[QUOTE="Dreadgerbil, post: 205169, member: 2219"] For a full Norfolk that's decent quality, you'll be paying a lot of money and will likely have to order it from a specialist tailor. You can get knock offs on ebay and through a few online clothing retailers but they won't fit as well nor hold up as well. If you go to [url=http://www.harristweedshop.com/jacket-norfolk.html]http://www.harristweedshop.com/jacket-norfolk.html[/url] you can get their version of it which is good and , in my opinion, worth the money. (But then, I'm a Scot so I would say that.) Also, try searching for 'Vintage Shooting Jacket Tweet' and similar things on Ebay. You may get lucky. Bear in mind, it is very bad form to get a shooting jacket that is obviously new and in good repair that has leather patches on it. The leather patches you see on many shooting jackets come from the fact that they were worn so much that those areas got worn down. If you're seen by 'those in the know' wearing a new jacket that has leather patches on it you'll be seen as something of a poseur. [/QUOTE]
