Banana Republic Cotton Trench

Banana Republic Cotton Trench – $225.00

This is going to be another one of those tricky gambles where you wait for it to go on sale, it does, it’s still too expensive, and by the time it gets down to the level you can afford there’s only one Medium or Large left.

You’ll have to be quick if you find that last one in your size.  Unless of course you’re a small or Double XL.  And then I’m guessing you get almost all of your clothes for cheap on the clearance rack.

Perfect for the warmer months in a nicely lighter shade of the classic khaki.  It almost looks more of an off white.  Careful though, sometimes the pics online will differ from reality.  What you’re looking for is an off white, almost super light gray trench.  This looks to fit that mold, but you don’t want a coat that’s the same color as your Dad’s old London Fog.

$225 is pricey for a cotton coat, but the design is flawless.  Makes you wish the folks at Macy’s could put together a lighter version of their Black and Gloomy Alfani Red-Label trench.
