Bought this just in time for winter. It is getting cold in the city.

Beautiful coat.

BTW, whoever this Mr. 13659 was, he had great taste.

That is one amazingly cool coat.

Curious how it looks when you've put it on.

What a positive group of replies for the jacket.

I am probably going to wear it this weekend and will post a picture.

I'll be wearing mine too! It's going to be darned cold in the Midwest for the next couple days. I can see snow as I look out the window now.....

I noticed your overcoat has hidden buttons too.
How do you like this feature? I think it adds a neat appearance to the outfit.

I like it. It has 3 large hidden buttons and a smaller button at the throat to button the collar closed for really nasty weather. It's a very streamlined look with it buttoned. I was surprised to find the early union label in this one, I figured at first glance this was out of the 50's or 60's judging from the hidden buttons and the like new condition. Learn something new all the time.
I've got a 1950 dated example and a couple others yet to photograph.

Here is an old favourite in need of some TLC. I've had it since 1993 and the worst wear seems to be pilling and and a few stiches loose around the velvet in the collar.

Nice, Feraud. The coloring, texture and buttons of your overcoat look very similar to my Dior Casablanca trench. It's a distinctive color, a bit more 'manilla' than the typical tan overcoats you find(don't have any color photos at the moment, unfortunately).

And of course, Paddy's sharp as ever. I really need to get a single-breasted tweed coat.

This is the gray overcoat shown above.
I hope Shearer does not mind me stealing her pic to include in this thread.

Not one flaw!!

Except his collar being popped. Why, oh why is Feraud a slave to trends now?

Seriously, that's nice. Who's the gent in the middle in the other picture? I can't tell right off the bat.

Just a slave to the weather.. it was cold that evening!

Edit - That is Douglas in the other pic.

That's a current trend?

I invested in a decidedly non-vintage, but beautiful nonetheless, All Saints mac -

Keeps me warm, dry and stylish, although it does get grubby quite easily...
