The quintessential British icon.
This vintage Burberrys’ trench coat is the ultimate forever piece, hailing from the era before the brand dropped the 's' from its name. Crafted in England from the house’s signature weather-resistant gabardine, it features the clean lines of a classic car coat with a concealed button placket for a streamlined, minimalist finish.
The interior reveals the unmistakable House Check lining, a hallmark of luxury that remains as coveted today as it was decades ago. With its raglan sleeves and longline silhouette, it offers that effortless, oversized "borrowed from the archives" look that pairs just as well with a hoodie and leggings as it does with sharp tailoring.
This is a true investment in heritage - durable, timeless, and designed to look even better with age.
Original retail price for a current equivalent is approx £1,600.

Condition
Item is in very good vintage condition.
The gabardine outer is well-preserved with a crisp handle. There are a few small marks, and some darkening of the fabric around the back neck where the collar folds down.
There is a vintage name tag on the interior ("INNES") which adds a touch of authentic provenance to this archival piece.
All original buttons and the internal "Burberrys' London" label are intact.
Overall, this piece is in very good condition for its age (late 1980's/early 1990's). Any flaws are small and are not noticeable when the item is worn.
