I never before thought that it's a lot of coats, I just thought that it's practical. One is for really cold weather, I mean -15° to -20°C and below. And the other winter coats, which one I use is more related to what I'm doing or where I'm going. Everyday or sporty.

The spring / fall jackets I have, have more color choices according to mood, but again weather is the biggest influence because in case of photographing, I like to have my hands free, so I very rarely use an umbrella. I rather wear a raincoat or a gore-tex jacket that keeps me dry and even cold wind isn't a problem.

But then again if I lived in Australia, I probably would only have perhaps two coats / jackets because it would be too hot wear a jacket, even in the colder months.

I wonder how many jackets other Finns admit they have? Let's see if I can lure @eveuncovered, @celestal or @tarazkp here to count their jackets / coats. :)
