Wanted: Budget Spectre solden jacket alternative

Dutchie1312

I am looking for a cheaper version of the (tom ford?) Solden jacket in Spectre. With the same color and style in size S/M depends on the brand.

Already found the Super Natural combustion jacket but the sleeves are too long and it doesnt really fit like the jacket in the trailer does.

Thanks!

Not particularly "budget", but you can get the new season Moncler jacket that TF likely used as a blueprint. Unlike the original, this seasons version has the down texture wrapped around the neck too.

Though not cheap, still likely half the price of the TF version.

I think that lots of similar styles will pop up...when it isn't summer anymore ;-)

I'm thinking we'll see a lot of suede jackets in high end shops in the fall as that's supposed to be an "on-trend" item this year. I wouldn't be surprised if we also saw a lot of jackets similar to the "Solden jacket". The thing I'm wondering is, how warm can sleeves of knit material be? And if they aren't lined, how difficult is it to pull them over sleeves of a knit sweater? Very friction-y it would seem...

I know you mentioned the one linked below, but for those that own it, is the fit that off?

I had originally ordered a large but had to send it back because it was too tightI had originally ordered a large but had to send it back because it was too tight. I received the extra large and fits much better however it seems a little long in the waist. hope this helps.

Good point, but keep in mind this jacket is, I believe, listed as a mid-layer. So if you were to actually wear it skiing you'd still have the base layer and a jacket outer layer. The "friction-y" aspect of the jacket occurred to me, too. The unlined sleeves of the Billy Reid peacoat were a sticking point (no pun intended) with me for that reason.

I have one on its way and will report on it when it arrives.

Anyone interested in the super.natural Combustion Cloud Jacket 340 may want to consider signing up for the STP newsletter. There are new deal flyer exclusive promos a few times a week. I got the jacket for 40% off with free shipping.

I've got a size small of the Super.natural combustion jacket in the black caviar colour available if anybody is interested. Size small though and fits snug. If your interested PM me and I'll get back to you with the measurements you require. I'm looking for £60 plus shipment. UK based but willing to ship abroad at buyers expense.

I don't find the fit too far off on the combustion jacket. The sleeves bunch slightly at the wrist but I find that helpful when you are moving around or wearing gloves.

I purchased the combustion jacket last February. It is a perfect transition jacket (New Jersey Winter/Spring). I highly recommend it.

My alternative is sold! Sorry to anyone who's has been let down. However I've found a lead on eBay who seems to stock them in different sizes. Worth dropping him a message regarding your requirements

Link to a size medium (other sizes available on his account):

Hope this helps those looking for a super.natural combustion jacket -{

I'm expecting mine to arrive today. Will let you know how the XL fits as I'm 6'4" and 230 lbs.

EDIT: It just arrived. It's snug but I believe an XXL would be too long in the sleeves and too loose around the waist. It fits true to size.

With the discounts applied, shipped to Canada was only $139.

MrSwinderman

Yes. My large fit the same way. I also felt going a size up would make the sleeves too long.

Just ordered the Sierra Trading jacket for $102 shipped. Nice -{

My Large arrived today. Wore it for only a minute because it's bloody hot here. Slim fit but not tight. The arms are fine for me, but then my arms are 26" from shoulder joint to wrist. Only slight bunching of the fabric. I think I'll be keeping it, although STP does have a year long return period.

Arbogast 777

Just got my Sierra Trading jacket. VERY pleased. High quality and would be a steal at twice the price. 5'10" 185lbs and a large fits great - slim fitting but not tight - arms are perfect. Now if we can get some fall weather I could actually wear it!

Price drop with coupon code is $79.96. Coupon codes are easily available via Google search.

As mentioned above, it is size accurate but more correctly "slim fit size accurate". I moved up 1 size for personal comfort.

Hope this helps.

They are plugging these jackets in a bunch of threads on here, just beware everyone!

armenianmovieman

People seem to agree with me on this one so here is a $175 navy alternative from Banana Republic (unfortunately it seems the BRFRIDAY coupon code will not work on this item for 40% off but perhaps you may call customer service?)
