When it comes to men’s winter coats, some styles are designed to be worn for a season, while others have the character and timeless styling to become a genuine wardrobe staple. The Gabicci Vintage Winston Melton Velvet Collar Overcoat is firmly in the latter category.
Available from Wildvine Clothing, this sophisticated forest green overcoat combines classic tailoring, a distinctive velvet collar and unmistakable retro influences to create a statement piece for the colder months. The Winston is currently available for £189 with nationwide delivery from Wildvine Clothing.
Gabicci Vintage Winston Overcoat in Forest Green
The first thing that sets the Gabicci Vintage Winston Overcoat apart is its rich forest green colour.
Instead of opting for the traditional black or navy men's overcoat, the deep green shade adds personality while remaining remarkably versatile. It can be dressed up with tailoring or worn with smart-casual clothing for a more relaxed vintage-inspired look.
The coat features a three-quarter length silhouette, classic notch lapels and a single-breasted design with a concealed button placket, giving the front a clean and sophisticated appearance.
A Velvet Collar Adds the Retro Detail
The standout feature is undoubtedly the dark green velvet collar.
The contrasting texture gives the coat a distinctive vintage character without making the design overly theatrical. Combined with the structured tailoring, it creates a look that will appeal particularly to anyone who appreciates Mod fashion, vintage menswear and classic British-inspired style.
The design also has subtle links to 1950s Teddy Boy styling, particularly through the longer silhouette and velvet collar, while Gabicci's cleaner aesthetic keeps the overall look contemporary and wearable.
A Wool Blend Melton Winter Coat
The Winston is constructed from 50% wool and 50% polyester Melton fabric, providing a substantial winter-weight outer layer. The lining combines polyester and viscose, with a micro-jacquard sateen sheen lining adding another layer of detail inside the coat.
This makes the Winston an appealing option for anyone searching for a men's wool blend overcoat, men's winter coat or smart winter coat with something a little different from the usual designs.
The coat is also dry clean only, helping protect the fabric and maintain its tailored appearance.
Classic Tailoring with Plenty of Detail
The Winston isn't short on traditional tailoring details.
It features:
- Three-quarter length design
- Forest green wool blend Melton fabric
- Dark green velvet collar
- Classic notch lapels
- Single-breasted construction
- Concealed button placket
- Two side flap pockets
- Right-side ticket pocket
- Left breast pocket
- Four non-working buttons on each cuff
- Gabicci Vintage signature buttons
- Micro-jacquard lining
- Centre vent to the rear
- Detachable metallic Gabicci Vintage G emblem
The ticket pocket is particularly effective for adding that classic Mod menswear influence, while the detachable Gabicci Vintage G emblem gives you the option of a slightly more understated finish.
How to Wear the Gabicci Winston Overcoat
The versatility of a well-cut forest green overcoat is one of its biggest strengths.
For a traditional smart look, pair the Winston with a shirt, tailored trousers and polished Chelsea boots. The concealed fastening keeps the coat looking clean and refined over formal clothing.
For a more relaxed Mod-inspired outfit, try the coat with dark trousers, a fine-gauge roll neck and classic boots or retro footwear.
You can also dress it down with knitwear and denim while allowing the forest green Melton fabric and velvet collar to remain the focal point.
The deep green colour makes it particularly useful if you already have black or navy coats in your wardrobe and want something that offers a little more individuality.
