lapels and hook and eye latch, across the chest with their double breasted silhouette, and storm flap pockets to safely stow belongings. On top of all these practical benefits, trench coats have a comfortable and elegant design that make them one of the most versatile coats of all time. Find out why yours can easily become your go-to jacket for many occasions.
About our Car Coats
Think of the car coat as the modern, sleek cousin to the trench coat. It’s the go-to piece when you're looking for something both functional and stylish. If you've never tried a custom coat before, a car coat is the perfect place to start.
What Defines a Car Coat?
A car coat is a tailored piece of outerwear designed to fit comfortably and offer ease of movement. It's usually cut a bit shorter than other coats to make getting in and out of a car easier. Crafted to be both stylish and functional, it typically has minimal embellishments to offer a clean, modern look.
Why Is It Called a Car Coat?
The term "car coat" originated in an era when cars were a novel luxury. This coat was designed to provide comfort and warmth for early automobile drivers. It's cut to sit perfectly while you're seated, hence the name car coat. Even if your journey nowadays is more subway than sedan, the functionality remains appealing.
What is a Car Coat for Men?
For men, a car coat is more than just a piece of clothing. It's a statement of personal style and taste. Perfect for wearing over a suit or a casual outfit, its versatility makes it a must-have in any man's wardrobe. Crafted to be as unique as you are, it epitomizes modern-day practicality and style.
Car Coat vs Trench Coat
While both the car coat and the trench coat offer timeless style, they differ in length, purpose, and detailing. A car coat is generally shorter, ending around the mid-thigh, and aims for a clean, uncluttered look. Trench coats are longer and come with more embellishments like belts and epaulets. The choice between the two boils down to personal preference and need.
