Polo coat

Kind of overcoat

A polo coat, also known as a camel coat, is a men's overcoat associated with polo players in England. Camelhair was the fabric at first, but later camelhair and wool blends became standard due to its higher durability.[1] The terms polo coat and camel coat are thus synonymous.
