Short answer

Choose cloth for the places and seasons where you expect to wear these overcoats. Ask the tailor about fibre, weight, weave and care for the specific options; a city's name alone does not determine the right cloth.

Double-faced cashmere for the serious north, heavy flannel and wool–cashmere blends for the mid-winter cities, with storm details discussed in the room.

June takes lighter weights; September returns to flannel and outer-cloth planning for the winter ahead.

The full cloth books span fresh open weaves through four-season high-twist to winter flannels and cashmere blends. Bring the tailor your calendar; the shortlist comes back two or three cloths wide.

The itinerary is a proposal: months are planned, dates and venues confirmed individually. Final quotations are confirmed in writing before you commit.

Questions

How long should an overcoat be?+

Long enough to cover what it protects — typically to the knee for city coats. Proportion with your height decides the final line.

Is cashmere worth it for an overcoat?+

For warmth without weight, yes — the tour’s northern clients rarely choose anything else after their first winter.

Can an overcoat be tailored over a suit?+

That is how the fitting is done — worn over your heaviest layer so the drape is judged honestly.

When does Bonturberg visit Chicago?+

Under the proposed 2027 programme, Chicago is planned for June and September; dates and venues are confirmed individually as the window approaches.
