Winter coats and jackets

Recommended Posts

I ended up with four winter coats, a Sprayway waterproof, a Tog 24 arctic parka (it's a beast), a nice H&M wool one, and despite them costing about 200-odd between them, I think  the last one I got is the nicest. A Peter Storm one for only 40 notes from Millets. Comfy as hell.

 

Somebody asked me why I kept putting my big coat on to go outside for a snout the other day, it's because I love my coats, I would wear them to bed if it wasn't really weird.

Sorry if it's already been linked (not hugely interested in jackets so not going through the thread.), but I saw this the other day and will probably be getting one in the near future : http://www.amazon.co.uk/Trespass-Mens-Corvo-Jacket/dp/B00DZRCABW

 

Not into buying clothes often or paying loads for them, but getting a decent jacket soon is probably needed.

Some of the posts on here make me laugh.

 

I live in actual, literal Siberia, and I almost never even wear my down parka.  I mean, I own one, but it stays in the closet until it gets down to -40, which is maybe 2-3 weeks out of the year (actually, we're nearing it now).

 

The rest of the time I wear a flannel-lined jacket with a light down vest underneath.  Maybe a wool sweater underneath all that if it's windy.  I can't even imagine what one would do with a down jacket in the UK.  Madness, I tell you.

Fucking phone, can someone post the Sopranos Russian 'wash my balls in ice water' clip?

Negged for spending £279 fucking pounds on a fucking coat.

I got 40% off so it was £160.

 

Plus it's an army coat so the idea is that it'll last me for life, I won't bother telling you about my life size Elvis statue made out of diamonds.

Hey mate, I wrote that when I was really pissed. Just reread it this second and it comes across as really twattish so please accept my apology and some rep.

 

Also being an Alpha coat I know it'll be fucking ace anyway.

Got myself a leather jacket from all saints earlier, 200 in the sale. Wanted one for years but never found the right one. Needless to say it's fucking ace

The purchase of any leather jacket is to be applauded, some blert in work said I looked like I was from the 70s in mine, a Levi black lamb leather California bomber that's fucking mint, I refuse to take fashion advice from a generation of British men who look like they were shit out by Andy Sugden.

Being told you look like you're from the 70s is a compliment.

Taken me years to find the right one. It hit me like the holy goast. The 70's are cool. Lizziebirdsworth still lives in them. (Ben off here that is not the cell block h cunt)

Stick a link up, Stig.  All Saints leather jackets are a slight guilty pleasure of mine, but I don't really get on with them so have never bothered for the cost as I barely wear the one I have.  Is it Kelly Jones style, by any chance?  Most of their decent ones are.
