Men's Wool Overcoats
The overcoat has been the cornerstone of British menswear for over two centuries — the layer that finishes an outfit and signals that the wearer means business. Gloverall's men's overcoat collection brings military-inspired designs and classic winter staples together with the same attention to material and craft that defines every coat the brand makes. The central piece is the Hynes Harris Tweed Coat — a full-length coat that speaks quietly and carries considerable authority.
The Hynes Harris Tweed Coat
Named after Syd Hynes — the tough, no-nonsense English rugby player known for discipline and understated authority — the Hynes Harris Tweed Coat strikes the same balance: structured but not stiff, refined but never precious. It is crafted from Harris Tweed®, woven on the Outer Hebrides from 100% pure new wool — one of the world's most protected textiles, made by hand in an unbroken tradition stretching back over a century. The cut is classic: a button-down fly front, angled front pockets for everyday utility, and a single back vent for ease of movement. Available in Brown Houndstooth and Charcoal Herringbone — two patterns that read differently in different lights and improve with wear.
The Hynes Coat
The Hynes Coat takes the same silhouette and name as its tweed counterpart but delivers it in a wool blend — a cleaner, more urban-facing cloth that suits city dressing particularly well. The fly-front construction and angled pockets remain; the result is a coat with the same clean lines but a smoother hand. Available in Navy.
How to Wear a Men's Wool Overcoat
The overcoat is the finishing layer — it goes on last and sets the tone for everything beneath it. The Hynes Harris Tweed wears best over tailoring or structured knitwear, its houndstooth or herringbone pattern bringing texture to a suit or a heavy lambswool jumper. For weekends, a wool overcoat over a chore shirt and heavy trousers gives a relaxed silhouette without losing the coat's inherent formality. Those who want a shorter, more utility-focused outer layer should look to the men's jackets — the Greenwell Anorak in particular — while the Original Monty Duffle Coat sits in between: less formal than an overcoat, more structured than a jacket.
