Introducing a digital pattern for the classic men’s single-breasted overcoat – Timeless Elegance Meets Functional Outerwear.

WHEN TO WEAR DESIGN 6009

This full-length overcoat elevates any cold-weather ensemble with classic tailoring and confident structure:

City Winters: A wardrobe staple over businesswear or knitwear for urban polish and warmth.

Evening Engagements: Layer over suits or turtlenecks for refined evening attire.

Everyday Cold Weather: Practical yet elegant—pair with jeans or tailored trousers for versatile, warm dressing.

KEY DESIGN FEATURES

Silhouette: Long, straight-cut shape with slight tapering at the waist for tailored structure.

Closure: Center front closure with three large buttons for clean, masculine finish.

Collar & Lapel: Traditional notch collar with structured shaping and defined edges.

Pockets: Two front double-welt pockets with flaps.

Sleeves: Two-piece set-in sleeves with elegant shaping and buttoned vents.

Back: Center back seam with a vent.

Lining & Structure: Full lining with padded shoulders.

Style: Refined winter essential with subtle power—cut to suit wool fabrics with weight and texture.

LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY

Advanced. Best suited for sewists experienced in tailored overcoats, structured collars, flap pocket construction, and lining assembly.

SEAM ALLOWANCES

No seam allowances by default. If an option to add them at 1 EUR is chosen, pattern will come with seam allowances included.

Please note: A single contour on the pattern pieces means no seam allowances are included. A double contour indicates seam allowances are included.

FABRIC RECOMMENDATIONS FOR MEN’S SEWING PATTERN 6009

Use warm, structured coating fabrics to maintain the tailored form:

Wool or wool-blend coating (solid, twill, or melton)
Brushed wool blends with body
Tonal lining for full inner coverage

Avoid soft, drapey, or lightweight materials—they compromise the integrity of the silhouette.
