Click here to be notified as soon as this product is shipping.
When will my order ship?
Our new coats and hoods marked preorder will be arriving in September 2025, and we'll be shipping out at that time.
Why should I preorder now
Preordering now:
- Locks in the lowest price
- Guarantees you get a coat before we sell out
- Priority shipping queue: We ship out all coats in the order they were received, so preorders get priority once our inventory arrives
Preorders also help us gauge interest in our new coats!
Is there a preorder discount
Yes! The preorder price is $449. The discount will shrink as we approach the ship-out date, and the coats will be full priced ($499) a month before we ship out.
When can I see real pictures of the coat?
We're working on samples now, and should have a full demo coat ready this spring! We'll send out email updates throughout the preorder.
Can I cancel or change my preorder later?
Of course! You're welcome to cancel or adjust your order at any time, but we will only be able to honor the preorder price during the preorder.
The sleek and mysterious Black Bear is back and better than ever. We've upgraded the look and the features to include all of our upgrades up to and including v5.
This is a limited run, once they're gone they're gone. Get ’em while they’re hot (and you know they’re hot).
Parka length, weatherproof and designed to survive the elements — this Black Bear looks furociously cool, and performs better than your average winter coat.
Designed with Wildcoat v5 features. Product images show previous coat versions during preorder.
Note: This is the warmest coat you'll ever own.
*Ships September 2025 (subject to change)*
Features
All of our coats include the hood and mittens.
Our v5 features:
*NEW* Hood/Helmet Magnetic Connection: We've embedded two magnets in the hood, and include two matching magnets with your order for you to attach to your helmet. This will keep the hood up and in place while you rip on the mountain.
*NEW* Inner Pull-String Waist Cinch Cord: Snug up the waist of the coat with two discrete pinch-locking cord stops inside all v5 coats.
*NEW* Mitten Thumb Loop & Mitten Cinch Cord: We've added a thumb loop with cinch cord to the mittens so you can easily keep the mittens on over gloves or your BEAR hands, and they'll fit more comfortably while gripping ski poles.
v5 Improvements: Based on your feedback, we've reduced the sleeve length slightly on all sizes.
Additional Features:
Fully-adjustable Hood: Fits over helmet, hat, or your bear head.
Detachable Sleeves, Mittens, and Hood: Modular features to adjust your coat for warmer spring days.
Vented Sleeves: The sleeves can also be vented for maximum cool.
Magnetic Mittens & Storm Flap: Quickly flip-back your claws with an easy, secure magnetic attachment, and block the elements with the weatherproof magnetic front-flap.
Two-way Zip: The main zipper is bi-directional to leave extra wiggle room for your knees.
Weatherproof: Designed for the mountain, performs exceptionally well in snow and cold weather. The faux fur repels snow, blocks ALL wind, and has a temperature rating to rival a real bear. Tested on the coldest days in the Colorado Rockies (and throughout brutal Minnesota winters) and we've yet to be chilly.
Mega Pockets: 7 oversized pockets, including a secure-zipped inner media pocket fitting all modern phone sizes, 2 inner drop pockets with ultra-sturdy velcro closures, 2 outer drop pockets with secure velcro closures, and 2 outer leisure hand pockets.
Our coats are unisex in sizing and tend to run a tad big.

Our coats are built to last and have no issues with repeated exposure to snow, ice, and all that comes with 100+ ski days.
If wet, simply hang to dry as you would any other winter gear. Zipping off the hood, sleeves, and mittens helps the coat dry even faster!
Hand-wash + hang-dry only. Washing machines are too rough on the accessories and the dryer will damage the faux leather and could melt the fur. The inner liner can be thoroughly cleaned with gentle soap and water, and can be used to spot clean the fur.
The easiest way to clean your coat is by zipping off the hood sleeves, and mittens, so you can easily spot-clean any/all areas.
Pre-order items ship as soon as our inventory arrives. See pre-order updates here.

TEDDY THINKS YOU'LL LIKE THESE TOO
I want to thank Wildcoat for sending me their amazing American Black Bear Jacket. The product exceeded my expectations: the quality of the material is exceptional, and the warmth it offers is perfect for winter. The design is as stylish as it is functional, and the attention to detail is evident in every aspect.
I especially appreciate the effort they put into shipping it from Colorado to Spain, making sure it arrived in perfect condition. I really appreciate the level of commitment and customer service they demonstrate. A very satisfying purchase and totally recommended!
I ordered in August and I live in AZ so I haven't had a chance to really try it out yet, but this jacket looks so cool!
Best purchase I ever made Fursure!!!
Everything you hope it will be. Amazingly warm and a hit where ever you wear it.
This coat is so awesome, I’m super bummed black bear didn’t make it to the new versions. Skied two days with it, one storm day and one sunny pow day, it did great both days. I wore a long sleeve moisture wicking shirt underneath and was plenty warm. The mittens are a great feature for stopping windchill, wore my spring gloves so I had dexterity then just put on the claws to send it, also nice on the lift. The liner does make a fair amount of noise in the hood and all the snaps were too fiddly and got quickly frustrating. The zippered inner pocket wasn’t big enough for my phone so I put in the outer pocket. I like the features on the new versions and am probably gonna get another one next season because I love this one so much, it’s brings smiles to people’s faces and funny comments from little kids!
