1. 32 oz cloth 1943 wool overcoat 38S - $sold
Incredibly warm, thick, and heavy dark green overcoat dating back to 1943. It is exceptionally rare to find a coat from this age in this condition. Hand-stitched details with a few loose threads, but other than that virtually no signs of wear. Size 38S, but please refer to measurements.

2. Long, heavy Swedish army coat - $50 shipped
There are no labels, but it does have original buttons and insignia. The buttons show three crowns and crossed swords. This coat, while just as heavy as the first, is made from a much smoother and luxurious wool. There are a few tiny moth nips and a 3" tear in the liner, but other than that this coat is in great shape.
