Question:
Just curious, what's the consensus on popping peacoat collars around here? Old-school-classic or abercrombie-pretentious?
Personally, I think it looks better popped - yet I don't want to come off the wrong way, especially as a young guy (18 yrs) who has yet to earn his worth. As for functionality, I believe they were meant to be popped too - or I could be mistaken.
Thoughts?

Answer:
I sometimes pop when it's really cold or when there's excessive moisture in the air. I hate having a cold neck.
Answer:
My opinion, as a young guy (19), is that they don't look good popped. Whenever I wear mine I pair it with a scarf for added style / warmth
