My apologies, I couldn't find the rules find out about thread necromancy. as such, i'm makin' a new one! hi. Found this forum searching for an orange trench seen on Gossip Girl [another member had made a thread for it]. unfortunately, the search was never concluded. I'm hoping I may have some more luck. I would actually probably prefer double breasted if it was found. Something like this, in a bright orange, would be absolutely perfect.

I believe it's a Philip Lim Inspector Coat like this, but it's not double breasted and the comment was rather vague. so uh. Been searching far and wide with no success. Any takers?

That's an amazing find Jimmy, something cheap on eBay is absolutely ideal for me. It's too bad it's so short, and miles too big (I've a 38" chest, that's a 50"

). I can't thank you enough for the effort though, it's closer than I ever found. I'll be able to find out tomorrow Edi, check back here.

That is actually your size. The seller says it's a Medium although the pictures are of an XL:
"SIZE: MEDIUM ( THIS AUCTION IS FOR A SIZE MEDIUM, ALTHOUGH THE PICTURE SHOWS AN XL)".
Therefore it's a Euro 48 which means a 38.

I've seen a Uniqlo coat exactly like that from 2 years ago.

It says on the seller's measurements "CHEST 48-50"", though.

Yeah but that wouldn't be a medium at 48" lol I'd rather go with the manufacturer's tag.
You can always ask the seller but I'm not even sure if an XXXL would have a 50" chest, let alone a Medium.
