I just picked up both of these coats from Amazon at 1/2 of the prices listed on the ** website - so about 75% off list. They are both surprisingly nice in my opinion - not superb but pretty decent at this low price point. I have some concern on the (i) looks like old man stuff and (ii) quality may be lacking. Anybody have any opinions on these coats or ** quality in general?
And, of course, size down at least 1. I am a 42 or 44R depending on cut and the medium fits me well.

I don't think you should have too many questions about quality. It's not going to be Brioni, and even some of the Collection pieces are made in Asia, but the fabrics and construction have always seemed pretty good to me. I personally like the suede car coat better (doesn't look old man to me at all), though it is more expensive. Alternatively, there is a nice Hickey Freeman horsey jacket on amazon as well.
