You've had a few few threads about this before but i didn't want to go and ressurect old threads so I am making a new one.

Anyway Spike's coat, it's a very fine lambskin leather coat and I've been looking for it for some time, my current coat isn't much compared to it. Anyway I've just been searching on the net since I live far away from any leather stores or such(I live in Finland, out on the country side), I've been scanning Ebay and leather stores on the net and so far nothing, it's an extremely hard coat to find.

It's hard to find a coat with all the things spike's coat has combined, hardest of all to find is the extra long slit in the back, then the cuffs on the sleeves, then the design of the hem around the shoulders(not straight, but has a westerny cut, so to speak).

Spike's coat is also ankle length(well before it was redesigned for Angel but I'm interested in the buffy coat) and it's hard to find coats that long, we're probably talking 58" for me or more.

Also you can see his coat is actually too big for him, so for people looking for a coat should look for one a few sizes to large for them, I'd probably be looking at a 3XL coat then as I'm an L or XL normally.

Anyway I was hoping people here would have some tips or info regarding where I could find a good lookalike of this coat, or even just a brand name.
 
You could always try E-bay...they seem to have alot of Buffy look-alikes (clothes-wise) on there.

Hmm well a bit too rich for my blood...

Oh and tried ebay, been going through pretty much everything they got, nothing.

Also tried a few "goth" places since I know they like to walk around in long coats as well, nothing there either.

Time to hit the stores I suppose, still I'll keep checking ebay, and abbyshot(whats with the URL's?) is a custom clothiers place that are thinking about making this coat, if they get enough signatures on this online petition, you can except around $400-500 pricetag for that if they decide to make it.

I've also asked these other guys I've found on ebay offering reproductions of that nazi-assasins coat from hellboy if they'd contemplate a spike repro.
