I've contacted the distributor to get this in my size but no luck so far. Anyone know where I can get a nice wool military style coat/jacket like this?

I dont really dig on too many of the military looks but I like that jacket. It would never work for me but if you can pull it off I say do it.

Dude I have just seen your shoes on your myspace site. Pretty sweet are they Alfredo Bannister?

I might be wrong but that looks very similar to a WWI-era tunic.

Perhaps google WWI re-enactment groups and ask where they source their gear?

It is very WWI, yes.

Here are some places that supply re-enactors:

eBay is your friend. I snagged a Swedish WW2 gray woolen tunic/jacket that was pretty much NOS, in pristine shape for $17 or so

I just saw that on sale at shopjake.com for $165.

Nope, but I bought them at a store in Shibuya (there is an Alfredo Bannister store in Harjuku, basically the next hood over). I love the shoes, one of my favorite pairs, Ill probably buy another pair or two this summer.

I have just bought the said jacket from shop jake.

Pretty hardcore jacket but I'm curious to see how one could pull it off.

 

[redmania]

I'm begining to wonder whether I'm ever gonna get to wear it. It's 90F at the moment in Melbourne. I'll have to wait until May June July ish to show you.

Check out this triple 5 soul jacket. It's military style, but a little more detailed -- and CHEAPER!

I dig the mao suits because I think they look quite radical, though I couldn't pull it off. Otherwise, unless it has some other significance, anything that's too fake-military-style [or camoflage print for that matter] is not something I go for.

Looks costumey to me. If you're asking WW2 reenactors where they get their clothes, it's time to take a step back and tone it down a touch.
