I found a random picture of an old Russian GQ magazine with Jake Gyllenhaal wearing a nice looking herringbone coat. Anyone know where I can cop something like this?

Looks like Dior Homme. That coat (or something nearly identical to it) was all over the magazines F/W2005 (I think)

I searched thrift and vintage stores near me pretty thoroughly for a coat like that and couldn't fine one.

The cut looks basically like a four-button peacoat. Does Sterlingwear's custom-order program offer fabrics like this? The bespoke route would probably be cheaper than Dior retail, and it may be the only way to get a herringbone that big.

Yea, I really like peacoats which is why I think I'm attracted to this herringbone coat. I dunno, is the peacoat syle not a standard cut for this type of coat? How much you guys think a bespoke coat like that would cost?

Sterlingwear has a custom-order program?
