    Need Suggestions for Fleece Jacket

    Finally, somebody besides me knows about Ibex. Ibex merino wool jerseys are the only thing I'll wear while mountain biking. And I also own a boiled wool jacket like you do. Very stylish, rugged, and versatile. I'll have to see if it fits under my Highwayman when I get it. If not, I'll use my...

    Barbour International

    Well, since this is another waxed cotton thread, I might as well chime in. I recently bought a Lewis Creek Stockton Barn Jacket http://www.lewiscreek.com/ from eBay for $90. Not to gloat or anything, but the jacket is absolutely beautiful with perfect construction. Leather and soft moleskin...

    Schott or Stirlingwear of Boston Pea Coat?

    Neither! Do what I did and buy an original issue pea coat from eBay or elsewhere. There's litterally tons of them around for sale. I consulted Peacoat's sticky and Peacoat himself for lots of great info. In the end, I bought an original coat from 1966 for $50. It appeared unworn with only a...

    Who Makes a Nice Pea Coat?

    Oh yes I did. And to think I was going to buy a modern version. I'm so glad that Peacoat talked me out of it. Just got it today and frankly, I'm blown away by the quality. I paid $50 for it and it's awesome. Fit is perfect. Lining is perfect. There's quite a few moth nibbles around the...

    Who Makes a Nice Pea Coat?

    Hey Celtic, I'm thinking of buying a Schott mainly due to your post. Seems to be the heaviest wool available, and with the quilted lining, I'm sure it's very warm. I'm wondering about the fit, thougn. Are they at all "form fitting" or do they just hang straight down with no taper at the...

    Scotch Plaid / Tartan ..?

    Help me out here folks. A while back, somebody posted a site of the mfr who makes Traditional Wool Scotch Plaid fabrics. I know that Aero some times keeps stock of these on hand, or can get some on special request. Could somebody please post that site again. Thanks, Lenny
