Functional, stylishly simple, and rainproof trench coats from the French armed forces. These are not clammy as rainwear too often is, as the water repellency is based on magic or something. Here's a practically new French-made coat for a rather affordable price!

Functional, stylishly simple, and rainproof trench coats from the French armed forces. These are not clammy as rainwear too often is, as the water repellency is based on magic or something. Here's a practically new French-made coat for a rather affordable price!

The latest batch had mostly short sizes. Great news for those who usually have to have their off-the-rack clothes shortened to fit.

Button closure in the front and a protective collar that can be popped up. Ordinary front pockets, two hidden pockets on the inside. The fabric is very dense to protect from the wind and rain. The satin lining allows this coat to glide over your clothes when donning. The color is greenish-gray.

On the word "rainproof", it should not be taken to mean you can ride a motorcycle or walk your dog in the pouring rain for hour after hour. There are different jackets and coats for those activities. The fabric is, however, so incredibly repellent against water that it's practically a raincoat for moderate stints through showers of rain.

While this type of coat is stylish, wearing one can produce very suspicious connotations as well: if you're planning to sell contraband items or expose yourself, this is the coat your customers/victims expect you to wear. In case you're female, you can use this coat without wearing much (if anything at all) underneath for a surprise more likely to be pleasant.

Size info

The numbers represent the recommended chest size of the user. There's clearance for everyday clothes or a suit underneath. This is not a greatcoat made for the Siberian winter so don't pick a smaller size "because they are cut large anyway". These are not.

The letters represent the user's length so that M is regular, L is longer and C is shorter. Then there's the shortest XC. Let's learn some French:

  • Very Short - Extra Court (below 158 cm or 5' 2")
  • Short - Court (159 - 168 cm or 5' 2" to 5' 6")
  • Medium - Moyen (169 - 178 cm or 5' 2" to 5' 10")
  • Tall - Long (taller than 179 cm or 5' 11")
  • Material and care

    The tags on the coat don't reveal the material. Might be synthetic, a blend, or mercerized cotton, as it improves tear strength and imparts a shine.

    Delicate wash at 40 degrees Celsius.

    Condition

    In very nice shape, mostly seemed unissued. Some may be a bit wrinkly due to the long storage time but that's it.

    Hieno takki ja oli sopivan kokoinen, vaikka otin yhtä kokoa pienemmän niin mahtuu vielä hyvin päällysvaatteet alle. Tälläisiä pitempiä miesten takkeja ei tavan kaupoista löydä niin tää oli hyvä ostos.

    Just unpacked my trenchcoat. First impressions:

    Sizing: My ideal fit according to the measuring tape would probably be a 104L or 108L, but the 96 longue will work fine as well as long as I'm not wearing a full suit and a sweater. If the larger sizes come into stock again I'll get some to give away as gifts.

    Seems stylish enough to go with a suit on those days you're outside in your best suit and it starts raining. Yes, I'll pack this as part of the emergency kit for any outdoors wedding or funeral service. The pockets are much nicer than expected. The note in the back of the neck says "La Calaisienne - Calais", which I thought was pretty cool.

    So far I've worn this for a couple of days while working as a delivery driver and I've already received compliments on how this looks (something unheard of in my usual mix of surplus and plaid shirts) so it must look stylish to others even if I can't tell the difference myself. In terms of use it has decent sized pockets however I don't feel the liners will stand up well to sharp objects and I don't like how the tails can get in the way if the handbrake, gearstick or seatbelt buckle when driving and in general I wouldn't recommend it for anything to abusive . Fom now on I'll probably keep it for when I'm not working, outdoor events and the like but for the price and the rarely seen short cuts for men I can fully recommend this to any who are interested.

    Very nice, but it is big, I would say, measuring I am L108, but I would probably have fit better in a L100 or 104. But excellent quality and condition, looks as if it has never been used! Bonus hanger included!;-)
    As always with Varusteleka, one get A LOT looking at the prices, best bang for the buck!!

    Sain tuon takin ilmeisesti suoraan noista kuvista (lapussa luki "käytetty markkinoinnissa") - ja 8€ alennusta jo valmiiksi halvasta hinnasta. Ja kyllä kannatti, hemmetin komea takki, vaikea saada mitään näin tyylikästä edes stockmannilta. Keväämmästä voi sitten katsoa miten hyvin takki kestää, mutta luulisin kyllä että oikein hyvin.
