There are a number of these old soviet military uniform coats for sale online for decent prices esp. for a sheepskin coat. I found one in my size but I am debating if it is just too silly. I am tired of being cold.
I wear a decent number of leather coats and great coats but nothing that is this much of a statement. I have no fantasies about being in the Red Army or whatever but it would be kind of neat to have the historical connection.
I don't think this is a statement. I used to wear a british red jacket daily during my punk and heavy drugs years. Rather similar to this one:
