Design with me: vintage boy coat. Part one: inspiration.

I have been making this one coat pattern for my girl now for ages. It is Violet Field Threads Valentina coat and I love it. I want a similar style coat for my boy. One that I never get tired of and one that will always look amazing.

Inspiration
I was looking for a ready made pattern to buy, but could not really find one that is meeting my expectetions, so I thought I could design one myself.

So in conclusion: I want a coat that is
  • tunic length (just over bum)
  • Raglan sleeves
  • Collar looking nice buttoned up and down.
  • One or two row of buttons
  • Welt pocket
  • Slight A-line
Perhaps:
  • A collar with fleece
  • A back-pleat.
