I have my grandfather's old RAF greatcoat...Its even seen combat in the Falklands skirmish. Wear it occasionally.

We stock long coats at work...They're a bit matrixy though.

I had a police coat when I was about 18/19/20 that I acquired. Someone gave it to me (bit of a criminal type) and he'd stolen it off a copper's back in a scuffle apparently. It's was a big coat so it must have been a big old cozzer it came off if the story is true

Loved that coat, unfortunately I eventually broke it.

This may come across wrong but it's meant with the utmost sincerity - I have seen countless full army/RAF winter coats in charity shops when looking for costumes/bits & bobs! and I never really see anything for more than £10 in most charity shops!

I certainly wouldn't pay for the pastiche high street copies when so many authentics can be found across charity and surplus shops across the country!
