Houndstooth, YESSSSSSSSS.

http://www.landsend.com/pp/mens-wool-shirt-jacket~245156_-1.html

nice!

that is the cut i am looking for

Let's buy the same jacket.

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.

i got mine via a tip from max iirc

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

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

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

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

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

and i will no doubt rue the lack of hip pockets

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

otm

the norse projects hip pockets are exactly 1 kindle in size

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

looolxp

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

otm. sorry your shirt jacket bore the brunt!

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

yeah i got a navy one like that by woolrich wm

CPO or cruiser jacket, right?

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

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

shirt jackets still on my mind.

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

ha i started dating a fashion designer and she has lined it with moleskin and it is good for another 2+ yrs i think.

classy braggin'

shirt jackets are good. i have a corduroy one that i wear in the fall and it makes me feel very rugged.

just got this on deep sale

very smart!

i ponder these sometimes but they all look somewhat contrived on me

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.

how badly does one need a yellow shirt jacket

http://www.oipolloi.com/norse-projects-jens-melton-shirt-dusty-yellow

That's patent leather, right?

Excited to remember that I have a shirt jacket to wear once it stops being 80 degrees!

shit jackets!

what's new in shirt jackets?

jumpsuits are p in rn

please show us the shacket

well i can't find a picture of it anywhere

ok i'll put the damn thing on

nice jacket, fits you perfectly

IT'S A SHACKET

but thank u

lol, is having the pockets on side seam comfortable, i ask in service of my hypothetical shirt jacket alteration

nice socks too tracer. you stylin

I've long pondered whether I could pull off a Wax London overshirt

https://waxlondon.com/collections/overshirts

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

xpost

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

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.

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

its a nice jacket but its unlined wool which is scratchy also i own many light jackets sweatshirts fleeces and various things to keep me warm in the cold but not that cold weather

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:

love it, and this is the perfect season. wearing it almost daily

that looks pretty sweet. i guess those are the pockets of your dreams cr?m?

That's sooo good. And Tracer, yours too! Top shacket marks for secured top pockets, open side pockets for standing around with your hands in.

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.

from my parents lol

trying quite hard to remember the brand.. hmm

yeah great pockets for hands. there has been a guitar pick in one of the chest pockets for like the last two years and i always forget it's there. when i notice it it makes the shacket feel that much cooler

nice pockets for sure

Drinkin coffee, checkin emails, wearin a shacket with the collar up, in a room with the windows open to the grey fall day.

just checking in. wearing a shirt as a jacket today.

(admittedly not a shirt jacket.)

Timely. Thinking about overshirts & shackets today.

Looking at the Wax Whiting, as mentioned by Moodles upthread:

https://waxlondon.com/products/whiting-overshirt-marine-beatnik

(no handpockets so feels slightly off-thread, though I wear heavy shirts as jackets plenty)

or a Form&thread atelier in ink, a purer shacket

https://formandthread.com/products/canvas-atelier-overshirt?color=Ink

I'm very close to going in on the Navy/Grey Plaid one, was literally just checking these out again

Would love this Todd Snyder chore coat.

I bought three fairly cheap ones from TK Maxx in blue, brown and white. Wear them all the time, sometimes with a roll neck sweater underneath although I'd like to find a better one than the one I already have

Currently wearing something very similar to that Todd Snyder chore coat that cost £15 from Uniqlo.

currently wearing a Balenciaga “garbage shovelling shirt” in tulle

Haha yeah it does make me feel a bit sick in my mouth when I see a £350 shacket described as a "chore jacket" or whatever

My look for the winter. My hand is in the way but I'm wearing a cheap H&M roll neck which I plan to upgrade at some point to a nicer fit and colour

I’m anti-camo in general and the price is steep, but this Cubist camo shirt jacket is kind of cool.

(From Carhartt WIP)

i am wearing a shirt jacket.

What one

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.
