New long winter coat
I'm looking at some new coats for winter and I found 3 that I generally like.
A bit about me: I'm a fair skinned, red headed, 5'11 (180cm), 81~kg male from London. I do tend towards Jeans (Selvedge), tee and hoodie, though I am expand my range a bit with wide legged cargos from Sandro and Uniqlo U collections.
I have my eye on this JW Anderson trench coat (pic 1?) which I think could be a bit more of a well rounded coat as I tend to run quite warm.
I am also thinking of a Lemaire Wool Duffel coat (pic 2) which I wonder, with me running warm, would only really be sensible for the colder winter months.
I also like a Dries Van Noten woolen coat (pic 3?). I've yet to try on any of them and am really thinking about waiting on sales. I do worry that the woolen coats, though very nice, will feel like I can only wear them with a tee as they'll keep me too warm, whereas the cotten Trench by Anderson, would be more of a year round coat.

The Lemaire wool duffel is a thick, heavy wool.
So it’ll be much warmer than the JW Anderson trench. And it will probably look strange if you wear it when it’s warmer out tbh.
Stylistically though the duffel coat is also a different vibe than the other two. It’s more rugged and boxier.
I like the JWA trench, I think it makes sense if you want something you can wear year round. But in the winter I think you’d probably need to layer it with a jacket or something or it’ll be too cold.
yeah it would need layering
Dries>JWA>Lemaire imo but if you are looking for a year round wear (especially because you mentioned that you run warm) i might lean towards the JWA one as making more sense
