Hm, am looking for more summer-weight/colour long coat/duster that will flow, to use in place of the leather trench/dusters and woolen overcoat when it gets warmer... Sadly almost all there is for men is Columbo-type dirty macs, heavy oilskin cowboy gear, and highwayman/coach-driver coats, none of which are quite what I have in mind. (partly cos white doesn't really suit me, even though I really want that Altair/Ezio effect...)

I did see one I fancy but the single-breasted one has a patrol collar, which I don't want cos it doesn't really work for a coat worn open, and the one with the right collar is on the double-breasted one, which is more a thing I wear closed.

May have to get something made, or get a pattern... Still, must keep an eye out in movies for the right sort of thing...
