Anyone else absolutely hate this trend?

I want to get a nice smart lasting jacket at the moment yet everywhere I've turned for the last few years has been this dreadful diamond-quilted rubbish.
 
haha yep, I went looking for a coat at the weekend, loads of quilted garbage and body warmers, I don't want to look like some posho from Marlborough (swindoners will know what I mean) thanks.
 
Was even worse about a month ago - was looking for a decent winter coat to replace an old faithful one and the selection was dreadful - though looking again now the new autumn/winter lines have come in its not quite so bad.

End up with a plain black coat from Urban Classics but not sure if it will perform as well as my old one.
 
I'm getting pretty fed up with fashion in general at the moment. It's all horrific trendy crap.

Where is a man who just wants to be plain and smart supposed to shop these days without being ripped off?

Welcome to two years ago.

And yes.

Have a look in the retailers. They're still going strong.

Where have you been looking out of interest? I'm tempted to give up and just get a new waterproof from go-outdoors or something, but I actually would like a smart coat.

Mainly source my stuff from Burtons (sadly not a patch on what they used to be), M&S, House of Fraser and Amazon.

Zara sell some pretty nice smart coats. They have the usual guff too, but less so than most places I find.
