what size? I think they had another one.

They had this one for $50, then over time they reduce the price to 50% off. I used to go in there more, because they had a restaurant w/donated Boar's Head deli meat, good sammiches and salads, staffed by volunteers, all proceeds to help the poor. But they closed it due to rona.

not many feelings greater in life better than finding a superbuy like that, no matter what your station in life is.
If you ever come across an Orvis Denver coat at that place......that is my dream jacket, have craved one for many years. But $1800 has always placed it out of sound logical reach for me, for something I could only wear a few days a year in SC.
https://www.orvis.com/p/denver-ii-leather-jacket/2n75 Only two things really matter in a leather jacket: the fit and the leather. The Denver II nails both. With the length hovering around the belt line, a stand collar (to look cool or stay warm), and sleek lines, this jacket has game. But it's the lambskin leather that's the real star. Lightweight and supple, it wears like a dream. The full-grain, full-aniline leather has been drum dyed and slightly buffed. Then, using an old French artisan's method, special oils and waxes are applied. These finishing touches break down with wear, revealing a beautiful nubuck hand and rich undertones. Heavy-duty antiqued brass zipper, storm placket, two handwarmer pockets trimmed with Italian calf, one inside breast pocket, and one cell phone pocket. Bi-swing action back. Set-in sleeves with shirt cuffs. Color as shown. Shell: lambskin. Trim: calfskin. Body lining: polyester/acrylic/wool. Sleeve lining: acetate/cotton. Kicker: cotton/spandex. Professionally clean. Made in USA.

XL. For cold, crappy conditions, you can't beat what you got

My winter shitweather jacket is a Outback Trading Co. Pathfinder, when I have to be out tending to animals or farm chores when rational humans shouldn't be outside. Exterior much like the Orvis you just got, oilskin/waxed canvas. Warm, quilted, totally weatherproof. It's never let me down.
As for the Orvis - No way I'd wear a $2k jacket in bad weather if I had one, would be insane.  ">">

Was looking at Argyle ski jackets. Wasn’t going to pay $350 for it and about to move on. The sales lady said I have on over here with a imperfection that you can have for $75. I jumped all over that especially since it was orange.
It’s still serving me well. Been to Boise and many other games.
The imperfection was the zipper can hang up I at times.

that one, just not as long, for $25 when they had their annual yardsale at their warehouse in Fort Mill/ Charlotte (somewhere off 160). Used to get pants for $10 sometimes, but always weirdly sized. Even saw a warlord there once, shopping with his boy (RH Tig)
It is waxed canvas, game bag in the back, no leather collar though, and maybe more sportscoat length.

That back pocket can be used for FAR more than shoplifting.

Never minimize the opportunity to fill that back pocket with high explosives in your effort to get your insane sociopolitical manifesto recognized in the midst of a large public gathering.
