Hey hey! Down boy! Down!:whip: :whip: This isn't the classifieds. :p

I know but what the heck, maybe he would toss me a bone or two...hahah! I do have a few really nice top coats, but nothing as outward as that one is. You don't see something that nice floating around much.

Calling Dinerman Come In Dinerman

Hay Dinerman are you still out there? I hope you know we are all just having fun? I personally think that is one darn cool jacket! On a serious note, what the heck is that made of? Is it synthetic, or natural? You do come up with the greatest finds.

It looks like made of newborn lambs fur. There is a term for it but I forgot. When I was younger my grand grandmother used to have a hat and a coat made of this and it scared me.

I would love a coat like that nonetheless.

Today, I just donned my 30's Stetson Special, 50's Hart Schaffner & Marx Blazer, 50's Richman Brothers Harris Tweed Overcoat, and 60's Seiko watch (my great grandfathers :D), and the rest are modern items, so I won't get into that!

Baron, that coat is epic. I would totally wear that. I actually prefer the blue/black contrast over a black on black design. That coat would be awesome with a shiny silk tophat and an ascot under a wing or high stand collar. :D Love it.

Splinter - getting better and better, my friend! That ensemble is understated, yet elegant and showing plenty of panache. Keep it up!

The only minor thing I notice is that your shirt collar may perhaps be slightly too large for you. You seem to have quite a bit of space between your neck and the collar, but I could be wrong as pictures can be deceiving. Only a minor point and it detracts very, very little from the whole package.

I think it's buffalo. Turn of the century, sold in upstate NY.
Of course I've got a sense of humor about it! The dog, well, maybe not so much. ;)

That you! I would have to agree. The shirt is from my mother's boyfriend, and well, he is a bit bigger than I am. But you are right, it is a wee-bit big. The shoulders dont fall where they should, so even that part is off.

On the flip-side, I am soon going to be purchasing some shirts that fit properly, and I am thinking about going the detachable-collar route. Something different!
