raccoon coat
Twenties collegiate garment
A raccoon coat is a bulky fur coat made from raccoon pelts, associated with 1920s college culture and the Jazz Age.
Young men wore them to football games and in open cars, making them symbols of Roaring Twenties affluence and youthful exuberance.
The style faded but resurfaces occasionally as vintage fashion.
