Jackets

demonrail666 · 08.24.2009, 06:45 AM

I need a new winter jacket.

I'm useless at shopping for clothes though. I don't want anything too arctic friendly, just something I can typically wear over a polo shirt and jeans. We're talking smart-casual here.

Please help me.

not sure how I can help you try on or find a jacket. do you want links?

you're a guy right? what's yr style? what shape and height are you?

demonrail666 · 08.24.2009, 07:21 AM

yeah, links. loads of em.

I'm a guy, 6ft, bit of a beer gut

Are pretty great, but I think you won't find my winter jack anymore.

if yr tall I'd probably go for something that finishes where yr butt stops, shorter stuff would probably make you look lanky and I think the longer cut looks nice on taller guys. my *personal* preference is for a nice tailored leather vintage look jacket something like this below(I prefer black to brown, or even any colour that is really dark like a nice burgundy. if you have a nice butt I'd choose the leather one.. I swear I have stopped what I'm doing and followed men around the city in winter when they've been wearing a nice tailored leather jacket with a split and a nice ass.)

or, a nice semi tailored wool duffle one like below.. again I like winter coats in dark colours only (except for reds or greys on women), and I think black is best in wool on guys. Wool ones are more casual but just as cool, I think. especially if its a duffle. they're charming and it looks like you've "accessorised" without trying.

dont mind me though, I have have somewhat peculiar tastes in clothing.

Man, you are talking about my favorite subject next to sex and LPs: Jackets!

I would suggest a nice fatigue jacket. See J. Crew's version. Or get a pea coat. See also J. Crew but you might also find an acceptable version in an army-navy clothing store.

Military-influenced outerwear is very in right now.

demonrail666 · 08.24.2009, 09:14 AM

yeah, i'd not thought about a pea coat. that might be just the thing actually

Here is something simple from Casual Male and it doesn't cost a arm and a leg. Most definitely order from a big & tall place if you are over six foot!

Yeah, that would definitely work.

demonrail666 · 08.24.2009, 09:24 AM

Now this I really like!

phoenix · 08.24.2009, 09:26 AM

I had one of those when I was 4. ^

girlgun · 08.24.2009, 09:36 AM

i'm voting pea coat. always looks good.

floatingslowly · 08.24.2009, 09:45 AM

I want a pea coat. it's too bad the family-clothing-budget for the next 10 years was spent on BOOTS!

ithinkimissyou · 08.24.2009, 10:01 AM

I like M65 style jackets generally

I'd love a military wool overcoat/greatcoat but I can't find any locally and am wary of buying them online

sorry man, i don't give a shit about your wardrobe (i am not your mother), but i wanted to say that i wholly approve and am completely envious of your current location-- the fact that your jacuzzi companion is a 50 year old fox makes it even more appealing than if this had been the 80s.

Since you have admitted to wearing polo shirts, I don't think we can find any common ground and I am useless to advise you in this matter.
