As the title says I need a trench coat for the rainy days and a leather jacket that holds me warm this winter. For the trench I'd prefer a single breasted one and leather jacket should be brown( no more details- I'll take everything from motorcycle to A2 style). My size is about 40 L.

But both shouldn't be expensive.





Regards,
Henrik

How "about" is that 40L size with a trench? (sleeves, especially) And how solid are you on the single-breasted idea? Because I have an olive double breasted 40 reg that I'd let go of really cheap, but if you have long arms it could be a problem.

Have you looked at the Ebay sites for Germany, the UK, France, etc? There are very many sellers for the items you are searching for.

If you find items you want and can afford, don't forget to factor shipping charges into your calculations. These are sometimes very high. Distance from the seller is always a factor.

Good luck in your hunt.

I have a brown leather trench coat I don't really wear. Maybe you could kill two birds?

@Not-Bogart13: I'd like to take your coat, too, but sadly I have pretty long arms.


@carter: One should think that that's the way it is, but many things are much cheaper in the USA(including shipping!). For example Converse Chuck's, the normal ones cost about 75$ here in Germany.
I just thought I'd ask for the two things here, before I start to search on ebay.


@Spellflower: I don't like leather overcoats that much, because they can be pretty heavy and always have the Gothic/Matrix image.



Regards,
Henrik

Henrik,

Arms are probably too short for you, eh?

Ok, I just bought this jacket, so it's only the trench I'm still looking for:

Do you still have that trench? That's my size and I may be interested. Does it have a removeable liner?

Lensmaster; The Trench didn't sell on eBay. If you're still interested, yes it has a zip-out liner. You can e-mail me at michaelgarcia@yahoo.com to discuss.

Thanks, but I found another one that looks a lot like Bogies trench coat. Hope you find a buyer for yours.
