That one looks a lot nicer than the NBHD x adidas Peacoat end have got in. It's seriously tempting but I'd have to check it in the flesh first I reckon. Anyone know some UK stores that'll have some stock?

Only ASOS and maybe the OG stores in the UK I think fella

That is a fine coat, bit rich for me at that price, but a fine coat nonetheless.
I bought a nice wool coat last winter so unless they about quartered the price it ain't gonna happen. . .
Be worth checking the outlets in a few months though, a lot of the very expensive adidas gear ends up sold a lot cheaper . . . not sure how limited this coat is though?

The DB peacoat is CDN499 and the NBHD peacoat is CDN700. I tried the NBHD coat on and it's nice, but a little too 'trendy' so you'd probably be well sick of it/embarrassed to wear it after a couple of years.

It just doesn't work for me, a sportwear company making dress coats and knitwear etc. It's like if Hugo Boss started making trainers and "streetwear" it'd suck hard. This is the same to principle to me. adidas should concentrate on getting their mind right when it comes to their bread and butter instead of fuckin around pretending to be Louis Vuitton with this bullshizzle

I half agree, I quite like that they are making outerwear, but my main problem is that adidas originals is a fun energetic brand, and the DB range looks quite boring & old... and theres no real branding on it, most of the items look like run of the mill clothing with a small adidas label sewn on
