For those of you curious about Pre Ordering the bond jacket; My coworker over at Barbour by David Wood has them available for reserve in Medium & Large. My understanding is that we're looking for an initial deposit of 100 bucks to show you mean business and that the jackets ought to be shipping in January to us, then to you. They do run a bit slim (as do most beacon / to ki tos) and theyre way more functional than the movie really shows since there's so many under layers and storm flaps and all sorts of goodies that really up the jacket's game (these are all detachable if you want to just utilize the sports jacket aspect of it)

Email Rori at [email protected] for any more information.

Oh maybe, I thought it was only by e-mail. I didn't check the site. I wanted a medium.

Afraid Rori's supply is all spoken for. Anywhere else?


yeah you guys blew up the spot! the L on the website ~may~ have been accounted for over the course of the day; I know there's some back and forth about these right now so if any sizes free up I'll keep you guys up to date

I want to buy a Classic Beaufort in olive Sylkoil but am uncertain which size to go for.
I am a 35-36inch chest and am uncertain if I should go for size 36 or size down to 34 to make it a little less baggy fit, what would you recommend?

I sized down for my 38 chest. I have pics posted of me wearing the 36 Beaufort.

Thanks Winston, great help.
The Beaufort looks good on you, so I'll try sizing down as well :)

Something to keep in mind though. I took the picture with an unstructured sportscoat underneath, plus I do not have the liner (future purchase) in either. I am not sure if I can fit the sportcoat or a structured sportcoat (read heavy padded) underneath with the liner in.

Thanks, what a tease tho they put the beacon heritage up but you cant get in the actual page for it

265 for a bedale is pretty much unbeatable right?
