    Splendid, old bean! The trickiest part for me was actually getting the brass clips off at the top of the zip. Eventually, using pliers at the edges of the clasp I inserted the small screwdriver in to twist the head and separate the clip. Aligning the top zip to run down was a bit finicky but not too much. Fabulous! My Border jacket belonged to my father-in-law. I inherited it in 1999. I’ve no real idea how long he’d had it. I know he’d be pleased I’m still wearing it. And even more pleased I’ve learned how to fix it! He was a can-do-anything kind of man. Thank you.

    So when I take my arm measurement from shoulder to “where the thumb webbing meets the hand” it is 24.5”. When they make the jacket will they reduce the sleeve length appropriately? Since a sleeve that long wouldn’t be right for a suit since I would want some cuff exposed.

    I have several of those non-iron oxford shirts in short and long sleeves and I love them. The only thing I might remove half a star for is the fact that they have a small chess logo. It’s not obnoxious or in your face, but it would be even better if it wasn’t there at all. Still though, only a minor gripe

      The zipper on my Bartbour jacket wouldn't come out because the connection was thickened at the top - I removed the "thickening" with a pair of scissors and it was easy :) The end stoppers are now a centimeter further down, but that's not particularly tragic - now I'm fit for winter even with a loden jacket.

    Just fixed my dad’s 30 year old barber for him. He’s over the moon! Thanks so much for this. Had to unpick the sewing at top of his zip so there was enough room to slip off the zippers on his. Everything else worked a charm two tries and it was realigned perfectly, then I sewed it back together where I’d unpicked the tucked in ends of the zipper. Thanks :)

    I’ve just ordered a double breasted long length overcoat from them in navy Alpaca. It cost £535. I hope it looks as good as I expect it to. They have a more automatic measuring method now, using height, weight and age. After the info is calculated, it told me my measurements were accurate. They sounded right, so I ordered, I’m a bit nervous although I’ve had success with online tailoring so far. I ordered the coat based on the material and the sheen that it promised, which was what I wanted from a smart double breasted long overcoat. I don’t like the slightly girly short coat lengths. If it rains, your knees get soaking wet, making the coat of little use. I’m surprised at the quick dispatch time! I’m using the excuse for buying this because my wife got a long sheepskin coat which turned out to be a fantastic bargain at just under £500, when they cost over £1000! I will give an update on my coat when I receive it.

      @@cleavelandcoleman1788 My coat turned out to be even better than I expected! It weighs a ton. Honestly many of the overcoats I see online are too short and are lightweights like the androgynous people who wear them. I remember coats way back when they were always heavy and this one is exactly how they used to be. The surface of this 80% wool 20%Alpaca feels so soft and I stroke my arms 😂. It also gets admired by the ladies who also like to stroke it😁😍. The dark red paisley pattern lining looks fantastic too. The coat has a lovely sheen to it which ads to its luxurious look. I feel like a million dollars in it. It fits perfectly and is money well spent.

      Thanks for the information! You took away my doubt and uncertainty to buy an overcoat by Hockerty. I already personalized one with the same fabric and now I know I can proceed with the order. For the measurements I will use a tape measure anyway. After a year, is it still in a good shape? The construction, the stitching etc. how are they?

      @jazzman1626 Місяць тому

      @@Err_Pammda Yes, the coat is still in first class condition! It’s as good as the day I first got it. btw, my coat is black, not navy. I’m an old guy now, in my late 60s and I’m thinking of getting a charcoal grey trilby to keep my balding pate from the cold. I have a black flat cap, but I think a trilby will look much better with this style of coat. My wine coloured scarf which is silk Paisley pattern on one side and wool on the other which is next to my skin, looks a great compliment to the black of the coat. I find myself taking my time when taking it off so that I can admire the amazing lining. It’s one of the best garments I’ve ever bought. Let me know how it went for you when you get your coat.

      As an Ancient Mariner I have looked forward to this day with open arms. Can this be? A revived interest in looking nice? Amazing. Who would ever have thought it? I had assumed all my dockers were doomed to a continued life of dust and neglect. Now, all I have to do to feel comfortable going out is to open my closet door. Have any of you converts considered donating all those T-shirts of yours to a needy landfill ? And for g's sake, get some sport coats that cover your ass. You all look like half-assed women going down the street. If you guys want to flash some ass, it should be all. Or nothing. Girls wear butt-highs to attract males in heat. Boys might examine the close association between your navel and your waist. Looking like a prisoner with a mal-nourished flat butt hanging down, and out, seems politically incorrect for these times. Preppy eschews tacky. At all costs. What good is a bright and smiling face if your butt is dark and smelly ?
