Overcoats, Trenches, etc.

Jos.A.Bank has these for half price. Most sizes still in stock.

Full whack polo style (aka British Warmer) with the button halfbelt, sleeve cuffs and patch pockets.
I just got one and am enjoying it greatly.
Advise a Long size if you're much over 5'10" or prefer a long coat.

This looks like a much nicer coat, better than the Orvis. Class.

Looks better on me than on that dweeb model, I'l tell you that much.

Correction: A British Warm (no -er) isn't a polo. It's a "Short overcoat, worn by Army Officers as an alternative to the military greatcoat. Fawn in color, double-breasted, short, like a Covert coat. Derived from: "Overcoat, British, warm, officers of field rank, for the use of."

"Short" in this case means knee-length. This is a polo. Hits mid-calf.

Burberry Prorsum...

Just picked this up on eBay for $89.00. Will be interested to see how it turns out (ad said vintage "as new"). Anybody know anything about the Prorsum line?
