Any suggestions on a classy coat?

I am a guy and I live in the Midwest. Every year it starts to get cold I think, I should find a decent jacket. And I always put it off, wear hooded sweatshirts until it’s time to break out my carhart. I am a minister and graduate student so I am looking for something a little nicer than a hooded sweatshirt. When you show up a hospital call wearing a shirt/tie with a HS baseball hoddie you (I) look like a tool. Also, church work and graduate work doesn’t pay to hot so cheap is the key. Any suggestions?

What price range where you trying to keep under and what size are you?

I'd like to stay below 50$, as long as i can find something lasting in that price range and wear a 2x. I have a nice heavy trenchcoat for when it is real cold out so not as heavy as that and a shorter length.

Thanks for the help.

A whole page of choices from KingsizeDirect:

edit: You might have to copy/paste those first 2 links...I'm getting a weird error from WOOT when I try to click on them here, but they work fine going straight to the page.

Navy pea coat. Always looks sharp. They usually have them at Army-Navy surplus stores, not too expensive. And they're warm as can be. Get one that's in good shape, it'll last you for years.

I would look for a pea coat at Burlington Coat Factory.

Honestly, I've lucked out and found the coolest pea coats at thrift stores!

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
