Ah summerfags and peacoats

>>6818868
something warm. Here it was -33 celcius (-27 F) at its highest last winter

Can an m65 be tailored to fit a skinnier guy better? I have been hunting for a navy colored one that isn't 1000 bucks but I keep coming up short so I was looking into Alpha Industries. For that cheap, I figure I could afford to tailor it.

>>6818907
>at its highest
do u live in the arctic?

>>6818875
Two years ago you were probably making peacoat inspiration threads

The queeeeennn. I found a guys jacket (I'm a girl) at H&M that looks just like Alice's and it's fucking rad

>>6819013

>>6819013
every girl wears this jacket you uninspired pleb
have fun looking like everyone else

are you nerds seriously dissing peacoats while having every jacket thread be a parka thread

parkas look like shit peacoats are 6.5/10 deal with it fuccbois

Lol fucc alice glass she only looks good in the celestica vid in a a meunsterscore sort of sense

Parkas > peacoats

Just to make bandit mad
Leather > parkas > peacoats

>>6819112
leather is even more played out than peacoats

>>6819112
all 3 are totally different styles tho
parkas and leathers are both good when used right, but in different ways
(peacoats are fedora-tier though)

>>6819119
yeah but leather doesn't look le classy

>>6818989

>>6819547
there are teirs for the duffle coat, all of them based on price
the $100-$200 range are awful looking and probably don't perform very well, either because they are not down filled or because too much synthetics were used.
$200-400 range can perform pretty well, like canada goose. still some synthetics being used but the down is usually real/natural, but the majority of these don't look very nice. no harm in owning one but don't expect to be styling

$500+ can get you something stylish with real down and decent construction, the more you pay here usually results in nicer build quality,

I just realised you asked about duffel coats not puffer jackets, what the fuck am I doing. well whatever.

>>6819631
500+ dollars for a jacket?? Are you a billionaire???

>>6819629

I love V Ave Shoe Repair. I find that a lot of their pieces are much more subtle in person and assembled into an outfit than most people expect. Enjoy it, anon.

I really want this.

>>6819644

>>6819631

I think the real question people don't ask enough is whether or not they really want down/feather. A lot of the down substitutes are great (notably stuff like Primaloft) if you want insulation, but NOT the bulk.

>>6819644
it's more like $500 if they're on sale and you get fucking lucky, or someone resells, a good quality nice down jacket are usually between $800-$1200

down is the shit. I own a wings+horns down jacket in tweed, you don't sweat balls because it's not synthetic, but you can keep warm in it in arctic temperatures.
it's rare that I even get a chance to wear it here in canada, but when it is that cold, I'm the comfiest motherfucker for miles.

>>6819663
yeah I've been asking myself that too, especially after looking into primaloft. specifically this jacket

it's not something you realize until you experience owning a down jacket how almost unnecessarily warm it is, and how puffy it is makes it awkward for anyone who doesn't actually plan to keep on it and stay outside for the duration of the day.
if I get a chance I'll buy this jacket and compare the two, primaloft looks undoubtedly much more breathable and versatile.

>>6818875

>>6819693
that looks like something on sale at ROSS

I just started going to uni, majoring in computer science.
Half the people in my classes wear peacoat(it's fucking +80F, wtf), and the other half wear fedoras.
I'm honestly the only somewhat normal person in there.

>>6819711

Burton/Element stuff that you find at a TJ Maxx or whatever never has a modern, contemporary cut like an Isaora or Arcteryx Veilance. I see what you mean, but I think the silhouette alone (not even counting the actual technical materials and detailing) makes it stand far apart from stuff like that.

>>6819677
>a good quality nice down jacket are usually between $800-$1200

This is blatant misinformation.

Eddie Bauer INVENTED the down jacket. You can go to their website and pick out one you like for under $300.

Down jackets for over $1000 is just an example of finding a niche market (in this case, "people who will spend $1000 on a down jacket"). Price =/= quality

it's a dermizax shell with PCM liner and primaloft insulation.
tech based items usually don't have very visually impactful textures, not from afar at least.

>>6819645
yeah just found them recently and most of their garments are really nice, like alot of their tees.

bump, i've been waitng for that kind of a thread

i'm thinking camo.
is it too played out already?

>>6819799
autism

>>6819651
since when was Our legacy autism? I love that jacket. it's not supposed to have a slim fit either.

