Men's Plymouth Double Breasted Belted Micro Twill Light Lined Trench Coat

A good trench coat is essential for a well-dressed man's wardrobe. And the London Fog Plymouth Twill certainly captures the classic styling of a vintage trench coat. Outwardly, it looks great, with epaulettes, adjustable wrist buckles, a belt that does not easily tangle, and a dark khaki hue. This is what most people would imagine a good trench coat to look like. You will not be mistaken for either Columbo or a Matrix wannabe when wearing this coat! And it's comfortable to wear, with soft pocket linings and a breast pocket that even has a zipper.The coat is roomy. It's intended to be worn over a suit jacket or blazer. Without it, unless you are very portly, the coat will appear too large for you. There's nothing unusual about this, as this is how trench coats are usually sized unless you happen to find one that follows the slim-fit trend. Just buy the size that corresponds to the size of your usual blazer and you will be fine. And you will want to wear this over a blazer as the coat does not come with a heavy removable lining (more about this later). The roominess may not be appealing to those used to a more tailored, tighter fit.Of course, at this price point, corners will be cut. The first thing I noticed was, despite the otherwise sturdy stitching throughout, the buttons were not securely attached to the coat. This may turn into an issue that will haunt you, because it is not fun reattaching buttons yourself and because London Fog recommends machine washing and not dry cleaning the coat. Washing machines are notorious for loosening buttons! The second, possibly more serious issue is that quality trench coats usually come with a removable inner lining to help keep you warm in colder weather. This coat does NOT have such a removable zipper lining. While no one ever confused a classic trench for a parka, the lack of a good lining is a very big deal if you're planning on wearing this below, say, 52 degrees F. (The presence of a good lining would go a long way toward making the coat less roomy, too). The wind will cut through this coat. And, as the coat is not waterproofed, a lining would help keep you try on very rainy days.Yes, London Fog's description makes it clear that there is no removable lining. Even so, given the coat's good looks, a lining is something you'd expect.Now that you know the shortcomings, you can make a better informed decision. I wish I could have given this a split rating, with a 4 for the look of the coat and a 3 for the buttons issue.

Comparable to a previous London Fog trench coat that have served me well many years that I have literally traveled with world wide. The color is as depicted but the texture differs from similar coats in that it has a somewhat "nappy" feel to it, similar to suede but not as textured. To correct a previous response this coat does NOT have a zip-out lining as reported and thus is a 3 seasons coat. Another responder accurately stated the belt could have been more substantial but it remains serviceable nonetheless, Overall the details are true to the traditional trench coat at a fair price as advertised.

A decent looking trench coat. Feels soft, lightweight and not very warm. Perfect over a suit jacket and not slim enough to wear over shirt.This is not 100% polyester but bi-constituent with nylon. That does NOT make it a waterproof raincoat. But it would be water resistant. Then, because it does not have a full body liner, it won't surely be warm when wet. So wear it in drizzle , not heavy rain. People who wear a trench would love to buy one and expect it to last over 10 years. I doubt it would hold.What I liked about design is double gun flaps like a classic trench coat. That may compel me to keep this. But it would have been lot better to have this with a full body liner.

Overall, this jacket fit me rather well. I knew from past experience that for me, a 40 would be a bit too big but seeing as how the 38 ran around $80 more than the 40 small, I figured ai could work with it. Turns out the coat fit better than I expected. There are a couple of loose strings (literally) on the coat. I don’t much mind, but for $100 I didn’t expect such an amateur flaw. I will say I like the coat. The color was the same as advertised. The length of the coat itself was a little longer than what was pictured but not enough to make too much of a difference (closer to knee length then mid-thigh). I bought this coat for cosplay purposes, and it hasn’t let me down yet. I would recommend making full use of the belt, otherwise it will simply billow around you. Other than that the jacket is fine. It is resistant against light drizzle (and minor water spills). I haven’t worn it out in any heavy rain yet, and I don’t intend to, but I feel like it would hold up well in the occasional storm. I have been wearing it out in the cold weather and it has served me well. It’s a good jacket, but I’d like it better if it didn’t cost me $100. You’re really only paying that much for the brand name, because this is a London Fog coat. The only reason I paid what I did for it was because it was /exactly/ what I was looking for and no other retailer within my immediate area had one like it. Unless this is specifically what you’re looking for, I might recommend shopping around a little more if you’re just looking for a nice long coat. Overall I’m satisfied with my purchase, I just wish it hadn’t cost me so much.

My son loves it. Was a costume prop but he plans on wearing it often. 40 regular.

It fits pretty well, I bought the 40 small, but I should have gotten the 38 s and it would have still been enough to let me fit a suit jacket in there too. My fault. The fabric was great, I expected a 100 percent polyester coat like my other one tbh, but this coat is actually part nylon (the stuff most jeans are made out of). The nylon mix feels and looks so much better than the 100 polyester. I'm glad I bought this coat, hell I says it's better than my cotton poly coat I wore before. You don't really have to order a size larger, cuz the coat is pretty big (being double breastfed n all). Nylon mix is A OKAY in my book, it's the shiny 100 percent polyester coats on amazon people should stay away from.

This jacket feels great compared to any knock off inexpensive coat you have tried. The material is cotton and will probably need some camp dry to work well. It is a heavy outer shell with no insulation. Perfect for spring or fall. Its just not my style. I ordered my normal jacket size 40R and I'm 5'8" 175 with an athletic build. It was too loose in chest and waist and too long. Want more of a slim fit.

You will not get a better quality overcoat for this price. Material, stitching, linking and buttons are top quality. I find the belt a little snug but honestly I am overly impressed with this product, I highly recommend.

they are amazing high quality jackets and very comfortable, this one however is just a slight bit too wide but because im 6''3 the arms felt a bit short.

Fits well & looks great

Pretty good coat for the price. Not easy to get a long fit these days, so that alone makes it stand out amongst the crowd

regular is cool also as the long size
