I saw one of these going for $2500 in vintage men's clothing on Ebay. I'm too lazy to go back and find the link :D

Hmph I found the loden coat thread very interesting, though most of them seemed more dressy than rugged. Beautiful coats though. It seems the style I want is fairly common overseas: http://www.brontecountrywear.com/countrywear/fieldcoat3_large.htm But I was hoping to do it on the cheap...

LOL yup sorry I missed the sale price. They don't have it in my size though. Chasseur I really like that German coat, that's exactly what I'm looking for.

That Orvis coat is perfect but waay out of my price range. My hope was that someone knew of a "dark horse" deal of some kind. I don't own any current Woolrich coats, which was why I wanted to get someone's feedback on it.

...3/4 or hip length, a "car coat" so to speak. It MUST be a dark green. I'm looking at the Filson double mackinaw, though $335 is spendy for me, and also this one: http://www.woolrich.com/woolrich/browse/productDetail.jsp?icParent=subCategory&icCategory=cat10019&icProduct=22703&icSort=# I'm...

The first thing that springs to mind is a costume party. Every year on New Years Eve some friends of mine have a "Dress to the Nines" party, and non-contemporary clothing is encouraged. I just wear my best suit with the trimmings (cufflinks, etc.), but man I would like to be able to show up in...

Amazing fit, I really like how the back (and front!) turned out.

Another Stephen King one: Stand by Me was a fantastic movie, The Body was a decent novella but not great.

Akubra Fedora in Burnt Oak Not sure if anyone has posted this color before, as close as I could come: Outdoors: [/IMG] And on my pointy head. [/IMG] The hat is very very soft, not a very high brim, a bit too much taper IMO but I really love the color, very much a "burnt" dark brown.

Exactly! It's funny how you can experience a perceptual shift. I put on a baseball cap and I feel like a kid again, and not in a good way. Well done on converting your friend!

Leatherheads Clooney's movie is set in 1926 and the fashions are fantastic, though the movie ain't so much. Anyone else see it? Sorry if someone mentioned this film once before.

Congrats Jimmy on a fine lid!!

I bid $200

Hmm Thunder I just bought this one on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=350109099176 but I must say I like yours much better. What size is it?
