We have only limited information on German school coat at this time. We know nothing about the early-19th century. With the development of photography during the md-19th century we begin to see examples of the coats boys wore to school. We see some coats with fur. Even more common was fur trim and fur hasts. We see a lot of children in the late-19h century, at least children in coomfortable circunstaces wearing long overcoats. We note both single- and double-breased styling. Most boys' coats are dark colors in the 19th century. Some children, mosly gurls, wear light-colored coats. We still see long coats in the early-20th century, but gradually shorter-cut jackets become more common, for both boys and girls. After World War I, fur is used less on coats. After Workld War II we also no longer see boys commonly wearing overcoasts, but rather heavy jackets. Colorful ski jackets become popular in the 1970s.
