I'm familiar with that garment but actually I'm not looking for a fitted coat, I'm looking for an overcoat with sleeves. Cloaks get boring pretty quickly, and I want to make a nice winter coat for someone I know. Thanks though.

You might be interested in looking at the surviving "pourpoint of Charles of Blois", which dates to the later 14th century. If you plug that name into the appropriate search field at <http:// www.heatherrosejones.com/survivinggarments/choosegarment.php>, it'll give you a list of various publications that have information on it.
