Raincoats by Burberry

During periods of rainy and unpredictable off-season, you want to put on something as comfortable as possible, warm and always waterproof. In such situations, raincoats always save. Many eminent companies offer such products in a huge assortment, but people who know a lot about the quality and style of this attire often prefer the Burberry brand and for good reason.

The raincoats of this British fashion house combine two especially valuable characteristics - unsurpassed quality and modern appearance. What is the uniqueness of this brand and how does a company that has existed for more than a century manage to maintain an unsurpassed reputation?

The now well-known company was founded back in 1856 and initially specialized in the production of outerwear for the military. Brand founder Tom Burberry invented the world's first breathable and waterproof fabric, which he actively used for tailoring his products. This material consisted of fine wool of Merino sheep, so it was incredibly soft, light and at the same time warm.

Gabardine, and this is how the newfangled fabric was nicknamed, became an excellent alternative to the hard and heavy rubberized fabric from which raincoats, popular at that time, were made - macs.After some time, Burberry's unique raincoats became popular among the civilian population, but even now, after a century, the company's products have individual features.

The main feature of Burberry products, which makes them recognizable all over the world, is a check-shaped print, and not an ordinary one, but combining only four colors - sand, white, black and red.

The second highlight is the complex double-breasted collar, which is unique in its kind and was first invented for raincoats of this brand in the last century.

Belts with buckles, raglan sleeves, a yoke, a slit at the back - all these are the hallmarks of Burberry raincoat styles that have been exclusive for a long time.

The main advantage of Burberry raincoats is that they are synonymous with timeless English classics. By choosing such attire, you emphasize your status and ability to dress well. Having bought a raincoat from this brand once, you can wear it for decades, because it is not only of excellent quality, but it never goes out of style.

Raincoats from Burberry are perfectly combined with almost all elements of the wardrobe, and if a person appreciates constancy and practicality, this is the best option for him.

The famous brand prefers to keep up with the times, so in the modern Burberry clothing line you can find not only classic models of raincoats made of gabardine fabric, but also more advanced items interspersed with lace, silk and leather.

There are even models with leopard and python prints, as well as models with hearts and flowers. It is worth considering that the following types of raincoats were considered the most popular at all times.

The classic version is a beige raincoat with a straight-cut double-breasted collar, knee-length or slightly lower. But there are exceptions. So, now they prefer to choose the same model, but in light yellow or black colors and fitted.

Quite often there are shortened models of trench coats that barely reach the middle of the thigh, or vice versa - elongated, reaching the middle of the ankle. The collar in modern models can be single-breasted, and the checkered lining may or may not be present.

If an uninformed person can still doubt the name of the brand, looking at the Burberry trench coat, then in checkered models the brand is called “on the face”. Classic plaid raincoats are always made in beige and sand tones, and a lattice of black, white and red shades seems to be superimposed on top of the general background. The general background of modern models can be of a different shade - pink, red, brown, purple, gray, and then the shade of the cell can visually be somewhat modified.

The Burberry raincoat is perfect with almost any wardrobe item, be it cropped or elongated dresses, simple jeans or shirts and blouses. You can combine a raincoat with skirts and turtlenecks, with classic heels or high boots, but you should remember the harmony of color combinations.

To experience all the benefits of a Burberry raincoat, you need to choose a truly branded item, and not a good fake. This can be done by looking at the lining, which should not be made of synthetics, but of a material with natural fibers. Buttons, fasteners and zippers must be marked with the trademark logo.Smooth seams, high-quality stitching without protruding threads are a sign of a genuine brand model.

The most important distinguishing feature of a genuine Burberry trench coat is the price, which simply cannot be small. The cost of the classic women's model in modern online stores reaches $1,695.00, and the men's - $1,795.00. The price of more modern models is never lower than $1,500.00.
