First of all this is a great shop, fast delivery and never had any problems with them. Secondly, does anyone know how large these S, M, L sizes are? I'm seeking to buy a size 50, but is that Medium or Large or what?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Virginiasc]

Not sure if this helps, I know all brands have, different sizing, but I have a coat and a shirt that are both size forties from two different places and they both fit like a medium. So I think 50 would be a large.

Holy shit...thanks for posting this. Do they send stuff to the U.S.???

[london callum]

A European size 50 is a 40" in England. I'm a 40" chest and I wear a large.

[Dutch Raven]

That's pretty cheap.

I was eyeballing this one: http://www.ekmpowershop6.com/ekmps/shops/modclothin/merc-overcoat-147-p.asp
And this one: http://www.ekmpowershop6.com/ekmps/shops/modclothin/modclothin-crombie-382-p.asp

120 euro is way better than 150 pound!!! Allthough I really like the honey coloured MERC one...

[RuneDK]

Thanks for the replies! I ordered a size L, so I hope it'll fit.

[a6skin9]

Thanks for the replies! I ordered a size L, so I hope it'll fit.

Would really like to know the quality of the jacket. Please let us know how it measures up when you get it.

yes please leave feed back.

how big are you?

[RuneDK]

yes please leave feed back.

how big are you?

I'm 1,80m and weigh round 75-78kg. Usually just between a size medium and large(mostly large) in jackets and such.

[Dutch Raven]

I'm 1.80 and a little heavier than you are, but I always need an L to XL...

[london callum]

You lot must wear your clothes ridiculously long. I'm 6 foot 6 (about 2m) and 15 stone (about 95kg) and I'm a large.

[Dutch Raven]

Hahaha, not at all. You and Rune must be skinny, I'm not. :p

[GripFast]

so for us septics thats about 5'9" 165 lbs

i pictured you as being a big guy

im 6'1" (6'2" with boots) 220give or take 5lbs

sounds like im going to need an extra large

[Dutch Raven]

For all you UK folks, this seems to be more or less the same one: http://cgi.ebay.nl/VINTAGE-CLASSIC-CROMBIE-STYLE-WOOL-OVERCOAT-NEW-MOD-L_W0QQitemZ200169614004QQihZ010QQcategoryZ313QQcmd ZViewItem

I've been looking for a decent crombie for a while. This is what I've found, from cheapest to most expensive:

http://www.jumpthegun.co.uk/ (online shop -> coats -> overcoat)

Never mind: Merc it will be.

[london callum]

Jump the Gun will be the best quality by far. The one on ebay I don't like. The lapels are too low. I'd get the modclothin one if I was you. I'm tempted to get a dogtooth or prince of wales check one with some money I've been saving. It's that or get a tonic harrington made from http://www.trimfituk.co.uk/ (http://www.trimfit.co.uk)

[Dutch Raven]

I think the eBay one is the same as the one Rune posted.

The one from Jump The Gun looks good, but I guess the waist is a bit too tight.

Wich one from ModClothin' do you mean? The Merc one or the one they made themselves? If it was for the lining, I would go with the Merc one.
This is the dogtooth one:

http://www.adaptorclothing.com/p-3739-merc-london-harrington-jacket-navy.aspx

Too fucking bad I can't find the Ben Sherman crombie with blue lining I found on the net anymore.

[london callum]

Ain't a fan of merc harringtons. I think they're too baggy.

I was talking about the one they made themselves but now you mention it the lining does look a bit shit.

[EvilMel]

Guys this is the coat I used to own that was a slightly different style crombie:
http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-CLASSIC-CROMBIE-STYLE-WOOL-OVERCOAT-NEW-MOD-S_W0QQitemZ200169613753QQihZ010QQcategoryZ313QQrdZ 1QQssPageNameZWD2VQQcmdZViewItem

I was totally ecstatic when I saw it on ebay, but then I realized it's way too big. 22" chest would be HUGE on me...dammit.

It's a shaaaaarp looking coat though. That collar really looks awesome with a scarf knotted and tucked in. Super sharp.

thats fuckin sharp love

[EvilMel]

thats fuckin sharp love
Yeah I KNOW!!!

I used to wear that coat back in like 1996 through to a few years ago. It was super old though (given to me secondhand by a boyfriend) and it got so ratty I threw it out. I have been kicking myself ever since.

