i get by with a shirt jacket for like 10 months of the year.

this from norse projects is mine

http://fashionstealer.com/PICTURES/STEALS/norse%20projects/norse_projects_bjorn_wool_shirt.jpg

but they don't make it any more and it is sort of dying via backpack wear after ~1yr

recommend me shirt jackets

woolrich do a few and they are cheap (and currently mostly out of stock)

Love these. Total art teacher-wear, hides my body, has pockets, can turn the collars up in a pinch. Best item ever along with long-line V-neck cardigans.

excellent for air travel!

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:26 (eleven years ago) link

At least one of my 3-season coats is actually one of these. Very tailored, 4 front pockets, one with flap. I want an identical one that's lined, could keep it another 20 years.

i kind of like this, although it is a bit more jackety than i am looking for

nice!

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:31 (eleven years ago) link

that is the cut i am looking for

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:31 (eleven years ago) link

Let's buy the same jacket.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:31 (eleven years ago) link

Then I'll find the perfect winter oxfords (to replace my half-linen ones I'm currently stretching past their fall expiration date) and we'll both look just like max.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:32 (eleven years ago) link

i got mine via a tip from max iirc

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:33 (eleven years ago) link

i even had it repaired in fort greene, which i think means i became max

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:36 (eleven years ago) link

Whoah idk what happened to llbean models but ws each and every shirted one.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:38 (eleven years ago) link

They're mostly the same guy so that's not completely outrageous.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:38 (eleven years ago) link

i am seriously tempted by that ridiculous houndstooth jacket but i am not sure i can pull it off

i would pay cash money for it right now if it came in like navy or green or charcoal or something sane

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:39 (eleven years ago) link

will probably just get a filson in navy (being boring)

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:40 (eleven years ago) link

and i will no doubt rue the lack of hip pockets

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:40 (eleven years ago) link

I require hand-area pockets. Prefer full-on patch pockets to those diagonal slashed ones but require SOMETHING.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:41 (eleven years ago) link

otm

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:44 (eleven years ago) link

the norse projects hip pockets are exactly 1 kindle in size

caek, Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:44 (eleven years ago) link

I just asked for the houndstooth one for Christmas since I can't find anyone stocking the Corcoran field boots that I actually need.

Goal until spring: dress like a paramilitary lumberjack.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:46 (eleven years ago) link

these usually seem to be more expensive than any shirt OR jacket I would buy, yet not as warm as an actual jacket

drunk 'n' white's elements of style (Hurting 2), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:46 (eleven years ago) link

Most winter coats are way too warm for me in the body, I just need sleeves and neck/ears to be covered.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:49 (eleven years ago) link

I ADORE the look of fitted formal coats on men and women both but I give up on wearing them--I beat the shit out of 'em carrying shoulder bags and swinging my arms and sweating in them, and I am ALWAYS sweating if I have to walk more than a couple of blocks. Ideally would want a winter coat with zipper vents under the arms and in the middle of the back. Will settle for houndstooth.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Thursday, 29 November 2012 16:51 (eleven years ago) link

I had a beautiful cross between a striped button down and a jeans jacket presumably from the mid 60s. I boughty it around '85 and lost it on my interail trip. Shame always wanted another one like it but have never to my kknowledge seen one.

Stevolende, Friday, 30 November 2012 08:58 (eleven years ago) link

I emailed my mom that houndstooth jkt for my Christmas list and she had just bought that exact one...for my brother. Now she's getting us the same thing.

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Saturday, 1 December 2012 21:26 (eleven years ago) link

Would really like to find out more about that button down collar jacket thing I had in the mid 80s. I got around to googling it over the week but didn't have any luck. Looked like it came out of a '66 mod/freakbeat photoshoot. So I wonder if there were many of them made or if it was a short-term fad out of Carnaby street, Lord John or something.

caek, Sunday, 2 December 2012 16:34 (eleven years ago) link

Welllllll I was wearing my no-brand grey wool shirt jacket on Saturday night and the ER doctors cut if off me, so Christmas will be just in time.

glad you're doing ok

the late great, Monday, 3 December 2012 18:22 (eleven years ago) link

otm. sorry your shirt jacket bore the brunt!

caek, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 17:18 (eleven years ago) link

i kinda prefer sweater jackets to shirt jackets cuz i find them warmer and idk cozier i guess, i like the extra bulk of a sweater but i do have one shirt jacket:

that i like a fair bit

f (Lamp), Tuesday, 4 December 2012 17:26 (eleven years ago) link

yeah i got a navy one like that by woolrich wm

the late great, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 17:42 (eleven years ago) link

