yes/no?

[Servo2000]

I'd try and find a photo of it somewhere else before deciding. Oak's photos are basically a scam.

[U MAD]

arms look wide as heck

[Battles]

fuck, servo was right.

[superBobo]

WTF at those pics. mr highstreet and superbobo both doing fit modeling now?

Which one is me?

I plan to get into modeling when I get older, www.dressman.se style ...

[superBobo]

Not exactly on the fashion frontier, but I'm thinking of picking up something from Filson this winter:

or

I love both, but the second one must be a better winter jacket. As Robin said, first one seems to be more of a shell.

I must get a Filson Mackinaw soon!

[onemancult]

there are apparently no good winter coats anywhere this season.

nothing is nice. im so disappointed.

[ProfMonnitoff]

the juun j that wild_whiskey has is great but maybe a bit over the top

if you're willing to drop 2 large, prorsum trenches have really thick lining this season

but yeah other than that i dunno. ive been buying mainly old stuff recently.

[wrong_move]

Anyone own a Krane jacket? I'm thinking of getting this, dunno if it's warm enough for -20C or worth $1000++. Also looking for similar (and cheaper) 3/4 length coats.

I thought this was nice... never got to try it on, but it looks good.

[onemancult]

i need something in charcoal grey. i dont wear black. or rather, i try my hardest to avoid wearing black.

no hood.

zipper or buttons, whatever. thinking i prefer zippers.

inside pockets plz.

im kind of wanting something with a belt.

Delphic has those last I checked. Go try it out.

[onemancult]

and some kind of unique detail.

basically, i need something smack dab between formal and casual. it has to work dressed up and dressed down.

i will never find this dream coat.

[Jkissi7]

Im looking for black wool long coat / overcoat. There is a lot out there trying to slim it down.

Price range - $400

not to keep pushing the Gargyle tip, but this one was also nice-ish

http://www.gargyle.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=893&cPath=3_7_38

again I have no personal experience with it

same with this one:

http://www.gargyle.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=819&cPath=3_7_38

I honestly really only have a charcoal MJ cropped Peacoat that I have yet to even put on since it hasn't gotten sufficiently cold, so I'm going boring/classic

maybe contract a group of beleaguered and coked up FIT students to create you the jacket you want/need? Kill them when you're done.

[aizan]

not a winter coat, but still damn cool:

[Yakboy Equals Nurturer]

Not exactly on the fashion frontier, but I'm thinking of picking up something from Filson this winter:

Filson's tin cloth jackets are amazing for the rain, and keep out cold wind very nicely, but you'll need to layer up if you're going to rely on it in proper winter. Go for a proper wool mackinaw if you need to keep warm. You'll not regret it.

[hollowsleather]

The thing is, I had a double mackinaw coat that was actually TOO warm. I rarely found it cold enough not to die of sweat while biking in it.

Wind is a big issue cycling, so I think that Tin + layers will do the trick.

That looks like the coat Omar is wearing in Season 4 of The Wire.

[Handlethevibe]

It's called a Duster.

[cosmicflop]

Omar's wearing a Drizabone, surely.

[JonathanFrom508]

Just wondering does anyone know of a nice utility shirt style jacket

the kind that both zips and buttons up??

black preferably

I know its not a coat but this topic was up and I need a new jacket for winter

edit: actually just a button up jacket is fine also, any suggestions, somewhat along the lines of this julius leather

[Mihalis]

looking for something similar to this (or even better, this one)... in the sub $1000 range

recommendations?

[knucks]

Any cheap toggle coats out there? I'm talking sub $100.

(old navy has some, lol)

I have been saying this all season.

Not for the same reasons I don't think but still.

Only thing I even thought was interesting was that one crazy Viridi-Anne leather down zipper thing just for its sheer audacity.

Pretty satisfied with my vintage Helmut / Rick overall, though, but it'd be nice to lust after something new once in a while.

zara used to do somehting like that, maybe they still do

[KicksNotBombs]

OF had one, it was actually pretty well done. Fit and quality was pretty nice.

[MatBoy]

Margiela has a great parka for this winter. Khaki or Navy Blue. It's great, although must be a bit more than $ 1000.

[Kesnel]

I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions on a certain kind of coat that I'd like. I'm looking for a long, wool coat, preferably in dark grey or black. Sometime similar to this Raf coat below, but thicker. Basically, it needs to be a nice, clean design; no gratuitous zips, pockets, etc. Price range is approximately £200 - 250.
