What do you guys want in a trench coat?

[kronik]

lol @ 44 being XXL.

Coat looks nice though - may pick one up.

Can you also do adjustments to the shoulders and length for an additional price?

 

[michaeljkrell]

Length, yes, for an extra $20. Shoulders, no...

Looks good. My one concern would be that I have tiny hips, and that the bottom of the coat will flare out far too much on me. Is this something that is easily tailorable? Especially since it is unlined..

 

[haganah]

I'm confused about the armholes or arms too...can people post pictures in here when they get theirs? Thanks.

How are these coming along MJK?

Will we see photos of the green soon? ..of the inside?

How many have sold? How many will be sold?

I'm interested, but need a bit more motivation/information in order to pull the trigger.

Can any of you guys point me in the right direction on what I should look for in my first trench coat. I want something double breasted but short as I'm a pretty short guy. 5'9.

Maybe some good sites to check out too.

Score a used London Fog trench off ebay, thrifitng, w/e and make sure you get measurements and size a good bit down (>size 40 atleast). Then once you score it for cheap, take to to a tailor and hem it to break just above your knees or w/e reasonable height you want.

If you feel like investing more into it, go ahead and get it altered even more while your at it, get it dry cleaned w/e.

If done right you'll have an very good looking and fitting trench for cheap (>$50 even). Also functionally it will perform better than a lot of these "designer" trench coats out there.

Sorry, that's pretty much average.

I hope to have a pics of the green and black as well as some stock by the weekend.

That's a great-looking trench - nice touch with the collar. I like the khaki, but I'd be interested in seeing the green before I pull the trigger.

Fingers crossed it'll be available in XS?

 

[mulansauce]

What happened to the green and black? I keep telling everyone I'm going to have a cool new trench coat soon

 

[michaeljkrell]

I know I keep on saying this, but pics of the green and black will be up shortly. I should be receiving them from Colby today, along with a whole lot of other items.

And Nick, there will be an extra small version.

A small little detail: a button instead of a snap for closing the vent. Snaps are cheap

 

[michaeljkrell]

?? There isn't a snap on the coat.
