A trench coat or trenchcoat is one of the most successful models of a raincoat. Typically, it's a garment with shoulder straps, double-breasted, featuring a lapel collar, yoke, cuffs, a slit at the back, and a belt, usually knee-length.
Trench coats are made from highly durable synthetic or blended materials:
- Artificial/natural thin leather;
- Lyocell;
- Modacrylic, Modal;
- Fabrics for raincoats;
- Nylon.
The fabric can be impregnated or made with a special technology that effectively repels moisture from the outside, preventing it from being absorbed and getting wet.
No brand jacket can replace a trench coat in high humidity, rain, or fog conditions. This is the best choice - stylish, spectacular, and extremely feminine.
