    Surgeon’s Jacket (Tweed) by Nigel Cabourn

    I recently bought a tweed jacket made by Nigel Cabourn. It’s a limited edition based on an original worn by Edward Atkinson, the surgeon on the ill-fated Scott expedition to the South Pole in 1912. I really like this pattern: typically Edwardian with narrow lapels, slight waist, fixed half...

    And that, is how that B-3 has to be worn IMHO. Ignore the eye watering expense and let it get well broken in and a bit grubby. I could never understand what people saw in these jackets because they always look pristine and too mannered in the images. Now I understand the appeal, this looks...

    Really changeable weather pattern in the West Country this week. Cool, but dry, sunny, and warmer today. Sadly, too warm for the Journeyman today so goatskin Monarch with olive green moleskin newsboy cap (Laird Hatters). Goat is breaking in well.

    Raining stair rods in Bristol this morning and thunderstorms forecast later today. Still the warmest, most comfortable leather coat that I have ever owned: Freewheelers Journeyman in jet black deerskin. With woollen ‘Canvey’ cap by Old Town (also pullover shirt by Darcy Clothing, Fairisle...

    It’s been changeable today in NE Somerset. When getting dressed it looked pretty cool and damp so I picked out the FW Journeyman. By the time I was getting ready to leave the house, it had warmed up a little and the deerskin was going to be too warm. So, back to the Monarch.

    One of my favourite jackets once the weather turns cooler: Fitzrovia jacket in olive green corduroy by Old Town. Sadly no longer available, this is a ‘20s influenced design with neatly profiled lapels with revers, trademark cuff shape , flapped pockets, and figured back. Great fabric that can...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    These are shots from the web, but give a good impression, I think.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    I’ll photo and review it when it arrives, Peter. The best images that I have seen in the two cloths woven for it are grey/blue and red/brown.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Salutary lesson for those of us who use EBAY for ‘bargains’ and are willing to go the extra mile with research (spoilers: use local knowledge). I recently bought a really nice Surgeon’s jacket in brown corduroy by Nigel Cabourn (modelled loosely on the half belted Norfolk jacket worn by Dr...

    Very forlorn, but not whether this is any worse than the RMS Queen Mary (on which my late father served) done up like mutton dressed as lamb and populated by Disney World staff all pretending to be Dick Van Dyke in Cunard costumes.
