Hey Guys-

I'm going to be working in NY soon, and am in the process of getting some decent gear I can wear. I'm looking at the below Burberry trench, which is on sale (although still a bit much for my budget haha).

Anyway, I am about 6'1'', 180 lbs. Broad-ish shoulders, but a bit of a slim waist. I'm concerned about the "modern fit" aspect of the trench. I've come to understand that modern fit means a bit looser and accommodating. I know it has the belt, but I don't want it to look like I'm wearing a thousand dollar trash-bag =]

Also, I've read from previous threads that there is a difference in quality between US and UK Burberry products. Should I stay away from their clothes that are sized in US measurements? They aren't exactly clear about where they were made. I do live near an outlet and the ones there are made in Turkey.

Sorry about such a long thread, and thanks for any responses.

Thanks! Not a huge fan of the back, but I definitely appreciate a good lower cost alternative =]