CPO or cruiser jacket, right?

the late great, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 17:42 (eleven years ago) link

i think the cruiser coat is a little longer and has more pockets. thats supposed to be a 'hunting shirt' iirc.

i have been eyeing up the wwm flight jackets in blue tho. i kinda like the trend of making really heavy fitted blazer jackets like that, theres a nice boo two button tweed blazer jacket thats (unsurprisingly) steeply marked-down in my size that i want/have on my mental xmas wish list

f (Lamp), Wednesday, 5 December 2012 00:22 (eleven years ago) link

I have been into things that are definitely shirt-jackety of late

although I don't think that they integrate well with my other jacket interest that I discovered a couple years ago: the napoleon pocket

mh, Wednesday, 5 December 2012 16:52 (eleven years ago) link

shirt jackets still on my mind.

caek, Monday, 10 December 2012 06:32 (eleven years ago) link

but they don't make it any more and it is sort of dying via backpack wear after ~1yr

Don't think I'm ~manly~ enough to look good in a shacket. Come to think of it, using scare tildes is probably enough on its own to rule me out.

joe i think this would fit you in small

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NORSE-PROJECTS-SHIRT-SIZE-S-/121252699440

i had it in a medium and it was almost perfect (maybe a tiny, tiny bit big). first one i've seen on ebay for months.

caek, Sunday, 12 January 2014 17:20 (ten years ago) link

in fact that guy had two S for sale and i bought one to replace mine, so if it's too small when it arrives then will be happy to sell it to another US-based shirt jackets! thread user.

how do we feel about elbow patches on new clothing, i feel like they take that look too far (same thing with epaulettes)

caek, Tuesday, 14 January 2014 20:23 (ten years ago) link

the patches dont seem at all offense on that to me

i mean youll never see them

lag∞n, Tuesday, 14 January 2014 20:25 (ten years ago) link

i bought two rag & bone sweaters in 2012 with suede elbow patches and have worn the hell out of them. i like it a lot less on the rugged caj shirts

Lamp, Tuesday, 14 January 2014 20:27 (ten years ago) link

elbow "reinforcement" (same color as shirt) = np

elbow "patch" (contrast color / fabric) = suspect

the late great, Tuesday, 14 January 2014 20:28 (ten years ago) link

yeah that's basically how i feel i think.

i also think a slim fit small is going to be too small, especially when i get ripped from all the work i'm doing in my workwear

caek, Tuesday, 14 January 2014 20:29 (ten years ago) link

i also like the leather should patch celine thing that i've been seeing so its possible my opinion is, in fact, suspect here

also i gis'd for pictures of the sweater i have and they've dressed the models all like total dorks so i am v vulnerable right now also maybe i am a total dork

It doesn't really seem to hang on the model v well? The front view is unconvincing, makes it seem too light and insubstantial to fall like it should.

i mean its totally on me not even considering the itchiness but i did expect it to be a lil heavier

im not like a huge layerer so maybe it just doesnt fit my lifestyle

you should layer!

haha wait until you see this next idea i have u will def think me quite mad

lag∞n, Tuesday, 21 January 2014 20:25 (ten years ago) link

maybe i can get my tailor to put a lining in the sleeves is this insane y/n

lag∞n, Tuesday, 21 January 2014 20:26 (ten years ago) link

that is bananas

caek, Tuesday, 21 January 2014 20:32 (ten years ago) link

i think it might work, but you would have to line the body too otherwise it would hang weird, no?

wouldn't it just be easier to get a couple of long sleeve t shirts?

caek, Tuesday, 21 January 2014 20:33 (ten years ago) link

i think if you just put in a super thin satin lining it wouldnt affect how it hangs v much, i dont really f w long sleeve tees idk

lag∞n, Tuesday, 21 January 2014 20:37 (ten years ago) link

tho maybe cotton would be better

lag∞n, Tuesday, 21 January 2014 20:37 (ten years ago) link

Warning u, my Lands' End one doesn't seem that scratchy on the outside and the sleeves are lined, but it still scratches bare arms thru the lining.

the whole point of shirt jackets is that you get to wear like fourteen shirts at once

