A LITTLE HISTORY
The birth of the trench coat dates back to the year 1820 when the chemist Charles Macintosh and the inventor Thomas Hancok created a coat made of gummed cotton. It was a coat worn only by senior officers in the army.
Later in 1879, Thomas Burberry would create the Burberry “gabardine” fabric. It was much more breathable and was a favorite with adventurers and explorers. Burberry takes credit for inventing the trench coat, but the truth is that it simply helped popularize something that already existed.
Starting in the 40s, Hollywood began to idealize the trench coat in its films, creating the image of an "intrepid detective", a "handsome spy" or a " femme fatale ". It's clear that the trench coat has shed its military functionality, but it still maintains its classic status .
