Janus Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 I like these for when I'm messing about outdoors in winter. I have one, but want to buy a couple more so that I can wear one while the other (s) is in the wash. I say that, but I don't know if they are still available. I looked on E bay and the results came up with jackets that seemed to be the size of bomber jackets, but there called Donkey jackets. I would be happy with second hand ones even.

PRESLEY Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 I've got a nice straight jacket if anybody wants it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wearysmith Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 One of my first passport photos has me wearing a donkey jacket with a turned up collar. I was also wearing a t-shirt, had a Midge Ure moustache (very popular at the time) and a Dave Lee Travis perm (also popular at the time). First time the beloved ever saw it was on our way to Greece on our honeymoon. She said "Christ!!! You look like an IRA terrorist! They're never going to let us in to Corfu.....". That photo would not have been allowed now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cressida Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Those are very expensive, £209 ? Go on ebay and type in donkey jacket (size) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janus Posted December 27, 2022 Author Share Posted December 27, 2022 Thank you for the replies. They are expensive now arn't they. Maybe they have become fashionable, who would have thought. I can imagine there were loads around in South Yorks back in the day. I 'think' they were standard issue for the coal miners. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
