Yea I like the coat because it's almost in between dress and casual. Looks a little like a blazer but then looks like regular outerwear.

I'm not sure at all, but the first thing that popped into my mind was maybe Burberry Prorsum. I thought that because it has sort of a classic look but with a slight fashion edge to it. But, honestly, I have no idea (it is classic enough that there could be any number of companies at any number of price points making it, from Zara on up).

That's funny that you said Burberry Prorsum because that is the very first thing I thought! I just got done looking through some of thier old collections and couldn't find it and thier website is of no real help.
Also,who the hell knows how old this coat might be....damn!

That was quick, Yves-Saint-Laurent also did some militarish coats that looked pretty good (with the "so hot right now"(tm) luxury safety pins included), you might want to check them out.

Thanks Fuuma, I'll have to check those out. Some of YSL's collections have been really good as of late. So this jacket is $750.

Yeah Pilati has been a breath of fresh air for the house, however be warned that their prices make Oliver Spencer look like a Walmart house brand...

LAguy-I am a size Large, but I don't think I can afford it at full retail. Now if it were on sale, that would be a whole different story all together. I am interested though.

Fuuma- Yea, it is pricey stuff that's for sure! I have to see if I can budget a thing or two from the new Cruise collection next year. That stuff is hot.
