Kensington Organic Cotton-Gabardine Trench Coat

Trench coat pioneer Thomas Burberry developed the house's eponymous gabardine fabric in 1879, and a beautiful lineup of iterations has followed since. Made in England from organic cotton, the 'Kensington' style has all the hallmarks of the original including military-inspired epaulettes, a storm flap and, of course, the iconic checked lining. Layer yours up or down - it'll be a trustee companion for the long haul.

Creators of the wardrobe staple that never goes out of style, Burberry has been a leading voice of fashion innovation since its Basingstoke beginnings in 1856. From the early invention of gabardine to its 1990s fashion re-birth, Burberry has always declared its character in a resolute voice, with an artful approach to heritage style.
