It can get quite cold in Japan during the Winter, although this depends as to where one lives in the country. The coldest weather of course occurs in the northern island of Hokido. As a result some schools have uniform coats. Our information on school coats is limited at this time. Not all schools with uniforms have uniform coats. The state schools in particular may have a unifirm, but allow the children to wear non-uniform coats in cold weather. Some may have a geneeral color rule. The private schools are much more likely to have a winter coat as part of the uniform. Here an over-coat style is quite common. The most cmmon color is blue.
