MobLand Didn’t Just Get the Coats Right — It Got the Philosophy

We’re not here to play trainspotter with trench coats. This isn’t one of those listicles breaking down every zip and thread from MobLand with an eBay link slapped on or a thumbnail screaming MobLand Trailer Breakdown. 

We’re not hunting down Harry’s exact wax jacket (though, if you’re wondering, it probably smells like a beautiful Barbour or Dunhill or something of that nature). No, this is about something else: the feeling. The posture. The intent.

If you're catching MobLand Season 1, you’ll see those choices pop up again and again. But this isn’t about cosplay. This is about pulling a bit of that quiet strength and putting it in your own wardrobe. Because MobLand didn’t just serve good coats. It gave us a proper lesson in understated, functional, grown-man dressing.

At The Jumper Bar, we care about staples. Pieces with staying power. And that’s why the outerwear in MobLand hit us square in the chest. It’s not trying to impress you. It’s not screaming at anyone.

Harry and Conrad are two sides of the same dangerous coin. Harry’s lean, agile, tactical. Then Conrad? He’s a wall of wool and bad intent. Together, they’re a lesson in dressing like you’ve seen some things. Not because it looks good on Instagram, but because it bloody works.

We wanted to talk about these two because their style does something rare: it’s timeless without being nostalgic. It nods to military roots, but it doesn’t play soldier. And frankly, we need more of that in menswear.

So, let’s break it down. This is what we saw, what we liked, and how we’d wear it.

Styling Philosophy

Start with this: neutral tones. There’s nothing loud here. Olive, stone, tobacco, navy, black. Colours that don’t ask for attention but know how to hold a room.

Next: minimal branding. You won’t find any screaming logos or heritage patches slapped on sleeves. These pieces could’ve been passed down or picked up yesterday. That’s the point.

Functional silhouettes. Coats that cover your arse. Jackets that move with you, not against you. Clothes that do something. They’re not props.

Then there’s the military undercurrent—SAS roots, Hereford references. But it’s not cosplay. It’s about how the military kit was designed to work. Warm, tough, unassuming.

And that’s where the genius lies. These lads could be walking through a muddy field or a Mayfair lobby and look perfectly in place. It's upscale but believable. Tailored but not precious.

The Harrigan’s Coats

You’ll clock that silhouette from a block away. No branding. No gimmicks. Just gravitas.

Try something like the Private White VC ‘The Peacoat’—not your dad’s peacoat, mind. This thing is bulletproof. 30oz Melton wool, reinforced shoulders, made in Manchester with Real-horn, British-made combat buttons.

Or, for something with movement, go for the Private White Permanent Style Wax Walker. Designed with Simon Crompton—it’s waxed, yes, but refined. Still ready for a fight in the woods or a steak in Mayfair. The action-back gives it range, the half-belt cinches with copper hardware, and the removable wool liner flips for versatility. Even the handwarmer pockets are lined in cashmere—because comfort doesn’t weaken command.

Then there’s the Herno Laminar 2-Layer Carcoat. Sleeker silhouette. Same mindset. It’s tailored for a quieter type of authority—the guy who’s dry, warm, and three steps ahead of the storm. Gore-Tex membrane, ultra-fine down insulation, fully taped seams. Quilted inside but polished outside. Resistant without being rigid. Water and wind can try, but they won’t win. And the hood? Removable. Because style isn’t static, and neither is the forecast. It’s part of Herno’s Sartorial Engineering label—science and tailoring shaking hands.

Together, these coats nail the Harrigan brief: functional, commanding, but not trying too hard. Designed for men who speak softly and carry a well-cut jacket.

Core Pieces & Layering

This is where it all comes together. Start with knitwear from Inis Meáin or John Smedley. See these up close in our videos below—merino rollnecks, Donegal crewnecks, the kind that layer clean and never shout. Drake’s and Loro Piana bring texture and tone if you're feeling indulgent. 

Shackleton offers heavier hitters for real weather. Gloves? Hestra, or don’t bother.

Stick to pieces with purpose—Wool trousers, leather gloves, belts. No decoration, no fluff. Just what earns its place. Style isn’t about copying looks—it’s about intent. Build around utility: coats that block wind knits that layer clean, trousers that move. Stick to grounded colours—navy, olive, charcoal—and let texture carry the weight. 

Choose a few great pieces, and wear them often.
