{"product_id":"1970s-brown-afghan-coat","title":"1970s Afghan Shearling Coat – Chocolate Brown with Creamy Trims and Ivory Embroidery","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"357\" data-end=\"676\"\u003eA classic and deeply wearable Afghan coat from the 1970s, crafted in a rich chocolate brown suede with soft, creamy shearling trims and delicate off-white embroidery throughout. This is one of those pieces that instantly feels comforting and luxurious — plush, warm, and full of quiet character rather than overt drama.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"678\" data-end=\"1107\"\u003eThe coat features traditional Afghan construction with beautifully placed embroidery tracing the seams, cuffs, hem, and back, creating a gentle contrast against the dark brown suede. The creamy shearling trims frame the front opening, cuffs, and hem, adding texture, warmth, and that unmistakable 70s hippy-trail aesthetic. The colour combination is especially lovely here: deep cocoa brown paired with warm, buttery cream tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1109\" data-end=\"1432\"\u003eThe silhouette is relaxed and easy, designed to be worn open and layered. It works perfectly thrown over thick knits in winter, but is just as effective styled over dresses or blouses during the in-between seasons — the kind of coat that becomes part of your everyday life rather than something saved for special occasions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1434\" data-end=\"1536\"\u003eThis is a highly wearable, timeless Afghan with soul: understated, authentic, and endlessly versatile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasurements (taken flat)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePit to pit: 46 cm \/ 18.1 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWaist: 41 cm \/ 16.1 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHips \/ hem: 48 cm \/ 18.9 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShoulders: 39 cm \/ 15.4 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSleeve length (to start of fur): 52.5 cm \/ 20.7 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSleeve length (including fur): 65 cm \/ 25.6 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTotal length (to start of fur): 64 cm \/ 25.2 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTotal length (including fur): 78 cm \/ 30.7 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit \u0026amp; lining notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis Afghan coat has a pretty thick sherling lining, which significantly reduces the effective interior space. In addition, the leather is firmer and less supple than softer Afghans, with some areas of natural hardening, meaning there is less give and stretch when worn. Body measurements should be a few centimetres smaller than the flat garment measurements for a comfortable fit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEstimated modern size range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBest fit: XS to Small\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximate size equivalents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEU \/ DE: 34–36\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUK: 6–8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUS: 2–4\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1538\" data-end=\"1703\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1538\" data-end=\"1554\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1760\" data-end=\"1773\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1773\" data-end=\"1776\"\u003eVery good vintage condition with normal signs of wear consistent with age and use. The suede has some areas where the leather is somewhat stiff but not brittle. The suede shows gentle, even wear and patina, adding to the character of the piece. The shearling trims are plush and soft. The embroidery remains intact and well preserved. One of the closure hooks is rusty. Overall a strong, honest vintage Afghan that has been worn and loved, and is ready to be worn for many years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2178\" data-end=\"2357\"\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2203\" data-end=\"2206\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sehnsucht Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52081085186395,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/6278\/1531\/files\/94FC991A-ED87-4A78-AB22-C94807E82E97.jpg?v=1768906481","url":"https:\/\/www.sehnsuchtcollection.com\/products\/1970s-brown-afghan-coat","provider":"Sehnsucht Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
