Bottle in the sea - I don't know if the expression exists in English?

I have been looking for this parka in size 44 for a long time : https://www.drakes.com/products/roc...-VnZCtUCHIcQ-U8tfpZvBKfwoW5xcf5sEG8uCL8kjiK7l

If anyone wants to get rid of it and make a happy...

Travelling at the moment and watching the Day of the Jackal (after being plastered with ads, they did the trick!)

Drakes being repped in it though, Eddie redmayne in the suede bomber here in Ep2 which I thought was cool

I assume the english equivalent would be "needle in a haystack". I like bottle in the sea, as well.

Good just with your search!

No, we also say "needle in a haystack" (but in french: "une aiguille dans une botte de foin").
The equivalent to "une bouteille à la mer" seems to be "a message in a bottle [thrown into the sea]".

But revenons à nos moutons/let us return to our sheeps.

Do you find the tailored tweeds to be scratchy? Just got a herringbone tweed games in the mail and it’s so coarse. I love the look but can’t tell if it’s gonna irritate and bother me. Not sure if their tweeds are all similar
