Good places to buy wool mix peacoat in London for <£100?

[Maverick_]

Hi guys

Any sugestions for places in London to go to for decent peacoats around £100? I am going out into central London this weekend to hunt for it, and am looking for a slim fit design.

I am 5'11, chest size of "38R (based on my suit fittings), I am looking to wear it over my suit for business, socials, bars etc.

River Island don't seem to be too bad: http://xml.riverisland.com/flash/content.php

I looked at TopMan and don't really like theirs.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

No idea who's doing what as I'm not in London (or even the UK) anymore. But if I were looking to spend 100 quid on one and was visiting town, I'd work my way down Oxford Street. Starting at Oxford Circus, I'd hit the big H&M, Muji, Top Man and Urban Outfitters, then head down towards Bond Street tube, taking in River Island, the Gap flagship store and the Marks and Sparks flagship. There's a big Uniqlo in Regent Street which is surely also worth a butchers. Seems to cover the most likely suspects, I think, and all within a 10 minute walk.

If it's a Saturday, I'd start early as it gets unpleasantly busy. I'd also treat myself to something small from Liberty's or Selfridges - pair of socks, pocket square or some such. And then I'd head to the Coach and Horses at Cambridge Circus to sink a couple of well-earned pints of London Pride before finding somewhere to watch the football results coming in. Not that I'm homesick or anything...

[Edit. And another thing, is it going to be long enough to wear over a suit? They often aren't]
