Coat and Raincoat

[Ben from Boston]

Hey guys,


I'm looking for two things: raincoats and a fall overcoat for when the weather starts getting colder, but not yet cold. Both would have to be okay to wear to work (my office is business casual). I 'm trying to avoid the north face/patagonia look, but also not looking for the full size trench.


Thanks,

Ben

I really like the cropped trench from asos. Its under $50 (and free shipping).

It runs a bit small (I', 5'11 and 145 pounds and the medium fit me the best). Also its more of a dark brown color than black. That being said it fits well,looks great and can fit over a blazer. Its good to wear in a professional environment but not too dressy. I live in the Mid-Atlantic region of the country and its good for fall.

I do like that... I've never gone double breasted, but it's a good look. No mediums left unfortunately.

I like this... except for those buttons.

This may be ignorance, but is there an actual purpose to those?
