Ventile? coat MK3

[topknot]

Hi ,
Going back a bit i found a roll of green cloth in a shop, well i pulled it out from the back to have a look, looks like Ventile but with a finish on the outside. For £6 per meter i brought myself some. (No p+p or cutting charge)

I sent some of the cloth to John fenna to see if he had come across it in the past.

This is the outcome , the coat is double lined on the shoulder and hood with the back of the arms reinforced, 2 zipped pockets on the chest , 2 buttoned pockets at the bottom and 1 pocket on each arm

Thank you for looking
All comments welcome
Cheers Topknot

That looks awesome! Where did you get the pattern? Love the shoulder/pocket design, got very similar thing on My Codet wool shirt/jacket. Works great in practise and looks neat too.

I had a think about it , but they are cheap to buy from Russia.

The pattern came from this photo , but i left out some of the stuff on the coat like the snow/wind lock inside the coat and i put buttoned closers on the end of the arms

Thank you all for the good comments and feed back on the coat