Lamp, Tuesday, 21 January 2014 21:12 (ten years ago) link

like a little kid pretending to be fat in the 90s

Lamp, Tuesday, 21 January 2014 21:12 (ten years ago) link

the only rule is that one of the fourteen layers has to be a chambray oxford

actually thats one of the only two rules the other rule is that custard is delicious

damn let me write this down

yeah shirt jackets look best with a sub-collar

I'm so sad I'm reduced to the down puffy coat (even though mine is p nice) by this weather. I miss my shirt jacket.

that looks like a pendleton

the late great, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 19:15 (ten years ago) link

looks heavy for a board shirt and there's something weird with the collar, but yeah pendleton is it to first order

caek, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 19:26 (ten years ago) link

Hmm. I dug around on the net and found some ladies pendletons from the 60s with patterns sort of like that, but could not find something close to that for men

Burt Stuntin (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 20:05 (ten years ago) link

collar looks like it might have a rear button

Burt Stuntin (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 20:05 (ten years ago) link

something like this

the late great, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 20:11 (ten years ago) link

that's sort of it, but the squares appear to be larger and have a defined outline.

Burt Stuntin (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 20:12 (ten years ago) link

i don't think it will be too hard to find something like that with a little digging

the late great, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 20:15 (ten years ago) link

yeah woolrich's patterns seem closer

Burt Stuntin (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 20:16 (ten years ago) link

sleeves seem really short

the late great, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 20:25 (ten years ago) link

but yeah, you got the right idea

the late great, Tuesday, 28 January 2014 20:25 (ten years ago) link

I think the sleeves on that are not hemmed or something. They seem to be missing something.

It has chest pockets, but they're not very good for putting your hands in.

i own a shirt jacket without hand pockets and every time i wear it rediscover the idea of having a tailor put hand pockets in it

lag∞n, Friday, 1 October 2021 15:34 (two years ago) link

tho the shirt jacket depicted on aigle dot com is way on the shirt end of the shirt jacket spectrum so maybe you could wear it more like a shirt and it wouldnt be a problem

lag∞n, Friday, 1 October 2021 15:36 (two years ago) link

yeah. i ended up there because i wanted to show you guys an aigle SHACKET yes i said it again lag∞n that i actually have, which is really one of my most treasured things now. it's got the side pockets and it's slightly quilted. god it's the best. the only slight downside is that the quilting can feel a little COLD on bare arms if you're wearing it that way but i just steel myself for it because i know it'll pass in about half a minute.

thanks! the socks were a christmas present - my parents know i love socks - with a ridiculously cute conceit - they come in a pack of two, one adult size and one kid size for your kid awwwww.

the side seam pockets are very comfortable, in fact i forget they're there. i don't usually like to keep big stuff in there for very long but it's extremely handy in, say, sniffle season

Tracer Hand, Friday, 1 October 2021 16:48 (two years ago) link

it just seems like kind of far to reach back to put your hands in, tho i know its not a totally uncommon placement

yeah i guess you just get used to it. there is a stealth element that is not unpleasing

Tracer Hand, Friday, 1 October 2021 16:57 (two years ago) link

I like a slashed diagonal welted pocket myself but I acknowledge I'm particular. Or large patch pockets on the front, but that has something of an "art teacher/olde worlde craftperson" vibe. Which I'm also fine with.

Ima Gardener (in orbit), Friday, 1 October 2021 16:59 (two years ago) link

yeah i would prefer having some sort of further forward than the seam pocket were i to get my jacket altered, which im almost certainly not going to lol, but pockets on the seams seems like the easiest operation considering the jacket is all one fabric and theres not more of it

a few years ago my wife got me a stitchfix gift card thing as a birthday present. it was an interesting experience having clothes show up at my doorstep. they mostly look really good, but some of them revealed themselves to be shoddy quality over time (jeans esp). but i did get this nift shacket:

What one

woof, Saturday, 12 March 2022 11:27 (two years ago) link

I had this great garment I bought in the 2nd hand clothing shop in Clapham that was like a button down shirt at the collar and had a bottom that seemed a lot more like a jeans jacket, I don't think I've ever seen another like it. Have thought of trying to create something more like it. Think it was pretty light but that bottom was weird for a shirt. Including the side jacket waist adjustment tabs you get on the back of jeans jackets and a waist band strip so I don't think it would tuck into trousers easily. Fabric a lot more shirtish than external jacket .

Unfortunately it was in a bag that I lost while interailing in mid 85. So can't check to see if it had labels or anything, whether it was a mass made thing or more bespoke or smaller boutique level numbers of production.
