I'd be sweating my arse off in that, from the warmth and the exertion of carrying it. Only way to cope would be to wear nothing underneath
Boco couldn't catch a cold. But if he did, it would be Top Lot.

That coat is going to be very heavy. I’m betting 20 - 25 pounds or so. You most likely will get tired just wearing it. Not as heavy as you might think, women wear such coats all the time, you telling us your weaker then some society lady You want heavy I have a buffalo coat that was my grandads it weighs a bit over 47#, sadly it’s to small for me nowadays but as a young small guy I wore it a good bit warm as heck and heavy you bet

Looks like a combo beaver coat/hospital gown in that 2nd pic... That high back slit is common in coats meant to be worn while in the saddle on horseback often such coats have fasteners that turn the flaps into leg coverings

I like it , I would like a beaver coat , little different style
I keep saying I am going to skin my dog and get her tanned when she kicks it , such a nice soft coat , would make a great collar.

I had a men’s stroller made of coyotes years back, sold it for the reasons guys list above. I would buy or have another made if it were a lighter more sheared type fur.