>>6819759
it's a misnomer to believe the inventor is always at the front line of quality.
and I made the distinction that higher up in price reflected a nicer aesthetic as well as more natural building materials like wool, which is a personal bias I hold to as I know how gross you end up feeling if you wear a nylon lined down jacket, I also just prefer how natural materials look over synthetic ones.
lastly, price has baring more in style than anything else, you will pay over $500 to look nice if you want a down jacket, or you'll pay $300 to look like you want to be warm and don't care for anything else superfluous

/fa/ = superfluous + quality
find a down jacket with both under $500 and I'd be genuinely impressed.

>>6819759

I think "quality" for that anon might also include things like fit and detailing. An Eddie Bauer jacket will hold up great, but it'll fit like a box.

what about this one?

>>6819799
Yes

>>6819819
Not the guy you responded to but I learned something from your posts in this thread, thanks


Now if I can only win the mega millions lotto or invent virtual reality pornography to be able to afford some good jackets..

>>6819840

Hate the branding the zipper pulls and the lack of cohesion between all the notions.

>>6819840
Too many unnecessary pockets

>>6819786
yes

i bought this stephan schneider one on sale, might sell though

>>6819922
Damn b, I like.

>>6818957
Anyone?

>>6819851
>>6819860
alright, thanks.
what about this one?

>>6819845
thanks, but don't buy down unless you live somewhere where it is truly cold, like well below freezing
it's not supposed to be a windbreaker either, but the shear volume does stop wind too, so it's a great jacket if there's a combination of windchill and cold.
and don't ever get it soaked.

>>6819922
looks nice

>>6819954
if the shoulders fit tailoring wont be a problem

it would be easier to just get a slim fit m65 though

>>6819786
looks dope, make sure you know you can pull it off and use it though, most of your wardrobe should be black.

>>6819954
Last time I checked, alpha industries had a slim fit one

>>6819922
looks comfy as fuq, good cop

>>6819964
no, looks cheap

>>6820010
I'm changing my wardrobe at the moment, I just don't know how long the 50% sale is going to last. I still have a couple months before i'm going to need it.

>>6820024
im on a budget ;__;

>>6820046
buy used

>>6819819
>it's a misnomer to believe the inventor is always at the front line of quality
I knew someone would say this.

Eddie Bauer is still an outdoor sporting outfitter. They are going to do the necessary research and design implementation to stay on the cutting edge.

>and i made the distinction...anything else superfluous
In this section, you're basically saying "I will pay more for a jacket if I like it." No one is saying that's wrong. Style is ultimately about personal taste, first.

MY point is that a good down jacket can be acquired for much less money than that anon mentioned. In this moment, I just wanted to raise objection to the idea that one has to spend $800 to get a quality piece of clothing. Because it just isn't true.

>>6819663
>>6819739

speaking of that jacket with the primaloft, I just ordered it. looks like the price dropped another $70 from it's already half priced discount.

now I get to compare my classic W+H down to a tech jacket with it's own modern down alternative.

>>6819821
I see what you're getting at, but you make it sound like the equivalent of wearing a literal "box."

It's a piece of outerwear that has been crafted to maximize both warmth and ease of movement. Anon would not be walking around in a sleeping bag.

>>6819970
Any idea w2c a slim fitting navy m65 then? I already have parkas in black and olive so I was looking to mix it up with something with a liner for maximum cozy.


>>6820015
They don't carry their slim fit in navy. Only olive and black.
And I feel like for a 300 - 500 budget I can do better anyways.

>>6819922
Did you buy it online on sale? I can't find it on suspension point.

>>6820080

I don't see how this addresses the fact that people are looking for fashionable, well-fitted clothing. If people wanted to discuss nothing but milsurp and Eddie Bauer and LL Bean they'd be on /out/.

>>6820105
yeah it was the last one on suspension point

>>6820150
Ahh, well nice cop.

>>6820109
>people are looking for fashionable, well-fitted clothing
Agreed. They're looking for fashionable, well-fitted clothing that THEY like.

This may be hard for you to believe, but THEIR tastes may not always involve dropping three weeks' pay on a super obscure boutique jacket.

>>6819970
Looks nice

>>6819922
Not my style

>>6819840
Looks kinda clunky and it might be hard to pull off if you don't have broad shoulders

I was thinking a thin windbreaker, maybe from North Face? To wear over my sweaters then just stick in my locker all day. What can you guys recommend?

>>6820054
>I just wanted to raise objection to the idea that one has to spend $800 to get a quality piece of clothing. Because it just isn't true.

I agree, and I never said that you couldn't find something good in a much lower price range
>>6819631
>$200-400 range can perform pretty well
>no harm in owning one but don't
I'm not really arguing with you, I just don't think my post contains anything relevant to your objection

Where could I cop something like this?

