Hey all,

Been looking into some of the coats from Private White VC, namely the Admiral's Great Coat, and the Donegal Overcoat they have in collaboration with Permanent Style. I can't find too much in-depth info about their stuff and it's a bit expensive to just get on a whim, so I would appreciate any firsthand experience.

Thanks in advance!

I have a couple of their waxed canvas pieces and some of their knitwear – everything they make is definitely a bit on the pricier side, but their stuff is extremely well made (certainly a cut well above Belstaff or Barbour). They usually do a couple of great end-of-season sales if you're not in a rush.

I've had a couple of their coats and the quality and materials are second to none I'd say. I had their jeep coat which really felt a bit too dressy for me in the end and I sold it, seemed a bit too high end for walking the dog in! I had a moleskin bomber and I still have an older wax twin track, everything has held up well too.

I will say their sizing is frustrating and the way its changed over time from size 12345 to whatever it goes up to now.

I have a flight jacket, which was my gateway drug into leather jackets. The zipper stop unfortunately fell off after about 50-100 wears (Riri 2 way).

But, PWVC is currently covering the shipping and repair, so maybe a win on the customer service side.

I have a couple, I forget their names though. One is a heavy belted wool coat and one is a corduroy bomber. Both are fantastic in materials, fit, and construction.

Highly recommended, but as mentioned above wait for a sale. They’ll go as high as 40 percent off.
