#429871 - 08/17/08 04:52 PM Gift for Admiral, Leather Coat, Help!!!
Parrott_head Admiral of Vice Admiral Registered: 01/26/03 Posts: 4209	Ok, The Admiral is having a birthday...don't even bother asking which one.... I would like to buy her a mid thigh length leather jacket. Lambskin or cowhide would be fine. Something classic that will last for years and stay in style. Think budget Burberry's (sp?). Does anybody, especially those of the fairer sex, on this board have any suggestions?

Parrott_head Admiral of Vice Admiral Registered: 01/26/03 Posts: 4209	Where to buy a quality jacket at a fair price. I do not want a budget one that in three years looks terrible. My MC jacket is over 23 years old and still looks fine. It was not a cheap one but was mid lined price.

Al Nautical Alchemy Admiral Registered: 01/14/03 Posts: 11513 Loc: Battle Creek/Grand Haven, MI	The Wilson's store in one of our local Malls recently closed. I don't know if that is a trend or just that particular Mall. One of the few pleasures I got out of being dragged to the Mall was to stop into the Wilson's store and smell the ambiance. But I see Wilson's has an on-line store. Think your admiral would like this jacket? _________________________ "Yesterday's Dreams" 1995 Carver 325 Aft Cabin Posts are amateur opinion only.

seadog Admiral Registered: 01/20/03 Posts: 3964 Loc: Stillwater, OK	I agree with Burlington coat factory. I have seen a lot of leather coats there. We have gotten coats for both my wife and mother there. My mother has an imitation fur that she loves. We got it for her birthday a couple years agao. _________________________ 03 Crestliner 2485 LSi 4.3 MPI 63 Newman 15' 01 Dakota Quad Cab 4.7L 08 Taurus

deepv Safety Officer Admiral Registered: 03/17/04 Posts: 6639 Loc: SoCal	I usually just pick something out knowing in all likelyhood, we'll be returning it later. But I've gotten pretty good at picking out the right stuff now. How about this one from Wilson's? _________________________ 72% of fatal boat accidents are caused by boaters that haven't taken a safe boating course. 2001 Sea Ray Sundeck 190 5.0 EFI Alpha I,Generation 2 2002 4x4 LB Lariat CC F250, 7.3PSD