Ah yeah, that and the shoulder whateverthefuck flappity thing def irked me. Just confirms the suspicion. Thanks. I just rly like w+h coats / jackets and this one was p. Cheap on ebay

>>6819799
Wait a few years. Even if you can pull it off, you'll just look clueless and late. A few years from now though and you'll just look like you like camo.

>>6821370
I still don't get it.

>>6821436

I don't know what or if it's lined with anything
if it had goretex or anything really I'd be interested.
without it though, at that price tag $575 arcteryx will definitely out perform.

>>6820541

You ain't pulling that shit off unless you're over the age of 35.

>>6821772
not the measurements, i mean like is it tts or does it run small or large

Anyone know about the sizing on this?

>>6821764
Jackets are for that age anyways.

sorry if this is slightly off topic, but what are the hoodies with the extra drawstrings on the midsection called? any good brands?

Is there a hybrid between leather jacket and normal jacket?
I can't find something that would go with some leather 6" work boots.

>>6820104
Bump, looking for slim fitting navy m65 ideas.

Thoughts?

>>6822716

that collar is atrocious

dnc

Anyone seen anything with a cape?

>>6822730
What do you think is wrong with the collar? Too small?

Simple.

I dunno WHAT you guys are talking about, peacoats are snuggly as fuck and people have, on several occasions, asked me where they could buy them.

I wanna know, what does /fa/ have against them? Pretty much all my real life experience has been the opposite of what /fa/ feels about them.

>>6822953

>>6822953
Well, you would freeze to death in that over here...

>>6824420
lol it looks fine

>>6824409
>>6824409
That's because you hang around with poor people. People who don't have enough money to buy a good coat buy a peacot, or wear a fedora on their often quite gargantuan head.Unless you're a captain of the seas, it makes you look like a retard and retards aren't /fa/, comprende?

>>6824435

>>6824438
Okay, but I want a little more explained.
>What is a "good coat"?
>How much does a "good coat" cost?
>As much of a stretch as this question is, what, exactly, makes it look retarded?

I mean, I hung out with my ex-prestigiousexpensiveprivatecountryschool classmates. They're the ones that wanted to know where to buy one, you see.

>>6824438
They're versatile and classy stfu

>>6824438
This has got to be a troll. I think they're /fa/ as FUCK fuccboi

>>6824445
If you want an example of a brand that produces great jackets and coats, look at Herno.

Peacoats are for hipsters who like to show that they're part of the working-class, when they're not. So take your cock-craving mouth and shut it.

>>6824464
Chillax bruh.
By that logic, Chinos are for people who wanna associate with 1800's armies.
Not only that, but if they're so "poor people", then they ARE for the working class?
I'm not really drawing much from your argument.

>>6820541
Yes goy! Start buying our clothes! Soon you will become one of us!

I'm going to buy an ultra light down jacket from uniqlo and then a topcoat later in the year. Anyone recommendations?

Not really winter clothing imo, but can anyone tell me an army surplus online store with camo jackets, I've seen one mentioned before here

>>6824464
Poor people aren't /fa/, you nutsack. I mean my God...

Just because something is played out on Internet forums or in metropolitan areas, that doesn't mean it is played out in your area. Even these days of social media and fast fashion there is still a time lag in fashion.

>>6824510

This. People are just now hopping on the floral and Nike Free Run train where I live.

>>6824510
I live in Rural New Zealand, rite.
We are a country of 4 million people. In my rural community, I've seen a whooole bunch of swagulons running around with puffer jackets (SO MANY PUFFS) and Vans and shit... Same with the town I lived in before. I've been to the city, if anything, fashion there is much more conservative: Plenty of people were wearing peacoats. That is not to say that there wasn't still massive swagulon presence though.

Is this "fashion lag" nation-wide or wut? Cause I have friends in Ammurika who seem to be experiencing SIMILAR trends, but they are a tad different.

>>6824421

Doesn't get too cold over here in Dallas. And I'm just using this for Fall for school.

Should I cop?

>>6822716
It's fine, but it only works with what model is wearing. Also, cheap model stance.

>>6827421
Nah, find something else. There's better shit out there. Hugobossdabestheuheueheuheu

Trench coats > Pea Coats.
Pea coats fit like shit and are nothing more than a slightly shorter shortened trench coat.

If you are afraid to wear one, then you are just too busy buying into the le fedora movement on /fa/

>>6819629
