I've always thought that was a great picture, the only jacket in there I don't like is the one with the massive collar?
Mrs Bop struggles to accept my courdory sports jacket...when I showed her a pendleton jacket like the one above.. there was a movement towards annulment.
Come on now Bop, you have only been married a short time, you need to lay some ground rules.
There are many items in my wardrobe that get up Mrs AC's nose but i wear them despite the comments and dirty looks.
She does love most of my makers though which is fortunate.
That sheepskin at the top is very Robert Redford
My wife bought me both a modern YMC shawl collar pea coat and a vintage Might Mac shawl collar coat (same as this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintag-MIGHTY-MAC-MELTON-WOOL-COAT-TYCOON-COLLAR-SIZE-36-VTG-AMAZING-COND-/201450705881?hash=item2ee765d3d9:g:YtoAAOSwa39Usz5x), both are superb - I actually like the Buffercoat but never find one in my size.

Owing solely to the picture on Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf, the shawl coat always makes me think of Jimmy Smith.
I can’t stand shawls….
Actually…whilst I think of it….
I DO HAVE
1 x Invertere cord buffer
1 x Late 1920s Chippewa shawl ¾
1 x 40s Leather beastie Barnstormer shawl

Cool coat. You receive that stadium coat yet?
That's great, Harpo!
I'd love a corduroy shawl; long or short... I'd love corduroy anything!
That stadium coat looks great, Harpole.
Tommy, let's see it in the flesh, man. At least post a shot of it in this thread.
