Reply With QuoteA quick google says it's a Timberland Mount Mansfield Blazer, single breasted blazer/jacket.
Right my sartorial chums, I'm looking for a jacket like this but I don't know what the style is called to be able to do a search. Can anyone help?
Even better if you can find me one for around £30 ;)
Cheers,
David

Figured that out and added a bit, although someone else has a better description than me there.Yes I know what Timberland call it, I want to know what the style is called in the general world of fashion
are you sure this really is part of the world of fashion?
According to Estobans milkman, yes

"Fashion"? You're 'avvin a larf mate. Of the words used to describe a jacket like this there are none repeatable on the forum. I noticed that Timberland didn't dare show anyone actually wearing one of these! "Milkman's jacket" fits it best. lol (only joking folks)

David..... Casual unstructured jacket.
Rod
Cheers, I like that and the price is nice too.
Thanks Rod.
Yeh, as long as you're an extra small you'll be fine
Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
Just noticed that too.
Hi, this is probably best described as a unstructured cotton blazer\jacket. Lots of options around, and quite a versatile jacket.
H&M do something similar for a reasonable price - http://www.hm.com/gb/product/71362?article=71362-A
As do ASOS - http://www.asos.com/only-sons/only-s...2&gridcolumn=1
and Mango - http://shop.mango.com/GB/p0/men/clot...=1429986875736
All over your budget of £30, but still fairly reasonable, price wise.
Thanks for taking the time to do that search for me. The ASOS and Mango versions are just what I'm after. £30 was a little tongue in cheek as I can go to £60 so both of these are in the running.
David
No worries, I have lurked here for some time so thought I would try and help with my first post !
I have a slightly different jacket from ASOS, and it seems OK for the money.
Look for Swedish artisan jacket on eBay from seller bootesville
Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
Sorry. Didn't see the size. I bought one last Spring.
I'd call it a casual blazer with patch pockets
Lidl Blue Wonder?
Appears to be in a rather fetching Norman Wisdom style.
You'll get it here but you'll have to add a zero to your £30.

Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
That looks like a plumbers mates jacket, there should be a strip of hi-vis rubber across the shoulders at the back.You'll get it here but you'll have to add a zero to your £30.

Here is a tactical one or should I say tactile
Love it.
They seemed to be going for a very English look, the trouble is that it's the Arthur English look.Here is a tactical one or should I say tactile
Private White have them too - the Goodwood:

Many years ago I worked for a company selling a wide range of personal protective equipment and we sold jackets very much like this one. We simply called it a 'warehouse jacket'. We sold it alongside 'warehouse coats', the tan/brown long coat traditionally used in warehouses. As I recall we had them in tan/brown (don't recall what we officially called it) and navy blue.
Nice observation. I am regularly encouraged, at about 7.30 am by the sound of a milkman going about his duties, in North London. Absolutely magnificent, especially as one could walk 150 yards to a corner shop to secure dairy products. Hats off to well dressed Milkos.

Really pleased with mine

My Buy British made 2014 yielded one of these.

I bagged one for under a hundred so worth keeping an eye on deals.

The PW VC jacket is also English-made. Actually, Forum member DavidE / @GreyFoxBlog probably also has a few thoughts on these jackets...

SOAS have some really nicely made Japanese made versions in for summer

FYI I have the Mango jkt and it is a far softer jkt than the "warehouse" coat versions also I am a 42" chest and the XXL just does it for me IMO the Industrial clothing kit on E Bay or from a supplier would be every bit as good as the well overpriced offerings from the "designer" labels.
There stuff comes up very small or it used to, remember when you used to have to fill out the order form before they'd make anything. Well made though.
Need to put an order in with Son Of Stag
Yep follow David on Twitter and his blog. Excellent pound of reference.
Cheers bud
Paul
I doubt it - sounds a bit modern and, dare I say it, 20th century to me. 3M wasn't formed as a company until 1902
They seemed to be going for a very English look, the trouble is that it's the Arthur English look.
You make a fair point but then denim didn't start out in life as a fashion textile and a Burberry trenchcoat is fundamentally a WWI combat jacket.
We have a winner - spend a little bit on getting it tailored and you're on budget. Another idea would be to see what you can find in TK Maxx or Uniqlo.
Monty Don style: http://www.darcyclothing.com/shop/ja...ets-ja100.html
Family business being based in North Norfolk. They will tailor for the extra arm in the jackets and the extra large neck opening for ease over large foreheads. Oh and gloves with extra finger.
You now have the attention of every Klingon in the universe.
And my fellow EA's over the border
That's the jacket Johnny 'Nice Painter' used to wear in the Fast Show.....Black...black....it's all BLACK!!!....

In the next village to me - drive past them every day in the school run . wighton - home of the famous scarecrow festival. Not many people know that henry Moore lived there for six months when he was 19. He was staying with his sister was the local school teacher. When the current occupants of the old school house moved in , the garden still held a selection of overgrown and rather oddly shaped large stones . being artists themselves they recognised these for what they were - some of his early sculptures . rather than cashing in, they donated them to the Henry Moore foundation
Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
