A very clever and unique idea! Very well executed, too.

Very unique styling there! The buttons lend it an air of 'dressiness' that I wouldn't have expected from it.
I'll jump his wagon also. A job well done!

Man, that looks fantastic!
As a dreamer of dreams, and a travelin' man, I have chalked up many of miles, read dozens of books about heros and crooks and learned much from both of their styles.

Impressive work!
Sorry for the passing of your friend. 
You've inspired me to do a SAP myself.

Lad, that's absolutely wicked!!
Your giving this Canadian a whole bunch of ideas right now! Admittedly, when I wear a peacoat in winter with my kilt I just leave the bottom button undone. This looks much finer for sure. I like the arc cutaway as well, good idea! It seems that you maintain much more fabric there in the front than a normal cutaway, making it warmer still.
Aces lad, aces!

Re: [b]Peacoat to... PseudoBraemer...?[/b]
Thanks again all. To all my cold weather friends. It was around 35 degrees when I wore it last and I was very very warm. And thats without a liner. The best feature is that it holds off the wind when buttoned up. I will not hesitate to try this again with a different color wool dress coat! Again, if I can get off my behind I will post better pics of the front and the back so you can see the split in the back. I think everyone should give it a try. If I can do it...
