At the time of the war one of the major Scottish company called Crombie started producing garments for war and supplied it to the British officers. This was the time that the English overcoats became popular and even today this Melton fabric is referred to as Crombie Fleece.
The first design of the greatcoats were double breasted in style and had six regimental buttons which was worn with hidden buttons closed. As for any typical military garment these greatcoats were waisted and had peak lapels. Some of the other characteristics are the flap pockets, breast pocket, a single back vent and two cuff buttons.
