Would you wear it? The $100 Hilifiger Icon Trench

Tommy Hilfiger Icon Trench – $100 (reg. $498)

Part of the Extra 50% off Sale Promotion… which ends 1/25

It must feel like you guys are being beat over the head with outerwear lately.  What can I say.  I like coats.  Especially great looking & well fitting coats that take a classic style and add some contemporary details.  But I’m not so sure on this one.  Even at the bargain 80% off clearance price.

The interior mock neck vest has to go.  And it can since it’s intended to be removable.  By the looks of the back side on the sold-out Navy version, there’s no true belt, but instead just a back piece with buttons on it.  It’s a longer looking four button front with a great ticket pocket and the khaki color appears to be a bit lighter than normal.

But what about that piping across the upper lapel?  Zoom in and it looks like it’s a red, white, and blue homage to the Hilfiger logo.  I doubt anyone will make that connection… but does it ruin the look?  Or is it a unique feature that for $100 you’d be willing to embrace and or deal with?

Part of the Hilfiger 25th Anniversary collection (think less bulky and boring, and more trim and stylish).  Originally priced at a “child please” level of $500.  Now just $100 with all sizes available.

If you were in the market for a trench, would you give it a shot?  Leave your vote in the comments section…

The no longer available navy version. Notice the vest and non-belt... belt.
