Been seeing a few people post about their actual browncoats lately and it finally spurred me into buying one for myself. I bought the one from sportsmansguide for $60. Not a bad coat for that price. The color is a little lighter than I expected but it is brown, not to be confused with tan or beige. My only mistake was I ordered it maybe one size too big. Since it is made of cotton I'm thinking there will be some shrinkage upon the first washing so it should turn out okay.

That's good to hear because I also ordered one from that site a while back (haven't got it yet, had to order through a friend as that site doesn't do international shipping - and they've just posted it over to me, so just a matter of time now...). So I guess I'm being greedy because that'll give me two Browncoats (lol) but one is my smart suede one that I got for my birthday - and this one (from the sportsmanguide) I plan to modify (well, have modified - I'm hopless at such things) and maybe get some of those cool Firefly patches for it.

- Shiny. Let's be bad guys.
