Even a matter-of-fact sort of chap, when he puts on a proper trenchcoat, can feel a difference.
A man who puts on a trenchcoat is naturally inclined to become a bit braver, a bit kinder. Part of the reason, of course, is that the trenchcoat was in all those black-and-white movies. But it wouldn’t have been in those movies if it didn’t have the right stuff to begin with.
English-Style Trenchcoat (No. 1869), with authentic storm flaps, epaulettes, and D-rings, like the one in the scene where they say goodbye at the airport, the sound of propellers turning. Doublebreasted. Fully-lined. Aged brass hardware.
N.B. I had this made up in tightly-woven cotton twill that repels
wind and water but is much lighter and softer than the usual
gabardine, and has an experienced look.
Men’s sizes: 38 through 48.
Colors: Khaki./p>
Price: $325
