Good for you Chet. A real cool jacket.
A Keydge. Too bad about the colour...

Even you you halve the measurements it seems a bit odd, 19" shoulder on a 40" chest? Might be a 38L if they have measured sleeve from middle of the back and the length from top of collar?
All I know is that I have many 38 jackets, and I'd be swimming around in that thing!
Pricey, but nicey!

also a black pair plus some Bass moc toes amongst other nice items.
True, but obviously buying new has numerous advantages. However it's all about supply and demand, and I believe the former is far greater than the latter when it comes to vintage overcoats.
Right on both accounts. Which is why I'm not pulling the trigger, as it's my size.
No need for corduroy. Copy David Coleman with this:-

'The most stupid, appalling, disgusting and disgraceful exhibition of football, possibly in the history of the game.'
That is Johnny Foreigner for you.(unspoken). He did not need a coat that day.
