Bought this beauty on eBay. Went through several (Burberry, London fog, etc) that were either too big, too short in the sleeves, or the wrong material (I don’t like the heavy cotton raincoats) I think I finally nailed it. Brooks Brothers, 40L, poly/cotton,slightly past the knee (think Columbo)
Wife thinks it’s God awful and that I look like “someone from an Alfred Hitchcock movie” which made me smile because I love old movies! Lol
Anyway, are these style raincoats really “old fashioned? I don’t think so, but I wanted to see what the cognoscenti here think. Thanks!

Suits you very well actually. Do keep us updated with different styles you will try with it.I have a Burberry trench, yes with the belt and epaulets, which I bought 40 years ago. It still looks magnificent. I bought it one size too large to be worn over a suit. As I'm retired it hasn't been worn in quite a while as I don't stand/walk much in the rain anymore to catch a bus, train, cab, or plane, but when I did wear it I always wore one of my fedora hats to complete the classic look.
