QOS Budget Harrington

The Bond Experience

Yes...another one...but this one is particularly good because of the little details...good collar, good back line, good cuffs, AND good deep midnight navy color....and the price. Can't beat it. Lands End Canvas is more fitted than traditional Lands End so FYI...oh, and check out their navy MESH polo for a potential Sunspel alternative sans pocket.....

I don't think they ship internationally.

And they strangely don't have that on the UK website either.

I think we need a middle-man. -{

It looks almost perfect, except the back, which turns me off a little bit. And they don't have smaller than Large

The Bond Experience

WOW, when I saw this last night they had smalls and mediums...going fast!!!

J.Bauer

I got one of these a few weeks back. They fit a little large, and I had to take the elastic out of the back, but I love it. It looks great with their navy blue jersey polo.

Damn, no smalls!

Can people here please tell me what they think of the Magnoli copy of the Harrington jacket from QoS?

Pretty close to the TF, but I think the collar isn't exactly right. The material may be slightly different too.

i got a jacket from a banana republic, it seems to be a lighter weight than the one in the movie but it looks close and was only $65 on clearence

jz007

The Magnoli looks gorgeous. This LE jacket that The Mantis has posted is great because of the COLOR, and is disappearing right before our eyes! If it came in small, I'd get it and change out the zipper!

This is the one I have - they shipped Internationally for me (last summer).

if you need close up pics of any details let me know.

For the price it really is a fantastic jacket.

Just ordered this polo in "True Navy":

Though it has a 3-button placket, the pocket and color (and the sale price) clinched it for me. I did, however, notice a difference in color on another shirt. Look:

Can anyone confirm which "True Navy" is the right one? I'm hoping for the darker one, as the lighter one is the same color I just got from JCPenney (on my "Polos on a budget" thread).

Lands' End Canvas has another model of navy blue harrington jacket available, in sizes Small to Extra Large, & also on sale for only $35: http://canvas.landsend.com/pp/HarringtonJacket~219428_-1.html?bcc=y&action=order_more&sku_0=::TVY&CM_MERCH=canvas-search-_-harrington

I personally - don't like the elastic ribbing on waist and sleeves, makes it less authentic to Bonds

jz007

I thought the zipper looked pretty chintzy, too. But a low price. I thought with fall coming, we'd see more jackets online. Not so. My wife threatened to buy me the Magnoli jacket if I keep looking at it.

Plant a folder of photos of the Magnoli for her to find. Maybe even stamp it classified. That will seal the deal on a surprising and unexpected gift.

Yeah I can't find much either.

Not a harrington , but I'm thinking something like this will be a decent alternative. http://www.dickies.com/product/product_detail.jsp?FOLDER%3A%3Afolder_id=2534374302025366&PRODUCT%3A%3Aprd_parent_id=2534374302024573&PRODUCT%3A%3Aprd_id=845524441761331

An outside the box alternative. Not quite as stylish. I've had a couple before and they are durable. Comes in black or navy blue. Lined or unlined. I'd remove the logo too. In a way i like being screen inaccurate. Putting my own twist on things. Might not be good enough for some, but the price is right.

drum007

I've got the Lands End. Seems to be a regular item every season and the price is right. I've gotten compliments on it too!

One of the reviews says the Blue is not as dark as the website images. What do you think?

drum007

Mine is pretty dark. Definitely a midnight blue. Mine was the model before the "canvas" line. Same one David is wearing in this video at 5:20

Cool. Thanks for the video, i haven't seen it before.

Mr Beech

Is this pretty much the same one?

Aston Martin DBS

Went into a thrift/charity shop yesterday and managed to get this Harrington Jacket for a babrgain £8.99.

I think the photo's make it look a little more blue than it looks in 'real' life and I don't know if it's the one Mantis was talking about at the begining of the thread here,but to me it looks accurate enough. Now I need some new jeans to go with it. Guess with my waistline about to expand over Christmas Better to wait until the New Year!

EDIT

Realise it might be good to include the photo's

toutbrun

To me, the Baracuta G9 is the way to go.

Hi,
In case anyone is still on the lookout for a budget alternative to the TF, here is a pretty good match from Eddie Bauer: the material is a little heavier than the Land's End, it has no elastic at the cuff, and minimal elastic at the waist, and at $89 it's a pretty good deal. Only downsides are the duck motif lining, but that can be changed out pretty easily, and the duck icon on the chest:

Good alternative. I've always liked Eddie Bauer's quality too.

I did get my khaki Lands End for Christmas. Very nice. A tough heavy twill weave and it has a nice light blue lining. It also has inside pockets for your wallet, cellphone, Ipod, lockpick set, throwing knfe, silencer, spare magazine, car keys, garrotte, and...well you get my point, whatever you want to carry.
