What do you guys think of this style overcoat for next year? I think we can do it for $398 USD in an Italian Wool. 670 gsm. Fairly thick and warm too. Don't hold me to the price, we haven't sampled yet. But I have the mill for the cloth.

Would love something like this for the winter. A solid grey or navy would be nice.

These are the VBC flannels I'm considering

Great fabric choices! Count me in.

No purple option smh. I guess I’d settle for a grey herringbone topcoat (only because I want to see a brown herringbone sportcoat for FW18).

2513 really looks great too.

I quite like the design of this coat, the more I look at it, the more I dig it. I think that'll be a definite purchase for me in that rust/brownish color.

@spiermackay

And Rick, if you guys can do a suit in that light blue/grey check color that you posted a couple pages ago, in a wool/linen for spring, it's a definite purchase for me. I love the look, it's the perfect color/pattern for what I'm shooting for.

Can't wait to see the whole SS18 collection.

As long as there is a grey or brown herringbone option for the coat then I'll be ready to throw my money at it today.

That's not even fair.

I'll just throw in a pic of my Luigi Bianchi Mantova double breasted overcoat with peak lapels to add to the ideas.

Crappy pics but beautiful coat.

I like this colour the most

I would pre-order the grey in heartbeat if it comes in 36 Contemporary.

Bought some slim fit shirts during Black Friday and mail forwarded them to Australia.

Fits like a tent - larger than Charles Tyrwhitt's extra slim fit. [Edit: sorry to see my comment has offended someone apparently.]

Going to pony up and pay for alterations though (sleeve width, armhole and sides/back) because the quality is definitely there, whereas with Charles Tyrwhitt I'd just put up with an imperfect fit in the sleeves (DIY darts in the back for $0).

I look forward to when you release some true slim fit shirts - it would be nice to see slimmer sleeves/smaller armholes (then I could get away with just back DIY back darts if necessary).

Depending on how much your alterations cost, MTM might end up being the way to go for you. I just took the plunge after trying three different sizes and none of them fitting well. Bundle pricing and Boxing Day sale knocking another 20% off brought the price down to fairly close to what you’d pay for OTR without a sale.

Thanks for the suggestion - tricky bit is S&M not shipping to Australia, and having to use a freight forwarder. Can't believe I didn't think of MTM.

@spiermackay - Rick, what are the chances of shipping some MTM to Australia? I might cut my losses and offload the shirts I haven't opened yet to a boxier friend.
