The Kringle Collection is a community-created miscellaneous item for the Soldier. It is a team-colored Template:W with fur around the sleeves and collar and a square-buckled belt, similar to the one worn by Template:W.

The Kringle Collection was originally known as the "Winter Coat" when it was contributed to the Steam Workshop, but the name was changed by Valve before being added to the game.
