Well, after they grow out of DotA and WoW, they need somewhere to go to build a new virtual life.

It pleases me greatly to read how highly you rate the Invertere coats. Invertere ARE still manufacturing coats in England although only selling direct to the end customer. Having read many of the posts on Style Forum it appears American men are still far more passionate and knowledgable about their clothing than us Brits.

Coatwright, I presume you have a connection with Invertere? I've searched the net and can't find out too much information.

Is there anything you can tell us about the quality, style, or availability?

I own a Burberry 19 Slim. It's an excellent trench for the younger crowd, with its 3/4 length. However, the actual construction was a bit of a let down. Still great, and well above most contenders, but not as amazing as the Burberry would imply. I'm definitely checking out Armoury for my next raincoat. I've come across the pictures several times on this site, and each time I've fallen in love with it.

That's great to hear - where do we find out more about them? By the way, I'm a Brit!

Coatwright, I messaged you to see about ordering a coat, but you haven't replied. How does one go about ordering a coat from Invertere now if they are in fact producing coats and selling them directly to the consumer?
