November, 1995
The new breed of outerwear jackets that come in cover-your-buft lengths can pull double duty. Worn in town or in the country, they weather the elements in fine style thanks to sturdy construction and wind- and water-resistant fabrics.

Quilted microfiber barn jacket with a suede-and-corduroy collar, from Nautica by David Chu ($220); and a wool tweed shirt by MNW ($150).
