(My favorite Uniqlo trench is back in stock, so I’m including it even though it isn’t cropped.)
How much should a cropped trench coat cost?
Factors that should keep the cost lower than other coats:
* It is made of cotton, not cashmere and not a silk blend
* It doesn’t have overtly ambitious sculpting or embellishment
* It doesn’t require high performance insulation
Nonetheless, some labels focus on too many bells and whistles instead of getting the key features right. Due to the trench coat’s military history, its details have purpose beyond aesthetic signaling.
A gun flap on the wrong side may not affect you if you’re not wearing your coat in the stormiest of storms, but it looks really off to me.
