These Two Guys Not Helping the Black Shirt Cause

Michael Kors Sucks; Spiewak Not So Much

Spiewak Dugan Peacoat via Evo, $159.00 — Spiewak Dugan Peacoat via Evo. $159.00.

As regular readers know, this season we've been on the hunt for the perfect peacoat, ordering about 8 or 9 of them, and they've all been returned.

Now you're OK'd to go kick some terrorist ass.

Michael Kors Wool Peacoat via Neiman Marcus, $495.00 — Michael Kors Wool Peacoat via Neiman Marcus. $495.00.

We'd written off Michael Kors for good after his douchebag-r-riffic Project Runway performance, (and the fact that he actually designed this shirt), but we're considering letting him back into our brand universe if he continues making clothes like this: a contender for Perfect Peacoat.
