A wool coat is where the sourcing behind Gabriela Hearst becomes most legible. Merino wool from the family farm in Uruguay is traceable from the sheep to the seam, and it is joined by Italian wool woven at mills the house has worked with for years. Double face cashmere, a refined cloth finished on both sides to create a soft, structured fabric with a luxurious hand. Some coats are crafted from 100% wool, while others are considered blends of wool and cashmere, offering a softer hand and elevated warmth while maintaining the structure of classic outerwear. Each piece is produced in limited quantities.

The silhouettes hold their shape without stiffness. A long wool coat falls past the calf in a clean column, double breasted styles are built on a peaked lapel and a defined waist, oversized shapes are drafted from the shoulder so the volume looks intentional rather than consuming. A wool short coat cropped near the hip works over tailored pants and denim alike. Colours remain tonal and complementary: camel, black, charcoal, ivory, and navy, alongside subtle patterns such as checks.

An Italian wool winter coat balances warmth and structure with a refined silhouette, while cashmere details add softness and a considered sense of contrast at the neck and cuff. Interfacings are chosen so a lapel rolls rather than creases, pockets are set into the seam to preserve the front, and hems are weighted to hang true.
