I am looking to buy my first trench coat, preferably a vintage burberry.
The latest heritage Westminster line from Burberry seems to have a good length, just hovering around the knee, and a slight loose fit, which seems in line with the traditional trench coat styling.
Also it's 100% cotton on the exterior, which I hear is better for breathability over poly mixes (typically 51% cotton with 49% synthetic)
But all the ones I'm seeing online from over the years have either gun flap pockets missing, or are way too long, or are fitted extremely large, or are poly blends, rather than 100% cotton.
What are some details you think are worth having in a trench coat?
Is 100% cotton worth waiting for?
What is the proper length with respect to one's knees?
How does your trench coat fit compared to your other overcoats?
