Casual Sportcoat/Trench?

I am looking for a sportcoat for spring/summer that I can wear casually and without trying too hard. It has to be quite versatile and not too warm. I was looking at this one from rugby:

...but i don't know about the quality? Anyone? At the same time I am not 100% sure on which color to get, taupe or navy?

Any suggestions on other sportcoats?

I was also thinking about getting a beige trench instead simply because I don't have one and would like to have something to wear on top of the suit during office-time. In this case it has to be a short trench.

The best thing would be to find a combination of a sportcoat and a trench but that I consider impossible.

this one is probably as close to the blazer trench idea.
