Has anyone bought this?

this one

It is a bit pricey but looks lovely but I'm wondering what the fit is like. Reviewers say it is a bit big -anyone on here have one?

I have just ordered this from H and M. Actually think some of the boden colours a re bit garish as preferred the H and M one, well that and the fact it is significantly cheaper.

Hmmm..I saw that in H&M yesterday. It is very nice but it wasn't that great quality-wise - but I guess for £30 it's a bit much to expect it to be the same as a genuine tweed one...

I have a Boden one from about 5 years ago and I still wear it all the time. I wouldnt pay that for it though. Have you got a good discount code?

Well, I have a £50 credit on my account, so its almost like a discount, isn't it?! It does look like a jacket that will last decades (unless I get fatter)

TKNS was still working earlier this week if you want a code.

Your right Willpenn, the quality of the Boden one does look much better. I actually really like this one but its even more £££

But I can't justify spending that amount of a jacket, even if it is lovely and would last a lifetime (talknig myself into it...)

Theres actually a BNWT one on ebay for £85 in a 14 petite - if that would suit? ebay

People still ask where mine was from. It was probably the last thing I bought from Boden for myself. I have noticed they've stopped sending me the vouchers do they must've gone off me!!

Actually mine is longer than that. I think the one you like would be too short, for me. The Autumn trench looks nice.

WillPenn · 24/08/2012 13:53

Unfortunately the 14 wouldn't fit - I'm a 16R. Probably fortunately this means I'd never get into the Jack Wills one either, thougn it is very nice.
