Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
I'm still interested in acquiring another peacoat for my collection. Were there any different colors or styles of the peacoat from 1940s? I have the WW2 navy one already... any ideas? I'd love a 1930s coat or older. I love peacoats because they are timeless pieces and still look great even in...- Spartcom5

Marley Hodgson Messenger Bag... Opinions?
Hey guys I picked up this bag today for $100, I didn't know if it was a good deal or not. I had thought I liked the bag while I was in the store but after I got back I'm unsure... There are no returns. I'm in college where 99% of the people wear backpacks and not bags like this. I just wanted to...- Spartcom5

So you think I can still wear it right? It won't ruin it or anything haha? I also plan on losing some weight over the summer which should help with the tightness- Spartcom5

Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
Update with great news! I got the peacoat washed and everything went great! Feel amazing now, I'm kind of disgusted at how different it feels as I don't think the coat had been washed for at least 30-40 years and I had been trying it on! Also, here are some pictures of how it fits on me... I...- Spartcom5

Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
Hmm alright I'll call the tailor and make sure she doesn't wash it in water. Dry cleaning does sound like the safest route honestly, if this coat were to get soaked it would take ages for it to dry out! Idk about temporally sewing it but buttoning does sound like a good idea. The solvent the...- Spartcom5

Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
Hmm okay, it's getting repaired right now. The tailor didn't like the idea of the tumbler because she's worried about the embroidery. It doesn't seem very durable as it is silk, do you think it'd be fine in a tumbler at the dry cleaner? Does your dry cleaner use a tumbler and all is good? If it...- Spartcom5

Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
Wow thanks! Very informative! However I've run into a roadblock here. The tailor I took it to said she can fix it up new (she makes her own wedding dresses so shes more than qualified). She told me to take it to get cleaned, so I took it to a highly rated dry cleaner in my area... They said that...- Spartcom5

Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
Well what I mean is that shouldn't there be a collar piece that connects the neck together? See in this picture, there is no button on my coat (the left button in the picture). The right button is there however. Confusing I know sadly I have no picture ATM. But long story short there is no way I...- Spartcom5

Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
Like this I hope? I do think it may have been relined. What about the collar? The collar has two button on it, shouldn't it have 3? Very confusing haha! The embroidery is what makes this coat different from most!- Spartcom5

Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat
Peacoat I'm hoping you can help me out! I picked up this WW2 peacoat at an estate sale for $75. It was missing one button but thankfully it was in the pocket! The lining of the sleeves inside have torn from the threading, I have a great tailor nearby who should be able to fix it perfectly. There...- Spartcom5
