I call them jackets, my friend calls them coats. Is there a difference?
-
-
in my book a jacket is more something that is stylish and fashionable and a coat is more functional, possibly waterproof and warm -
Of course. Jackets are short, coats are long (there are also short ones, but they are of the same style as that long coat if you know what I mean). Give me an image and I will tell you if it is a jacket or a coat.
Having said that - maybe there are some type of middle ground where you can not decide, but majority is still distinctive.Comment

You can call a jacket a sports jacket but you don't call a coat a sports coat. Hope that clears it all up.Comment

Google images "mens coat" is perfect illustration of what a coat is. Then "mens jacket" for jackets (although that side of images have many coats in them, from that we could imply that calling coat a jacket is more acceptable than calling jacket a coat, lol)Comment

Up here in winterville 'jacket' usually pertains to something lighter, shorter, and less warm. Eg: My GFY leather jacket is perfect for fall and early winter, but I have to hang it up and start wearing my heavier winter COAT when the temps drop well below freezing.
But yes, sport coat -- sport jacket; totally interchangeable.Promote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!

Dammit. .. let's try this analogy :
You can call a jacket a leather jacket, but you don't call a coat, a leather coat.
Hope that finally clears up the issue.Comment

a jacket can probably get you laid more than a coat.

There absolutely is.
However:
Coat (clothing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)Speakers of American English sometimes informally use the words jacket and coat interchangeably
"There is no difference" and "sometimes informally (and only in American English, not even real English) use interchangeably" are different things.Comment

Who of those who claim there is no difference would always call ALL of these 5 either all coats, or all jackets.

this is a smoking jacket and a great example of why there is no difference between a jacket and a coat any more.
a smoking jacket meets all the requirements to be a coat, and fails the requirements to be a jacket. but it's not a [smoking] coat, it's a smoking jacket.
history and semantics.

why is the ESL guy arguing the english language?
people have preferences for each but they absolutely mean the same thing.webmaster at pimproll dot comComment

Oh, and it is even easier to know the difference between the 2 for those who are not English speakers. Reason - in most languages those 2 words translates into 2 different words which mean 2 different types of clothes.
So lame attempt to insult backfired once again at the libby
Again - sometimes they may be interchangeable (as I initially admitted in my first post).Comment

I call 1-3 coats and 4-5 jackets... I always think of coats as a furry or fluffy material... jackets are usually waterproof.
Edit: although you do have RAINcoats... and JEANjackets lolComment

Yeah, but lets see my argument, which is pretty simple:
If it is "the same" (and not, as wikipedia put it, "sometimes informally used interchangeably") people should be calling each of those either coat or jacket with the same confidence and conviction.
For example you have a guest wearing #1 and say "take of you coat". And then have a guest wearing #5 and say "take of your coat". And in both instances you should feel the same confidence and conviction while saying those phrases, because it is "the same"....
If you follow my drift..
That is why I say no to "it is the same" and yes to "sometimes informally used interchangeably".Comment

A jacket is a mid-stomach–length garment for the upper body. A jacket typically has sleeves, and fastens in the front or slightly on the side. A jacket is generally lighter, tighter-fitting, and less insulating than a coat, which is outerwear. Some jackets are fashionable, while others serve as protective clothing.Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about thatComment

You stitch together a solid argument. Get it, stitch, yuk yuk. Unfortunately, the fact remains there is no difference. The line has been blurred over the centuries such that there's no difference. You'd never call that goose down jacket a goose down coat, etc., et al, on&on.Comment

You don't call a top hat cap and you don't call a coat jacket. Clear distinctions in the accepted norm.Comment
