It is formal in shape and rich in colour, and it makes a wool overcoat feel ordinary.

Tailoring in Brown Leather

A double-breasted front always looks serious. The overlapping panels, the paired rows of buttons and the strong peak lapels give the coat a wide, confident chest that suits men who stand tall. The six-button arrangement keeps the line balanced, and the belt cinches the waist so the coat does not hang like a tent.

Chocolate brown is the right colour for leather at this length. It is dark enough to look smart with a suit and warm enough to avoid the harsh feel black can have in a long coat.

Double-Breasted Leather Trench Features

• Chocolate-brown leather: deep, warm and easy to match.
• Peak lapel: a sharp, formal collar line.
• Six-button double-breasted front: traditional overlapping closure.
• Waist belt: shapes the coat and keeps out draughts.
• Knee length: longer coverage than a jacket.

Smart Outfits, Fit and Care

Wear it over a suit for the office, or over a jumper and tailored trousers on a night out. Take your normal size if you wear it over a shirt and jacket combination, and consider a size up if you need to wear a chunky knit with it. The belt makes small adjustments easy, but the shoulders must fit, so compare them to the size chart. A coat this long deserves a proper hanger.
