On Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MESE:IT&ih=015 Up for sale is a gorgeous Asprey overcoat that is being sold on consignment for a forum member. From searching the forum, it looks like Loro Piana is the manufacturer of their outerwear and knit goods. Tagged Euro 52, US 42. Brand new, never worn. Incredible 50% cashmere 50% cotton oatmeal-colored fabric. This is a medium-weight fabric that should be warm enough to wear over a suit when the temperature dips down into the 40's, so this coat should carry you into November, and can be brought out again in the early spring. If you live in a warmer, temperate climate, this coat would be suitable for winter-long wear. Four main buttons on the front, and a fifth button that accommodates the lapel buttonhole for extra cold days. Patch pockets. Lots of pick-stitching throughout the jacket. Single rear vent. Fully-canvassed, of course. Interior lining looks hand-stitched. Signature purple bemberg lining. Really neat purple/white striped sleeve lining. Made in Italy. This coat is brand new and has never been worn. Price is $750 shipped (or best offer) including insurance. Retail price on this coat was $3500 or so. It measures 25.5" underarm to underarm, 27" sleeve cuff to shoulder seam, 20.5" shoulder seam-to-seam, 47" from bottom of the collar to bottom of the coat. It will be moved to Ebay on Sunday if it does not sell here.