After a few years of looking, I now find the fucker on ebay and the smallest one has a 40" chest? My old one was a 38. uuugh. I'm thinking of buying it anyways and just wearing it a little big. But the damn thing is 22" pit to pit. That's HUGE!

this one looks very nice! nice deal...probably buying one next month when my paycheck arrives but damn they're expensive

[GripFast]

i just bought a crombielike coat at goodwill (thriftshop) for 10 and change.

its not the sexiest crombie knock off ever but for 10 bucks its pretty cool.

ill post a pic later

[london callum]

I still don't like the ebay one. The lapels are too low.

[EvilMel]

The low lapels are one thing I really love about it and why I say it looks fucking awesome with a scarf.

Neat neat neat...but it's cool. I wouldn't want everyone sporting that coat I love a bunch anyways! hah hah

[RuneDK]

I recieved my crombie this friday. The quality seems to be great. It looks totally sharp and it's nice and warm.

I got a Large and to compare, I usually use size 42 in shirts, Large i sweatshirts and so on. It fits perfectly if I'm wearing a tshirt, a sweatshirt or even a suit. So I'm very happy with the coat.

[a6skin9]

Thanks for letting us know how you like it. I ordered one from Merc yesterday and can't wait for it to arrive. I will post an opinion of it when it gets here.

[Dutch Raven]

Did you get if off the Merc site itself?

Please post pictures too!

Fuck all with the trad style..if young guys want it then best to them..i'm wearing doc shoes,Levis,a worn out t-shirt & that's about it..as a matter of fact,i'm in 20 years now..skinhead is without a doubt a matter of mentality,those who have been skins for years know what i mean..looking 'authentic' for a year means all shit...

My problem with the \"trad\" style is the cost. I can buy a pair of jeans and a few tee shirts for the same price as one Ben Sherman.

Or get a job... ;)

[Dutch Raven]

Rune, don't you know how the dollar is doing at the moment?

But seriously: what the fuck is wrong with wearing a damn crombie? Is wearing a Ben Sherman also traditional and for hard-mods?

[Virginiasc]

I got ONE Fred at TJ Maxx before, but it was still about 25 bucks. I would love to be able to afford a Crombie (and yes, i do have a job) but I\'m no tgoing to blow my paycheck on a coat. Besides,I got a great Harrington my dad picked up in London about 10 yrs ago that doesn\'t fit him anymore.

hah hah...man...seriously...every skinhead guy I know scrutinizes what he wears out. I don't mean that they look super fucking trad like with the Spirit of '69 shoved up their asses...BUT...I do mean that they will sit there and really put deep thought into what to wear for an evening out. I think we're all a bunch of fashion whores if you want to know the truth.

I'm not talking about freshies either...we've only got a couple of those in our group here. I'm talking about people who have been into it for 15-20 years...STILL scrutinizing what they wear! hah hah.

All I want is a friggin' wool coat that looks like my old crombie I used to have.

[a6skin9]

I just picked up a Crombie at H&M on sale for $70.00 this afternoon. I didn't even know that we had H&M in the states. Let me tell you I was pretty fucking surprised when I saw em on the rack. I just ordered one from Warrior (not Merc like I said, got confused) last week.

Did you get any of this while you were there?

http://www.skinheads.net/forums/showthread.php?t=15904&highlight=high+fashion

[Dutch Raven]

So, now you have 2?

And I've seen the one from H&M (I think). Looks OK.

[a6skin9]

Boy if only!! No I didn't see anything like that at the store. Actually had some pretty nice stuff, lots of slim fit shirts, trousers and suits. The crombie is very nice looking with the ticket pocket, looks just like the one from Merc. They had black and a very dark grayish herringbone twill. So yeah now I have two of em when the one from Warrior shows up.

120 euro is way better than 150 pound!!! Allthough I really like the honey coloured MERC one...

How much is that US$?

[Dutch Raven]

What? 120 euro? 150 pound?

Google can convert it pretty good for you. Just go to google and type something in like '120euro to dollar'.

[RomanSkin84]

Thanks, thats about $170.. not bad

[RomanSkin84]

Are knightsbridge harringtons any good? they're going for 19 Euro which seems really cheap

[Dutch Raven]

I believe they're OK. Most of the cheaper harringtons are made with rougher fabric than the expensive ones.

So I meant to ask, does Cash & Carry deliver to Canada, they got some nice stuff, the google translator is kind of shitty and I can only make out words here there

[Dutch Raven]

E-mail them. And I would be happy to translate for you.

C&C isn't the only shop that has that crombie btw.
