coat length

Outerwear sizing dimension

Coat length refers to the length of an animal's fur, particularly in dogs and cats.

Breeds are typically categorized as short-coated, medium-coated, or long-coated: The breed standard specifies a medium coat length.

The term also applies to outerwear, describing how far down a coat extends on the body—hip length, knee length, or full length.
