Avedon and Colby...

are having a 20% off sale again. While they are known for their quality shirts, of which I have a few, they also have other stuff.
Below is myself in their estate jacket at NYC a few months ago. Kept me warm and cozy.

My gripe with coats like this - Barbour are the same - is that they don't cover (what Forrest Gump called) the boo-tocks.

We used to call coats like this 'bum freezers' at school.

In the rain, the coat drips from the hem straight onto your bum or legs. QED, the ideal coat should come down to mid or half thigh, and be cinched by a belt at the waist.

Anyway, you look good in it!

I prefer something a little longer myself..

It looks like Avedon and Colby offer something you might like though.. similar design and cut to the coat @Tanks is wearing, but longer.. more like the old Artkis Smock that the Brit army used to issue (they may still issue it?)..

Really reasonably priced too... knowing tanks demands quality, I am sure they make an excellent jacket.. and if the smock length coat can be had for $249, thats a pretty serious bargain...

@roverandbrew turned me onto the Artkis version last year.. theyre roughly the same price (I think $200?).. Ive been super happy with it.. rugged and durable as hell... reasonably thin and comfortable to move around in... and way more than enough to fend off the absolute coldest winter day that north texas can provide.. It became my go-to jacket for deer season last year.. and ultimately became my go-to jacket for pretty much any cold day after that...

I actually have that particular jacket as well. It is my go to jacket for African and international travel when weather is milder.
