The benefits of wearing a coat outdoors are wide-ranging, mainly windproof, waterproof, warm, durable, and comfortable. Outdoor coats are designed to be resistant to changes in climate and environment, and to allow you to move around safely and comfortably.

Key benefits: Windproof, waterproof, and breathable: Outdoor coats are made from high-performance materials (e.g. Gore-Tex and Omni-Tech) that can withstand changing weather conditions (rain, wind, snow, etc.), keeping you comfortable while you're out and about.
- Thermal insulation: Many models use down or unique thermal materials (e.g., Omni-Heat), allowing you to maintain body temperature even in cold regions or during winter.
- Durability: Designed for outdoor use, it is resistant to wear and tear and can be used for a long time.
- Lightweight and compact storage: Modern outdoor coats are lightweight and many can be stored compactly in a backpack.
- Insect and stain resistant: Some models are insect resistant, water repellent and stain resistant, providing efficient support for outdoor activities.
- Multifunctional pockets and storage capacity: Many outdoor coats have plenty of pockets that allow you to store your belongings separately, making them highly practical.
-Can be used for everyday wear: There are many simple, stylish models that are easy to wear around town, which is why they are so popular.

However, they are often not suitable for mountain climbing, so you should avoid wearing them in these cases: on trails with large elevation changes that will cause a lot of sweating, on rocky ridges, or on routes where there is a possibility of bushwhacking.
- Situations where strong winds and rain require frequent opening and closing, ventilation, and layer adjustment while moving around.
- Climbing sections during the harsh winter (down jackets and other thermal coats are often intended for resting or stagnation and are not suitable for active wear).

Summary: Outdoor coats offer a wide range of benefits, including improved safety in bad weather, practical features such as warmth and durability, and lightweight and easy storage. Having one can greatly improve your sense of security and comfort, especially in Japan's mountainous regions and other areas prone to sudden changes in weather.
