How can you tell if a wool coat is high quality?
To tell if a wool coat is high quality, first check the fabric content label. The highest-quality coats will be made primarily of wool, while lower-quality coats will usually blend wool with other less expensive fibers like acrylic. Next, take a close look at the stitching all over the piece. Well-made coats will have even, tight stitching throughout. Finally, examine the buttons or other fasteners. Loose buttons, snaps and zippers that are difficult to operate may indicate a lower-quality coat. Find a range of wool coats on 1stDibs.
