This heavy duty Egyptian cotton is more like a lighter canvas and is just lovely. It says: "Give me a Buggatti to drive!" Or "A Sopwith Camel to ride the skies!"
I'm 5' 8 1/2 and this coat protects me right down to the ankles!! Lovely brushed cotton blanket liner to keep you cosey! Fold over flaps on the pockets to keep them dry. Shoulder cape to cover the seams most vulnerable to the rain and elements.

Made by Backhouse of New Zealand for Barbour (I believe Barbour owns the company that is famous for it's stockmans jackets).

Size 40 to 46" (the way the weight drapes the cotton there's the room and it looks easily as good on a 40" which is 'me' up to a 46" who will fill it out more).

Riding attachments for the legs on the inside. Cord collar. I'll let the photos do the talking. Lovely, lovely coat with a real vintage feel to it, but just not getting the wear time, like a few things in my closet! [huh]

Price £100 (GBP) plus postage. PM if you want it.

It's raining somewhere in the world right now...:)

This is a beautiful jacket with a vintage look and finish to it, made in New Zealand for the prestigious English company, Barbour's. It's a great buy and will guarantee to get great comments!! (I can testify to that).

Too bad there is not a Ladies version of this- sigh. I'm afraid at 5' 3-1/2" tall its still too long for a wee lass like me, though with a 42" bust it would fit me just fine otherwise. Sigh... A truly fabulous coat, Paddy. Hopefully some gent here may snap it up. Still, I wonder if my many years alterationist Ioana could shorten it for me, she does wonders with custom fitting my clothes for me. Hm, hm...
