What jacket(s) are you wearing at the moment?

[mulceber]

Sorry for responding that delayed - somehow the year's change came across
Of course! Amending the existing thread would put it all into one basket and turn out to the one-stop-shop for those who have not yet set sail on one or the other option.

Yeah, I was thinking I could just add a post with my review and thoughts onto the end. It could be an interesting addition because where you were comparing the two companies' mixed batch offerings, I'll be comparing their offerings of the same contract, so I won't just be rehashing the material you already covered.

An A 1 ? Were you in Scotland?

The party was hosted by someone from Scotland.

Looks great -- I need to wear mine more often. I have a great, off-white turtleneck that looks perfect under it.

What's the manufacturer of this one?

If I remember correctly that was my 10 button WWII issued USN Pea Coat. The label is on the inside lining.
Sorry don’t remember the maker .

It looks unworn -- especially the collar.

 

[B-Man2]

Yep … it was in pretty good condition for an Original WWII size 46.

 

[Thomas Koehle]

@Chandler / @B-Man2 will check the label tomorrow and let you know

The condition of the coat is outstanding as usual if you get into a trade with Burt

Excellent peacoat. Majorly into these at the moment too.

my only issue (not that their has to be an issue) with the peacoat or any wool coat is they tend to be lint and hair collectors. Luckily, I have hair on my head but I do tend to shed quite a bit so these jackets become impractical for me. I have a Buzz Rickson pre-war Submariner wool coat that is dark grey but sort of heather grey so some of the hair/lint attraction is less noticeable.

I guess with a dog in the house it would turn into a fur coat right quick then?

You were right! Cold and clear today!

Depends on the color of the dog.

You know how far ahead of the "MotA" trend curve you are, right?
