The Doctor's fur coat was a fur coat used and worn by some incarnations of the Doctor in cold weather.
History
The coat was made of polyester rather than animal skin and was bought by the Doctor on the planet Thraxis. (AUDIO: No Place Like Home)
The Doctor wore it during his second incarnation when visiting the Himalayas. He wore the coat to protect himself from the cold, but the coat led him to being mistaken for the Robot Yeti who had been killing villagers. The Doctor was able to prove his innocence and stop the Yeti, thus foiling the Great Intelligence. (TV: The Abominable Snowmen)
The Doctor wore the coat again when first encountering the Ice Warriors. (TV: The Ice Warriors)
