Hi guys,

Just wanted some feedback from you on a Ralph Lauren sport coat that I am thinking about buying (http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/...60&ab=ln_men_cs1_sportcoats&parentPage=family). I was hoping to buy tomorrow while the sale is still on. I want a casual coat to wear with jeans to dinner and other low key events. I am 6'2' 160 lbs if that helps with sizing it up. I prefer something that is slim fitting, nice tailoring.

Please let me know you thoughts on this coat or any alternatives.

Thanks,

-Shaun

Looks nice, but for 3 bills, it seems like a lot (for a chino khaki cotton blazer). For that kind of material, might as well go for something at H&M/Zara/etc. JMO

I don't like the lapels. I think you can do better, but if you like it, it's only $300.

Just please don't wear it like the model. Yuck.
