How to turn a female long coat into a male one?

Q. I've been looking for a Long Coat, Male, Black, non-Leather, non-Wool, length going down to mid-shin. But every time I find a good one, good fabric, good weight, size, it ends up being a Women's Coat, and it's the badass appearance I'm going for.
Something like that, but that's more of a Duster. I'm looking for more of a columbine type look I guess.

A. Easier to make a new one than recut one that's already made.

What style are you looking for? Something like a drover coat? http://www.downunderweb.com/store/Clothing_OilskinandCanvasCoats.html
