    Greatcoats?

    I see greatcoats on surplus stores occasionally. Are they more formal or casual? I usually wear cords, an OCBD, and a sweater but would like a nice long coat. Barn coats aren’t doing it for me these days.

    Bob Dong deck jacket.

    Just got a bob dong jacket. Seems real nice and perhaps the warmest jacket I’ve ever worn. One problem though. I usually wear a 40 in American clothing. I sided up to a 42 and the shoulders were still too narrow. Is this common?

    Which One Fits Better?

    So I take it these jackets should fit looser.

    Which One Fits Better?

    That’s my problem being short and having a wrestler build. Things are tight but too long.

    Which One Fits Better?

    I thought it was a good time to replace my old barn jacket. Which one do you think fits better? Lay or second.

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    Thinking about getting a vintage Navy pea coat. I am 5’6’’, 165-170 lbs, with a 40 inch chest. I am on the leaner side of things. A 40 measured around 42 in the chest on most jackets. Is that typical? Would a 40R be too long? I wear 40s in sport coats.

    Alpaca Lining for Waterfront Jacket

    Noted, what I really want is probably a leather jacket. I don’t really have the budget to buy one though responsibly. I may buy a b-10 or b-15 though since I only one jacket. That is a wool lined canvas barn coat. A little long and cumbersome for driving everyday.

    Alpaca Lining for Waterfront Jacket

    Yeah that would make more sense. I use to have a Pendleton mackinaw cruiser and it wasn’t very warm due to lack of wind resistance. Poor wind resistance is why I traditionally preferred duck jackets . So you don’t think the jacket is very warm?

    Alpaca Lining for Waterfront Jacket

    Sounds like I’ll stick with the twill. I’m used to wool but as a barber I’ve learned to hate hairy itch stuff.

    Alpaca Lining for Waterfront Jacket

    I’m thinking about getting a Waterfront wool jacket from Aero leathers. The shell is an 18oz mackinaw-like wool. There are two lining options (alpaca and cotton twill). I live in Southern Indiana not far from Louisville. I’m afraid the alpaca liner would be too warm for fall when it’ll get down...

    Denim Jacket with Ample Armholes

    Does anyone know of a denim jacket with functionally sized armholes? I tried a type 3 Levi’s trucker the other day. My arms could barely squeeze into the armholes. I have a 40 inch chest and lift weights. I tried a size medium. I was eyeballing and old Lee’s rider jacket but I’m afraid the...

    Khakis Fit?

    Yes. I think the higher waist is more flattering for us less vertically inclined.
