I agree that too much legend has grown up around "vintage Burberry trench coats", when it fact they were really just good quality but not amazing. I have a couple of coats made in Canada from a West German fabric which are just as good as my vintage Burberry coats. There may have been a time several decades ago when they stood above the rest of the field, but that hasn't been so since at least the 1980s. Still, you can't go wrong if you get one for a reasonable price.And you can see again the quality-level of todays Burberry trenchcoats. There's just no big difference to my (german) 199 EUR-storebrand-trenchcoat, which is basically the same massmarket-cutaway modell, of course not made from genuine Gabardine, but rather solid 59% cotton/41% Nylon-Gabardine weave.
