EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from 1914, two American gentlemen are seen engaged in a lively conversation while taking a leisurely stroll through the wintry landscape. The crisp air is palpable as they bundle up against the cold in their stylish and warm coats from Sears, Roebuck and Co. The first gentleman wears a double-breasted coat with an astrakan fur collar and cuffs, and a quilted lining. The astrakan fur, a type of long-haired Siberian sheep's wool, provides an elegant and luxurious touch to the coat, while the quilted lining ensures that the cold is kept at bay. The double-breasted design adds a sense of sophistication and structure to the coat, making it a timeless piece for the winter season. The second gentleman dons a herringbone tweed overcoat with a half-belt at the back and pocket flaps. The herringbone pattern adds texture and visual interest to the coat, while the half-belt accentuates the waist and creates a flattering silhouette. The pocket flaps provide practicality and functionality, allowing the men to keep their hands warm in their pockets while on their walk. Both men accessorize their coats with walking sticks or canes, adding a touch of elegance and refinement to their winter attire. The first gentleman also wears a toque, a traditional Canadian hat, to keep his head and ears warm. The overall effect of their outfits is one of classic American style and wintertime charm. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when winter walks were a cherished pastime and the importance of a warm and stylish coat could not be overstated. The coats themselves, with their timeless designs and high-quality materials, remain as relevant today as they were over a century ago.
