M&H Mateo coat vs Lawrence coat
Hey guys,
New hire here going through uniform ordering. I'd love to hear the recommendations on which coat to get with the allotment. It looks like the Mateo Melton Coat is the wool one which sounds good for me as I live in ORD and will possibly see NYC in the future. The Lawrence All Weather coat looks like a solid rain coat but lacks the warmth. I'm just looking for a solid uniform compliant jacket for commuting to work on the train and for the walk arounds. I'm leaning towards the Mateo coat to handle our Chicago winters. Any tips or advice?
Thanks!

I use the raincoat. It does have a liner but I removed it. I wear it over the Blazer, Oct to March. It’s been fine for cold walk arounds and waiting for hotel vans. It packs easily when I change into cities for my commute. Honestly, 80% of pilots don’t wear either coat, but I don’t like freezing, and you never know where you will end up on any given trip.

That said, I DON’T have a North Face myself. But I see others pulling it off. Look for the younger guys in North Face with luggage works bags walking the terminal. Those are crewmembers on duty thinking they’re incognito. ;-)
