Is wearing a Pea Coat based or cringe? I have one that I bought years ago that I wear on occasion and usually combine it with black jeans, a plain black t-shirt tucked in, and black boots.

I've been told by my family that I look fancy, rich, or like a member of the Nazi SS. I can't tell if it looks too try hard or bordering on looking like a deranged school shooter.

What is normal and strange is relative. Calling a peacoat Nazi-like is strange as there is barely a tangential relation between the two.

>Just curious if it's something a 24 year old uni-grad student should be wearing without looking like a tryhard
Clothes norms differ. Nobody knows the norms of your area better than oh and the people there. If your outfit looks like shit or you’re an autist, yes, you’ll look like a tryhard, especially if the clothes don’t look “natural” on you.
