Women's jacket and coat

Coats and jackets on this page are cut to go over knitwear rather than under it, in boiled wool, felted blends, down and leather. Cardigans worn as outerwear sit on the coatigans page, and the lighter knits are held with the women's jumpers one level up.

Choosing a coat to wear over knitwear

This page gathers coats and jackets cut to sit over a jumper. The shapes allow room through the shoulders and body, so a knit layer fits underneath without pulling. Fibres include boiled wool, down, wool blends and leather.

Boiled wool and felted blends

Boiled wool is wool that is knitted and then felted, which closes the surface. The result is dense and holds its shape well. On this page, boiled wool appears in a classic jacket with knit trim, a short jacket, a funnel neck coat, a duffle coat, a raglan coat, a v neck coat and a zipper coat.

Down and longline coats

A down filled coat is a shell packed with down or synthetic fill, cut for a light feel. A longline wool coat is tailored from woven wool cloth with structure and a longer cut. This page includes a long rain coat with hood and pockets, a longline two tone funnel neck coat, a cabin coat and a belted longline style. Fill type is on each product page. The care label governs cleaning.

Common questions

Will these coats fit over a jumper?
Yes, the coats and jackets on this page are cut to sit over a jumper. The shoulders and body have extra room, so a knit layer fits without pulling. Ordinary sizing still works, and sizing up is only needed for very thick knits.
What is boiled wool?
Boiled wool starts as knitted wool that is then felted. The process closes the surface, giving a dense, smooth fabric that holds its shape. It feels firm to the hand.
How should a wool coat be cared for?
Wool requires less washing than other fibres because it is naturally stain resistant and odour resistant, and it resists creasing, The Woolmark Company states. Each coat's own care label governs cleaning. The wash process is detailed in How to wash a wool or merino jumper.
