Let's not forget a fashionable bowler hat for walking outside.

To me a smoking jacket is just a jacket that you wear whenever you smoke. The one I use is corduroy with a fleece liner that my wife got me one year. I think she spent $50 on it. I use to wear it out all the time and then it ended up with a tiny hole in it. Now when I smoke outside, I wear it. It is very warm.

Bottom line, In my opinion is that you don't need to go out and buy a special "smoking jacket". To me that is something the filthy rich would own. Like the one link that had them for $998, freaking ridiculous. Just get a comfortable jacket and designate it your smoking jacket. So much easier.

I'm a size 50 jacket, and I have been looking for a smoking jacket for years. Vintage sizes that big are rare. I drool over the ninedeep ones and will probably break down and order one at some point, but I bought this one last month and it is perfect. It is not too light or heavy, the classic design and seems like it will wear for a long time. I am not associated with the vendor in anyway, but it is so damn hard to find this thing I thought I should share.

My idea of a smoking jacket is just a straight vinatge blazer like mentioned throughout this thread. You all have me wanting to purchase one now, so I guess I'll be hitting up the Goodwill on the way home now!

I want one now as well. A CA smoking jacket would be sweet.

Product not found at the link. What is the description so we can see it on the site?

the MacDonald · 12-09-2010, 09:00 AM

The link works now. I saw that it didnt work last night, but didnt have time to respond, and today it is up.

DocLogic,
great history lesson. Thanks!

Also, there is a guy at the local lounge that wears a snuggie!!!
I guess it is functional for the warmth and keeping the clothing smell to a minimum.

Snuggies are a scam. It's a bathrobe worn backwards. Not the desired look either.

Jasonw560 · 08-13-2011, 03:01 PM

Bump for the fezes.

who woulda thunk it Tom?

Jasonw560 · 08-13-2011, 03:34 PM

I do what I can. Had there not been mention of the all-powerful Fez, I wouldn't have bumped it.

Who can resist the all-powerful Fez?

All I can say is, "Wow."

I think I still have a couple of Dad's maroon silk robes from the 70s that would work for a Hef style smoking jacket. If any of you gents want a slightly moth-eaten cool vintage jacket I'll take $750.00 for the pair.

You might be mistaken for one of the three wisemen, however.
