what is it w the hand in the coat instead of the pockets? lol
I'm pretty sure i read somewhere that these old coats had pockets on the inside of the coat too, so technically the hand could be in a pocket. Maybe. As for why people back in "the olden days" sometimes put their hands inside their coat rather than in the outside pockets, idk maybe it's warmer because of body heat? No idea. Just speculating.
that would explain the depictions of napolean bonaparte.
