Barbours and other waxed cotton jackets are perfect for Spring--lightweight enough to be comfortable, waterproof enough to keep you dry in Spring showers, and, of course,m very, very cool!

Antartex are a well-established British clothing company best known for their excellent quality sheepskin products and other traditional cold-weather gear--hence their name, "Antartex"! But they also produce waxed cotton jackets that rival those of Barbour in quality--and, unlike many of Barbour's current offerings, those of Antartex are all made in the UK.

This terrific waxed cotton jacket is no exception! Clearly modeled after the iconic Barbour Border, this jacket has two deep front bellows pockets, and two slash handwarmer pockets on the sides. It closes with both a heavy-duty zipper (with a ringpull, like Barbour), and press-studs. It has a corduroy collar, and the sleeves feature storm cuffs. It has a classic tartan lining--this also appears in the side handwarmer pockets. It has a deep interior game pocket as well as an interior chest pocket. It has raglan sleeves.

This coat could use a coat of wax, but it could easily be worn as it is. It's in Very Good condition.

Asking just $65, or offer, boxed and shipped in the USA.

Tagged an XXL, this fits much smaller-more like a 42 or 44.


Chest: 23 1/4
Sleeve: c.33
Length (BOC): 35.
