Would you wear a Burberry quilted jacket?

Sure! After being a fan of their trench coats for many years, I finally got the fernleigh quilted jacket in burgundy just this summer. I think it has a slightly more updated look. So excited to be wearing it now in the fall and I alternate it with my short honey Kensington.

Never bought one. But I wore Burberry classic trenches for years when no one else did. And, I bought an etro quilted jacket instead (which was a less boxy cut and fit me better).another option, more functional, less fashion, is Barbour

Yes, I have a Barbour more fitted utility jacked which I really love for the rustic look.

I’m trying to decide between the Burberry Kencott and Copford styles. Does anyone have feedback regarding which is warmer? The Copford is similar to the Ashurst sold at the outlets.

I had the Copford and now own the Starkford (similar fabric as Kencott). Copford is warmer... it's lined in a weave-like fabric (the kind that pills) whereas the inside of Kencott is the same cool-feeling poly as the outside of the jacket. Someone let me know if I'm wrong though since I've never owned the Kencott specifically... just assuming based on what I've seen in photos.

Yes. I have a black (Copford I believe) that I purchased 2+ years ago that I wear all the time. I wanted to add a Frankby in a color, but it seems to have been discontinued?

Also, it seems like Burberry has had a significant price increase since I last purchased. They appears to be going for $750 now.....that's more than I'm willing to pay. Hoping to find one at the Burberry Outlet next time I visit.

I bought a Burberry quilted jacket a few years ago, but I realized that I haven't worn it in ages. I can't get past this feeling that it is out of style (even thought it is a classic piece). I also rarely, if ever, see someone wearing one. Is anyone here buying or still wearing their quilted jackets? Does anyone else think it's out of style?

I think quilted has made a comeback in recent years. But maybe that's just wishful thinking because I just bought a vintage Kencott by Burberry BRIT, and a Barbour quilted in Aubergine because I love color in my wardrobe!!. I wish it was easier to find Burberry in colors..!

i think this jacket style is very nice outside of the coldest months of the year. I don’t think it’s out of style but the fit is not great for me and the sleeves are so long they have to be rolled up and I don’t like that look. It’s very difficult to alter as well. I just bought the Fernleigh and will probably have to return due to the big gap in the sizing between S and M. Neither really works for me. Maybe I’ll check out Barbour!

I ordered this jacket in size S (5"8' and 125 pounds) and it works well with layer of sweater under. Not super chunky sweater but still a sweater or turtleneck. I just wore it today to walk my kid to school. It was 28°F so about -2°C I had a short sleeve plus thin turtleneck under and I was plenty warm. It actually worked better than my north face thermoball I think because of the overlapping front (buttons) instead of zipper. Anyway I'm very happy about it, I think the new style looks good (not as boxy as older styles) although it could still be a tad more fitted in waist :smile: also sleeves are perfect for me considering that most sleeves on the jackets are too short on me. Again I'm 5"8'

You’re taller and a little slimmer than me. I’m 5’6” 123 lbs and I have athletic shoulders. The small is too tight buttoned and the sleeves are too long on the S and M -I hate showing the plaid if rolled up. The M seems too long-waisted and is pretty shapeless in the back though the front fits better. It could work with layers underneath but that’s not what I need it for. I had the cheaper version Burberry Brit years ago in fuchsia and the XS fit perfectly and I’ve always weighed the same - disappointed in the sizing now.
