    I think the Ben Sherman Men's Sculls Harrington navy Jacket might be a closer fit than the Barracuda G4. It can be found here:

    http://www.overstock.com/Clothing-Shoes/Ben-Sherman-Mens-Sculls-Harrington-Navy-Jacket/3156831/product.html

    They currently have small, medium and large sizes left. It is priced at 53.99. This is definitely more than the $35 for the warrior jacket from QOS on a budget, But I think it is a more accurate jacket. Also since Overstock.com sells surplus merchandise, there is no telling how long it might be on the website.

    I have to disagree. I've had two pairs of Samuel Windsor shoes, many years back. Both pairs were of a trully terrible quality. The soles lasted no time at all and the leather was particularly poor.

    I'd strongly urge anyone to stay well clear of Mr. Windsor and his cheap and nasty wares.

    I bought them because I couldn't reconcile myself to spending £300 for a pair of shoes. Once I got my head round the fact that I'd be spending that and more to keep my feel covered in Samuel Windsor for the next few years I bought the Churchs shoes.

    Put some money under the dresser until you can afford the real thing. Its more satisfying than buying a replacement.

    I second this, Samuel Windsor shoes are terrible. Bought 2 pairs for £60 (I should have seen this coming really), when they arrived, I took one look and back in their boxes they went. Posted them back the next day. Don't waste your time, you will only be dissapointed.

    James Bond: Yes... considerably.

    Okay, so during the scene where DC gets into the car with Olga's character, is the jacket he took Navy or Black? I keep hearing different oppinions.

    Also for the members in the US, I found another possible option for the motorcycle chase scene jacket at Kohls.com

    What do you think?

    I have the Warrior jacket, but the sleeves are wrong--they're elastic. The other one I found is a Chaps navy jacket on clearance at Belk. Great look and fit, but the wrong collar. The search continues...anxious to see what Magnoli comes up with.

    Was at Target last night and found another possible alternative to the 7 For All Mankind jeans: Converse One Star Slim Fit jeans. I haven't seen the 7s in person, but to me the fabric color of the Converse looks closer than the tidal blue Levis do, and the Converse even have the dark (though not blue) rivets and button; however, the fit of the Converse is nowhere near as good as the Levis (for me at least).

    The Baracuta online store is sold out of the G4. Aybody know any other retailers that carry it?
