I thought about this the other day. When I take the younglings out for Halloween this year, thought I'd dress like one, but thus far, not much luck in finding a good one.

I have recently acquired a magnificent Tristan-made browncoat... it's totally FABULOUS.

Where? An auction? A garage sale? A store? If a store, which one? Inquiring minds want to know :D

Starting at USD $534 CAD $550. YIKES!!! I guess so. That's a little more than I want to spend for a Halloween costume - LOL.

Whip,

Here is the thread where Tristan first announced the making of Browncoats.

http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=13&t=22196

It should contain all the info you need to get one from him.
He's an excellent costumer and an amazing guy.

Well said, FollowMal!! I just saw this thread title and I immediately thought of Tristan. He's a wonderful example of the Browncoat community, and a good dinner coversationalist as well. If you ever get to Anniston, AL., look him up and buy him a meal at Top O' the River.

So who is he?
He's my husband.
Well who in the damn galaxy ain't!

I got mine at a coat shop in New Hope, PA (just on the off-chance you're anywhere near there ). It's actually oilskin, but everybody keeps saying it really makes my Mal costume. AAAAAAND, it was one-third the regular price ($300 coat that I got for $100) - so whenever somebody says my coat is sort of a brownish colour, I get to tell them truthfully that it was on sale!!

Yep, got one from Banana Republic, a nice topcoat which I used regularly during the winter.
