John Lewis Wool Blend Epsom Coat

Camel overcoats were once required wearing for 1980s Wall Street execs; the dramatic double-breasted, knee-length designs in extravagant camel hair epitomised the era's celebration of excess. But it's not the '80s anymore, and we've THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED this Epsom coat that takes the spirit of that classic design into a more practical and modern format.

The mock horn buttons and a straight-faced navy lining add a premium feel for the wearer. We've opted for a robust camel-coloured wool blend here that’s lustrous to the eye, soft to the hand and comfortably drapey to wear.

As a base palette camel goes particularly well with denim, both light and dark, but if you want to go full Gordon Gekko it will work equally well with tailored suits.
