Hey!

Been on the market for a new coat I thought I might as well try to find something high quality this time.

Posting in here incase anyone has something like what I'm looking for lying around.

my sizing aprox:
chest around 100cm ~ 39in
waist around 90cm ~ 35in
shoulder 46cm ~ 18in
arm 62cm ~ 24.5in

Located in Finland, so EU offers preferred.

^ Things I really like the look of:
Shawl Collars, Be it a thick wool jacket or a leather jacket.
Barnstormer style.

(Above jackets from top left, Joe McCoy Shawl, Aero Barnstormer Shawl, Aero Blizzard, RMC Railroad Coat, ???, Simmons Bilt Montana, Eastman WW1 pilot)

Just to clarify, I'm not looking for only these in particular, but these are some that I've come across while searching.

Thanks!

I got one by Ralph Lauren, nice hefty leather, french seams, very high quality workmanship. The leather is pre-distressed though, so it may not be for everyone. Personally, I think it's well done though and looks good. It comes at the fraction of the price one of these others shown above there, too. Unfortunately a size too large for me, I am 176 cm, 69 kg. Can post pictures if you're interested.

Sure, pm me pics or post them here.

This is my favorite one!

I would offer my German 1930s one, but the shoulders might be tight, and it’s in Los Angeles.
Buzz Ricksons has some amazing looking stuff, but 2 grand is a bit over budget for me.

As a side note, I was considering getting a new Simmons Bilt montana. I swear I saw it priced 600£ on their website yesterday but now its jumped to 900£.
