Vintage Aquascutum Raincoat Wool Gabardine England Size XL
$175.00
Brand Poppy's Vintage Clothing
This is a wonderful vintage Aquascutum raincoat made in England. This vintage Aquascutum raincoat is made of 100% pure wool gabardine and has a 100% rayon viscose navy blue lining that is woven with “Aquascutum of London” throughout. It has nice simple lines with none of the typical flaps and straps seen on a trench coat. The collar can be worn up to protect the neck. The sleeves have a single button tab belt at the cuff. It is cut with raglan sleeves and the buttons down the front, except for the neck, are hidden by use of a double flap. It has a slit pocket at either side and a 17” kick pleat at the back. The fabric on this vintage Aquascutum raincoat has been “showerproofed” so has a smoother feel than traditional gabardine.
