Who made that one? Looks like something RRL or one of the Japanese repro brands would do.

It's by a company called Messagerie.. The cuff buttons are functional and go all the way up to the elbow patch.

Fantastic shade of brown, Fastuni. Not one you see these days. Patch pockets, too. Excellent! A great looking coat.

Late 50s atomic/rock-n-roll style. Even has patch pockets. Sort of a holy grail find for me, they don't come along in size 48long very often. I love the upholstery looking fabric.

Brilliant jacket. I love that cut, and the pattern could be dressed up or dressed down. Very nice indeed!

One I picked up nice and cheap from Ebay. Really interesting. Not dead old my any means, probably 1980s at the oldest. Peaked lapel, 4 button, 4 pocket (although the breast pockets are false) with a full belt. Cotton, half lined, by 'Parkes'. Never heard of them myself.
I really like it. It has little-to-no inner construction, the shoulders are very soft, and it fits fairly well.
Maybe the Ebay listing does it better justice.

The only issue is that the leather/cardboard buckle on the belt has disintegrated. Anyone know where I can get a similar replacement. Or if anyone has one lying about I can buy off of them?

Thanks Eddie.
Your new one there is a nice one. Reminds me a lot of the old 40s/50s Hollywood style.
Good color, too
