Oul fella coat. If it doesn’t smell of must or piss you’ve been had.
Herringbone..
Ok. The cut is diff maybe cuz it’s handwoven. Mine fits snug and still has the baggy shoulders. There is no cut from shoulder to sleeve. It is one piece of fabric.
All mine says is handwoven in Galway
Herringbone
Overcoat
Vintage Burberry Irish tweed coat
Its a driving coat or a car coat
I call that a grandfather coat because my grandfather had one.
Sex offender coat
Flashers overcoat.
I don’t know but I always called it “da’s coat” since my grandad always wore it xD
Badly fitting?
I feel you should be on your way to give Mick Collins some info
Local sex pest jacket
That fella looks like he hasn’t been well, that coats hanging on him.
That is a (very large) herringbone pattern balmacaan
At least I think, never was entirely clear on what a balmacaan is. I’m pretty sure this is one though
A Greatcoat
Fartin’ Jacket
Probably made by Magee in Donegal Tweed for Burberry. Burberry uses many suppliers. It has raglan sleeves, which give it a relaxed sporty look. Raglan sleeves were also favoured by Burberry for their raincoats since they sit well over jackets and have better water-resistance.
I wouldn’t pay $350 unless I could try it on and inspect for stains/abrasions/smells. Also many owners of such coats had the sleeve lengths altered, and previous generations tended to have shorter arms. Nothing is worse in sartorial terms than an overcoat that’s too short in the sleeves.

This style can definitely look great, but I imagine it’a a more European look than American. A good quality ‘fashion’ version is currently available for around $1,200 from [Private White VC](https://www.privatewhitevc.com/products/the-permanent-style-herringbone-donegal-overcoat?utm_term=&utm_campaign=&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_acc=5891097748&hsa_cam=16585845103&hsa_grp=&hsa_ad=&hsa_src=x&hsa_tgt=&hsa_kw=&hsa_mt=&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gclid=Cj0KCQiAiJSeBhCCARIsAHnAzT-_dBE7tUa6V3WhKU7lXCN4OsFH3kFmFsrXgPHI1hFGYwZBXrwamuAaArzJEALw_wcB)
Could be referred to as a “Great Coat”, although this one looks a little shabby
I can smell the naphthalene only by looking at this pic

It’s a greatcoat in herringbone tweed. The lining is Gordon clan dress tartan.
That’s the big coat
