They are barn coat haters! I can't wear my 20 year old Lands End barn coat without a lot of negative comments. It is useful. I live in the country. Nothing can hurt it. It's 2 front pockets hold my Kindle, wallet, and anything else I need. I like not having to carry a purse. And it's lined with some horse blanket looking fabric, and is very warm.

So I just tell people to go piss up a rope. Find something important to yammer about. I am not a fashion model, nor do I play one on TV.
