Only ever wear grandma certified garnments. Thats the rule I follow. I would wear my grandpas clothes, but she gave them away. She donated them,so I can still live with it, because someone else, who needed them more is getting use out of them. I still use his watch and cufflinks for special occasions tho. As it turns out I am essentially him in younger and bigger, as I appearently share many of his habits, except smoking.

Whenever I can wear my trench coat I’m issued in the Marines, my family friends and girlfriend often say it’s very assertive looking and feel very comfortable walking with me. So if you want a trench coat but are worried what people would think. don’t be, be confident and walk with purpose and no matter who you are it will look good on you.

I normally wear my trench coat during the 3 seasons besides Sumer due to the intense heat. But when Autumn and Spring come along, I tend to wear it for warmth and I like the feel and look at myself when the wind hits and the end of my coat flaps. During the winter, I regularly wear something warm under the coat like more layers of clothes. Personally, I don't pay any mind to what people think of me when I'm wearing a trench coat, especially if I'm at school. I just like the fashion of the trench coat or even a duster.

The so-called "Trench Coat Mafia" you're referencing actually wore Dusters, not Trench Coats.

Wrong fact about the gun flap, I went to a Burberry training about the Gaberdine trench coat and the reason behind the gun flap before was because when they would shoot their rifles during the war, the kickback of the rifle ends up ruining their coats, so the gun flap was made and was actually replaceable so they wouldn't have to fix the whole coat, it was a quicker way so they could use their trench coat right away. Just through i'd share this info so you could help improve the knowledge of people! Great VIdeos and keep it up! Deep Yoke Back - The extra layer was there because during the war, the most exposed part of the person is the back, they added that for extra protection against the rain. The Check - The Check on the Burberry Trench Coat was actually a request by a customer of theirs who just wanted a design on the lining, it just caught on afterwards and they started to implement it into their design. hope this helps!

Burberry's a bit off here. A flap of cloth won't do anything for kickback, but I can see some argument for wear and tear. If you look at the history of the coat, it was purchased by Officers. Officers didn't typically use rifles, but they did use pistols. When their arms are raised in a shooting position, rain would frequently enter their coat due to the collar "billowing out", so the flap was added so they could raise their arm and remain dry - exactly as was mentioned in the video.

A concise and informative vid. I retired from the U.S. Marine Corps 12 years ago after 20 years of service. I recently pulled my service trench coat out of the sea bag (yes, I can still fit my uniforms) and put it in the dry cleaners in time for spring. You taught me some things. For instance, I never knew about the gun flap, but it makes perfect sense, thanks.

The thing about Gabardine cloth is that even though it is 100% cotton, it's a very tight and thick weave. It is designed to 'swell' when water hits it, and then keeps from further ingress of water. Wearing a wool sweater/jumper underneath should help the system work just a bit better, but cotton is not my first choice. Other garments you might look at are those made from Grenfell cloth, and of course Harris Tweed, which is wool. I prefer the wool myself.

I had a stunning Burberry trench but sold it to buy an aquascutum one from there store on regent street there staff are extremely helpful and will make alterations and send it to you highly recommend them

I found a deep blue military (Navy) trench coat at a surplus store for 20 dollars. We dated it to about the early 70's. It's crazy warm. Normally I wear it only when it's incredibly cold out, as it's fairly unwieldy and somewhat difficult to drive in. But, I always get compliments on it when I do wear it.

My wife bought me a really good trench coat some years ago now. It was very long, so I had it shortened recently about a foot. This keeps in with modern coat style nowadays I think. (2019). I am sure the trench was rubbished somewhat when it was used in some sketches like ''Some mothers do have em'' and in ''Inspector Clueso'' starring Peter Sellers.These are now forgotten, so I am sure that it can be worn with dignity again.

Found a great trench coat in a second hand store. 60% cotton, 40% poly. Checks most of the other boxes mentioned in the video with one exception. I got it home and realized no belt. Suggestions on how to replace the belt on this $8 find? Is going beltless acceptable and should I just rock it like a top coat? The trench is a dark grey. Note too the collar has a black over liner and looks to be removable like the inner liner. I imagine this is for transitioning from one season to the next. Appreciate any and all suggestions regarding the replacement of the belt

Bought one today, a Dutch (new) surplus army trench coat. Crazy affordable, a bunch were hanging on a rack in a military surplus store (in the Netherlands) with no price tag. So I asked the price, thinking it would be 70 euros or so which is still cheap as it was a surplus store... But then they told me, oh... These are 17,50 euros ! With removable winter liner. Bought it right away!!! Such a bargain, as new and super nice fit. I am going to wear it over my suit when going to work during bad weather. Looking forward doing so.

May I ask a sizing question? I'm looking at a vintage Burberry Navy trench and from pit to pit measurement it is at 18.5 inches but the price is now at USD $340 for a Size 34/36 I have seen Medium listings and they are much cheaper but the measurments is wider at 22 inchs pit to pit. So would u say that going with a medium and using it to layer is a good way to go? I'm just worried if it won't be fitted.
