I don't care about Harry Potter, except for his corduroy bomber, barn, Harrington, what the hell is that jacket?
It's not a Barbour jacket because that would be too posh for English cockney kids. Not a trucker. Not enough seams.
With classic bomber jackets, I see shearling and welt pockets. Or pilot jackets with no shearling and patch pockets mid-torso for navigation maps and cigarettes.
Need more detail?
Sorry, didn't mean to cut off his wand. It was especially made, presumably, by UK costumiers, Angels.
I would describe it as a zip-front ranch jacket.
Belstaff, the motorcyle jacket company, refers to this kind of cut as a blouson.
Quiksilver (below) has something close but the collar is different. It also comes in gunmetal grey.
