Match this Robert Redford sportcoat

[jmcooper24]

Any ideas where I can get something like the coat Redford is rocking in this picture?

Go to Brooks Brothers or Ralph Lauren and find a grey herringbone tweed two button jacket. Voila.

Do you think this is herringbone? I thought it might just be sort of a mottled wool (imprecise terminology, I'm sure) like this... http://www.bananarepublic.com/browse...846&pid=594606

the 'naner republic coat isn't bad, personally though I'd go with a brooks brother/ralph lauren simply because they are better made and it is likely you could get one for just a little bit more than the price of that one you mentioned.

Nice look. J Keydge in Paris sells sporty, "slack" jackets like that, a French take on the Ivy League style. I don't know if you have stockists in the US: http://www.jkeydge.com/

That BR jacket looks pretty close.

That J Keydge site cracks me up. I had no idea that Ivy League Style, complete with pictures of Yale, could sell clothes in France.

Best is, they list Flusser as a stockist... so it's French people aping Ivy League style, selling it back to the US.

Their jackets are pretty good, though.

I think you're talking about Donegal Tweed.

Nice stuff. It looks comfortable and casual. I like the variety of colors too.

Are those Raichles?

 

[grimslade]

They look like they could be.

When Redford wore a pea coat in this movie ^ -- Three Days of the Condor, I had to have one too.

When I watched the movie the coat caught my attention for another reason: Its inside is dark red! This is a very important detail. Does anyone know where I can find a slim fit, grey tweed/wool sportscoat with two buttons and side vents with red lining?

Thanks in advance!

I think some bespoke tailors might consider doing this.
