Today has been a windy day with some irregular showers. In other words, a perfect day for a trenchcoat. Created by Burberry in the first half of the 20th century, the trenchcoat became widespread when the military started using them (hence the name). Nowadays there are many versions out there and they're just as suitable for the modern urban lifestyle as they were for the World Wars.I found a great one at End Clothing, a perfect double-breasted version from french label Surface To Air, in the most classic trenchcoat-color of them all, beige. It's made in a waxed cotton fabric which will get you some protection against the rain and also age beautifully and the buttons are made of horn. The pockets are great, the buttoned single vent in the back is great, and as always I really like the belt which gives you the possibility to adjust the fit a bit, to get it just perfect. Long story short, this is a great trench and if you're in the market for one, pull the trigger.
