    WTB, WWI era Navy peacoat. Size 38.

    I don't know if in the meantime your budget has increased; anyway: http://www.ebay.com/itm/vtg-WWI-Navy-Blue-PEACOAT-Military-Jacket-38-Small-WOOL-/262178385436?hash=item3d0b0cae1c I guess it could be interesting for the peacoat fetishists outside there, because of the super detailed photo set...

    Yes. Could it be a tight 36? The fact that these old coats often come with no size number makes quite aleatory talking about size in terms of 34, 36, etc.

    WWII Peacoat Acquisition

    On VintageTrends the coat was listed as a size 32, but it has no tag, so we can derive the actual size from measurements: p2p 19,3'' (49 cm); shoulder to shoulder 18 (46 cm); shoulder seam to end of the cuff 24,5'' (62 cm) length 30,7'' (78 cm). For comparison, my labelled 34R 1966 peacoat...

    WWII Peacoat Acquisition

    …To be frank, I was just fooling around. But you're right, the line between modeling and silliness is razor thin. That said, it's an honor, Mr. Peacoat. I'll post some brand new poses with my 32ish WWII peacoat (it shipped three days ago from VT) when i'll get my hands on it.

    WWII Peacoat Acquisition

    Bump. Hello to the Lounge. I'm the happy possessor of a nice 1966 peacoat, found on eBay thanks to the marvelous tips from Mr.Peacoat. It's 19'' p2p (measured Mr.Peacoat style), 17,7'' shoulder seam to shoulder seam, 25'' from shoulder seam to end of the cuff, and it fits well to my chest...
