    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    Here's a screenshot of the article (which is mostly photos) in Tom's link. I kinda like that Maison Margeula one, which reminds me of a very similar design London Fog dig a few years back, although LF added a belt. Not really a traditional trench coat, though.

    Time for a grizzly?

    Whenever I see one of these jackets posted here I immediately think of them the same way I think of Hudson Bay coats: they look great in the dead of winter trudging through a foot of snow, but look stupid at all other times and contexts.

    Subjective personal opinions can be difficult to reconcile, and sometimes downright bewildering

    It's important for every man who cares about clothes to learn how to judge himself, not rely on others. Nearly all of the "rules" about clothes which get bandied around on the men's clothing forums are mostly personal biases pumped up into universal rules, in other words, they're b.s. Most of us...

    Psychology: The One

    I think the big barrier to finding "the one jacket to rule them all" is Person A making the mistake of thinking that a jacket which suits Person B will also suit A, when in fact A should be looking for a completely different jacket which is more suitable to A and which will look as awesome on A...

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    ^ Your coat looks authentic, to judge by proportions, etc. Mine's the same just a darker shade.

    We are out of touch with mainstream jacket consumers . . . .

    If anyone is looking to Schott Perfecto jackets for the broad-shoulder, narrow-waist look then one look at their measurements numbers should end that dream.

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    I have one without the gun flap. They did a bunch of coats in the 1990s and early 2000s without the flap. Some from that era were 100% cotton (instead of Burberry's traditional blend) in colours like grey and olive green with non-standard check for the lining. The same coats from that period...

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    I agree that too much legend has grown up around "vintage Burberry trench coats", when it fact they were really just good quality but not amazing. I have a couple of coats made in Canada from a West German fabric which are just as good as my vintage Burberry coats. There may have been a time...

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    Bill Cosby in a Burberry coat. (Please, no comments please about his 'situation', let the courts decide.) It looks like a barely used coat, but not a new/recent one, to judge by the pockets... the coats from the last several years have pockets with the leading edge sewn in, not on top like on...

    ^ Looks great, Gamma! Having a winter liner & overcollar is really useful for colder days. It's nice to see your coat buttons quite a long way down the front, also useful for colder days.

    I hate to say this, but it's likely your job won't exist by the time she's entering the workforce. I hope I'm wrong, but billions of dollars and thousands of smart people are working hard right now to make it happen.
