Questions and answers

Which coat is warmer?

Both are labeled heavyweight with roughly 90% down fill, so warmth is close. The A coat's longer cut and attached hood may seal in more heat around the head and hips.

Which has a better hood?

The B coat's hood detaches, which suits milder days or wearing a hat instead. The A coat's hood is fixed with a drawstring, so it stays put in wind.

Does either come in XL?

Only the A coat, which runs XS to XL. The B coat stops at L, so larger shoppers should look at A.

Which is easier to clean?

The A listing says both machine wash and dry clean, which is contradictory; treat dry clean as the safer bet for down. The B listing gives no care instructions, so check the label.

Is the B coat worth choosing over A?

If you fit XS to L and want a detachable hood plus a knee-length matte finish, yes. If you need XL or a fixed hood, A is the better fit.

Do both have pockets and a zip front?

Yes. Both list two side pockets and a front zip closure.
