Surcoat

Surcoats were a type of loose-fitting outer garment worn, for the purpose of staying warm, by humanoid races overtop of either a cote or tunic.

Description
Surcoats came in a variety of styles. Variations included having sleeves, hoods, capes, or a combination of the three. They were typically made of either linen or samite.

At a cost of 20 gold pieces they offered a unique variety of hooded surcoat, designed for arctic environments, that they called a "peltcote".
