Quality appears lacking for the price.

Looks nice. If I did the conversion right, about $1,100+ USD. Seems a little expensive, so if you get it, give it the onceover pretty good so you can determine quality v. price, as the previous poster has noted.

The product page uses a "as seen in GQ" logo, reminiscent of something you'd see featured in an infomercial. That alone is reason not to buy.

That looks like a double-breasted version of my old couch.

I don't think I'd pay $110 for it

If you can get a vintage Crombie, go for it, but their newer stuff isn't all that great.

Not a fan of Double Breast style. Material seems great. The price is seem too high.

If GQ recommends it , avoid it like the plague.

I appreciate each and every post and thank you very much for taking the trouble to advise me.

Out of all the available coats in stock, my favourite is this one:

Yeah, no real criticism of the coat you're looking at. Looks nice, fabric looks good, and camel is always nice. I don't subscribe to the GQ hate that MC harbors (not that I subscribe to GQ either), so that "AS SEEN IN GQ" means nothing to me either way. Above all, I know nothing of Crombie, and thus couldn't offer any real criticism if I tried.

Isn't there an almost new Hermes overcoat in the B&S forum on here for sale for almost the same price?
