James was of a well-off family, and we'll learn more about that-- so 
said JKR between GOF and OOTP (someone can point to that?)  On the 
cloaks-- they come from demiguise hairs (see Fantastic Beasts book), 
and those creatures are so rare and hard to catch, that it explains 
why just having a lot of money can't necessarily buy one.  James got 
his from his father, JKR said in the past.

What I'm wondering is what happened to Moody's spare cloak that got 
lost in OOTP, and Barty Crouch Jr.'s?  Who is lurking around 
invisible that we don't know about?  A DE?  Does not bode well...
