- Which is warmer in winter?
- The Stetson, with its wool blend, fur hood lining and fur cuffs, is built for cold. The Milwaukee relies on its zip-out vest liner, which you can remove in milder weather.
- Which is better for motorcycle riding?
- The Milwaukee. Its snap-close back expansion, leg straps and removable cape are made for riding. The Stetson is a dress coat with no riding features.
- Is the Milwaukee worth $175.00?
- At $175.00 at Milwaukee Leather as of November 6, 2026, it is a fair price for a full-length leather duster with a removable liner and cape. Compare it with the other two stores before you buy.
- Will the Stetson fit me if I am 5'7"?
- Yes, if you take size OS, which covers 5'4" to 5'11". Size PS is for shoppers 5'4" and under.
- Which lasts longer?
- Leather generally outlasts wool if you condition it, so the Milwaukee should last longer with care. Wool can pill and wear at the cuffs.
- Can I wear the Milwaukee in rain?
- Light rain is fine, but the leather is not described as waterproof. Dry it away from direct heat and recondition it afterward.
