I ordered the coat in white vintage plaid which appears as a soft cream color with greyish plaid. It is very stylish. I found it to be an ideal coat for travel because it is very light weight, folded easily to be stored in the overhead compartment on the plane and remained unwrinkled when unfolded. I purchased the coat to wear to Washington DC while I attended the inauguration on January 20th. On this most memorable day I was toasty warm standing on the Capitol Mall in what was reported to be temps in the teens and twenties with a brisk wind! My heart was warmed by what I witnessed and this coat made it possible for me to be comfortably warm for the duration of my time spent outside in the above mentioned temps which totalled about 7 hrs. Just as a note I was also wearing the nuptse fur II winter boot which my feet had a love affair with!! Thanks Backcountry!
