Fancy looking like an extremely well turned out Norfolk field-hand? Course you do.
This here is a startlingly high-quality waxed cotton / wool-lined jerkin made by Carrier Company (basically the pre-eminent makers of this kind of archaic fashion/workwear stuff). Perfect if you're into Old Town, Labour & Wait, Nigel Cabourn, Breton smocks and all that jazz.
The quality is amazing but it's simply a bit too big for me. It's a medium, but these things are quite boxy as you're meant to be able to layer jumpers/jackets underneath.
The colour is olive green (very similar to your standard 'Barbour green') and the pure new wool lining is a natty brown/green mix.
New, it cost £178. I've worn it maybe twice since buying a couple of years ago (and it's been hung up in a wardrobe the whole time), so i'm after £130 (plus postage, or collection from southeast London. I'm happy to deliver in the area when the weather's not shite).
This is it new: https://www.carriercompany.co.uk/collections/mens/products/norfolk-jerkin

Got gifted a 100ml bottle of Tom Ford 'Fucking Fabulous' eau de parfum after a shoot at the magazine I work at.
Alas, i'm an Aesop guy, so any takers? The wrapping's been taken off (as it was for a product shoot) but it's otherwise completely new and unused.
100ml retails at £315 (!) on Selfridges. So £200 for this one?

Bump with a price drop to £120
