Coat recommendations?

Posted by: mycroft in Life, the Universe, and Everything

Snow, snow, snow. And desert. And yaks.Shogun (Mycroft Junior, if you will) will be departing stateside in June to spend two years in Mongolia (yes, THAT Mongolia) teaching English to the Mongolians. For those of you not familiar with the Mongolian climate systems, it gets cold in Mongolia–as in -20 degrees Fahrenheit for portions of the year.

Therefore, Shogun needs a coat. A reeeeally warm coat. The longer, heavier, and more woolen the better. I’m having trouble finding such an animal. I had originally thought that it would be child’s play to find a 1960s-era Cold (ha!) War German or Soviet coat at a military surplus store, but searches both locally and online have yielded precisely nothing.

Recommendations sought.
