Hi everyone,
I walked past Arthur Beale sailing shop in Seven Dials, Covent Garden on the way to Pubjab restaurant on Thursday and was quite taken with the look of this sailing slack jacket in the window:

Worn generally perhaps or on board with this underneath:

Have got one of those - but it seldom sees any wear as I have a complex about the collar size ... Should anyone be interested - proceed with caution - the sizing is bonkers. I'm somewhere between a 44 and a 46 chest - but got away with a Medium.

Dive dive dive! It looks like the Vetra jackets, is very soft and unstructured. Like a cardigan as much as a jacket.
^ there's a Saint James boutique shop near my place in Spain and I've seen the jumpers (really nice ) but never bought as I'm usually there in summer when it's the last thing on my mind.
Great shout Unseen...I love popping into Arthur Beale.... wonderful shop.. they sort me out on no end of "brass" issues ...and no giggling at the back... pur-lease?!?!?
I wear a Fishing smock on the quiet you know... but not from there...must pop back....and take a butcher's...
If Chucky can get into a medium I must be an XS mwoh ha ha...only joking Chucky...
That submariner sweaterload looks mighty long mind...
