October 27, 2013: My new Snap-On jacket . . .
Read MoreI bought myself a winter coat for the first time in many, many years. For the longest time, I didn't wear a coat in the winter, preferring instead to dress in layers whenever possible. But with a convertible now sitting in my garage again, I figured I needed something to wear when I cruise with the top down in the middle of winter.
My favorite aspect of living in northern Georgia is that the winters are mid, especially compared to where I grew up in central Pennsylvania. So I don't actually need a heavy winter coat like I used to have when I was a kid. The Snap-On Tools coat in this series of photos is lightweight, but also lined and should work fine.
