Has the humpty dumpty look down pat, complete with his face looking like he literally just fell off a wall

Well, he is wearing a woman's jacket that's made for a 5' nothing woman.

And for the record, he looks pretty damn silly.

This thread comes in good time as I have just acquired a brown waxed cotton motorcycle jacket, similar to the famed Belstaff ones.

I was just wondering if anybody could comment on how one would wear this peice without looking douchy or too edgy?

just about anything works with a Barbour. I've worn my old Beaufort with everything from jeans to a suit. From hunting to going out to a fine restaurant.

Agreed. My bedale comes out of the wardrobe weather I'm nipping into town or going to court. They look great with both denim and a suit.

doesn't look much better than the pregnant guy from the earlier picture. both guys look like they bought their jackets a size too small

I usually wear jeans with boots!
Barbours work with anything, if this is a brand you like I'm doing a project on barbour for my college, would you spare some time to fill in my survey?
Its just to find the demographics of a barbour customer!

Thanks in advance
