plastic coats plastic people



Going to the craftsmen fair in Rho Milan yesterday there was a sea of Italians all dressed in their fav designer, who? The Chinese. And they look shite. Thousands of people coming and going dressed by Supermarkets, market stalls and the like and all plastic shite and all chinese, some call it poly something but me well I call it plastic. I never buy Chinese knowingly because we (above Crombie)should only buy their goods when their people have rights.Apart from that its crap and apart from that why support western capitalists in their search on greed.There are some blogs about style and clothes that keep on about how smart the Italians are, well dont believe itYesterday in Rho they looked to a man terrible..celebrity long coats for men - david beckham fall fashion style The idea of a good wardrobe is to avoid cheapo cheapos and have a few good pieces in your wardrobe that you add to each year with a good purchase.The Jaegar 200 pound trench above is a brilliant trad trench that immediately sets you apart from plastic coat.
below is a 795 pound coat from crombie, the price is over the top but if you have the money its not a bad buy and top qualityCrombie Outerweartheres nothing more boring than the plastic coat people but some of them have plastic coats that actually cost a great deal of money, for instance faye and north sails. The North sails plastic coats are like Marks and spencers 80's handicapped coats for the aged that have North Sails stamped on and yeah you are supposed to be looking at a fashion ikon.These are maybe the worst of the expensive plastic coats.Faye is worn by Milan business people over suits and costs a ton but was more likely made for 3 bob.City GentThis 795 pound jaegar coat is another very stylish item from the company if a bit overpriced.01 Warrior 3/4 Overcoat with Classic Red Liningthe warrior crombie is on sale from warrior clothing at 100 notes circa and is a good decent coat that for sure will look better than your plastic zip up.
a store always worth considering is charles tywhitt, this covert is on the 200 pound mark and thats cheap. save up a bit for a couple of months and its yours. And its also a coat to be excited about because you'll look the bizz. The word is Sharp not discreet, the weord is sharp not laid back, the word is sharp not flash.if you are looking for a more victorian look but elegant then one like this is not a bad idea.wool and cashmere Gianluca Isaia overcoat from STP but lose the white jumper thats shite.this chalkstripe is not great but better than most on the street but you could go for a check again from Tywhitthere .the only plastic coats I like are Alpha industries, the ma1, thats a great jacket for walking around and going in dodgy pubs where you-ll be recgonised as a geezer but I-ve got the rarest MA1 of all the Made in Usa Silver, its maybe the only one in London made in USA.Paul Smith London | Camel Soft Moleskin Epsom Coat by Paul Smith LondonI dont like Paul Smith much and never shop there really , once I was intent on buying their red oxblood suedes but to be honest they looked cheap. This classic overcoat though might be a good buy, its 500 quid.
That tired old brand M and S who still think their target is boozy stout office men from Moorgate does have now and again good stuff.They fall victim to latching onto a fashion idea years after it starts to go. This time short overcoats just as Armani has started to do ankle length.theyMarks and Spencer | Collezione Pure Cashmere Single Breasted 3 Button Coat are doing this 100 per cent cashmere one that would have been better longer.Another pet hate shop of mine is Hackett. I hate M and S because of the obvious mistakes they make in nearly everything they sell, its like their target is not just what I said above but add discreetly boring and you got the idea.But I hate Hackett because of their shop staff snobs.Charles Tywhitt are always nice even if you walk in with a t.shirt and jeans but Hackett no.Especially their shop in Piccadilly.thias covert coat is nearly twice Tywhitts one but no difference reallyand the crombie here is more than double tywhitts but no difference that stands out and if there is no one would know so why buy hackett.I don-t.
Another company that is worth looking into is Barbour, this is if you want somthing cooooooool that goes Barbour Mens Neander International Jacket - Black | Cardinal Tartanwith anything underneath above is the neander 200 notes.This kind of goes against what i-m saying in this article but these jackets are not plastic ones, this one, to me, the best, is linen that has been waxed,check it out.
