If I was going to buy only one Royale filmwear item what do I get?

Always wanted one, unfortunately with current tariffs a lot of the jackets and outfits are $400+.

Spectre solden bomber, matchless jacket, or harrington?

Out of these three what would you guys choose?

    The Harrington (from QOS). I wear the heck out of mine and bought a spare so that I can swap it out in case anything happens to the first one. It looks great and wears beautifully. I get a ton of compliments on it when I'm out and about. Royale did a small run of cream colored ones and I have one of those that I occasionally wear as well.

    The QOS Haiti jacket is also excellent (modeled after the Adidas Y-3 jacket). It also looks and wears great.

    What sort of climate do you live in?

    If that was directed at me, I live in the state of Minnesota (USA). The Harrington is a fantastic Fall and Spring jacket and I get lot of use out of it.

    I must admit I've been thinking about one of those; it just looks a great handsome all-purpose jacket which doesn't draw too much attention to itself. I love the Morocco jacket and I think Craig looks great in it, but I feel like it might be a bit too 'I have a cool jacket on', if you know what I mean.

    be aware that the Harrington is a trim fit. If you're wavering between two sizes, go up...not down.

    +1 for the Harrington.

    I edit, therefore I am.

    I agree with the others, you really can’t go wrong with the Harrington. You’ll get plenty of wear out of it.

    that said though, I have almost every RF jacket and the one I wear most is definitely the Haiti jacket. It’s less ostentatious than the Harrington but the fit is superb.

    Thanks for the comments guys!

    right now I am torn between the Tom Ford solden bomber and Harrington. Just got two of the RGT jackets, medium and large love them. I do own a tan Harrington by a British company.

    I am in Texas, so typically October - March it drops to 30s-60s. Coldest it really gets. Past two years have been decent. I am one of those weirdos that will wear a jacket in the high 70s. Our summers can be in the 100s, so when we drop down to 70 with a lot of wind I wear jackets and bombers.

    The Harrington is brilliant for the amount of use you can get from it and always looks smart. The Morocco suede jacket is really nice too. Personally I'd go with whatever you're drawn to, they are all nice and great quality in my view. I've bought a couple of pretty much everything from RF and been really happy with them all

    Was lucky enough to find one on poshmark for only $200. Might have to get this tailored though

    That's a great price, how do you like the quality? The Matchless version is long in the arm, I'm sure a good tailor could sort easily enough. Great find!!
