@Jed—Look no further than Schott, the original makers of the naval pea coat.

I really need a jacket like that, that is actually good quality where could I get one?

L.L. Bean is having a 20% off promotion on their website through Tuesday the 21st.

@Brad - I would assume he’s wearing the 6”-8” boot. (http://bit.ly/A3wXbo). Those seem to be the most popular boots. I do not think these ever go on sale.

Are these the boots (http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/22812?feat=506698-GN3&attrValue_0=Tan/Brown) this gentleman is wearing? When it’s summer, do you know if these boots go on sale? Or are they just too iconic?

@anon & Finn—GBallard is right, I graduated from Hardin-Simmons University (just as it has said on my Facebook account since 2007).

Since Fred is from Dallas, I’m assuming he went to SMU… SMU also has an undergraduate business program, so the Finance degree would make sense.

@Taylor & Finn—I graduated from a private school with a degree in Finance in 3.5 years.

Yeah, this is solid, and something I (and others) would actually wear.

@marsocho—I was simply referring to the brown color of his Bean Boots. These titles are simply for fun and are often tongue-in-cheek. Don’t over think them.

@marsocho. Perhaps FEC was referring to the fact the the boots are brown themselves.

A+ on the look. F on the play on words. african-american guy wearing beans = brown beans? or are you talking about the brownstone buildings? in any event, it’s not clear.

@Jed - I’m almost certain that the gentleman in the picture is wearing the Bayswater peacoat by J.Crew (http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Navigation/Sale/AllProducts/PRDOVR~87195/99101283816/ENE~1+2+3+22+4294967294+20~~~20+16+4294967201~15~~~~~~~/87195.jsp). The coat (regular or with Thinsulate lining) is currently on sale.
