[quote=Anonymous]I have a quilted jacket. It’s lightweight, just the right amount of warm, and will probably last a lot longer than the similarly styled Ralph Lauren jacket that it’s replacing because the Barbour is designed with longevity and utility in mind. I imagine that this is even more the case with the waxed coats. OP, if the features of the coats and jackets aren’t ones that you need, then you don’t really need to understand their appeal. I tend to buy things that work well for me with a reasonable cost per wearing — rather than fashion. That’s true of most of the people I know who’ve been buying brands like Barbour and Orvis for years. It really has nothing to do with what other people might think, and it’s pretty tacky to be mentally adding up the costs of someone else’s clothes, and even tackier to assume that other people have chosen their outfits based on what others might think.
