Questions and answers

Is the Brinklee warm enough for winter?

It has a quilted synthetic lining, so it handles cold fall and mild winter days. In hard freezes you will likely want a heavier wool or down coat underneath or instead.

Is it actually waterproof?

The polyester shell is described as waterproof, and the zip-plus-button front and high collar help keep rain out. Seams are not stated as sealed, so expect protection for normal rain rather than prolonged downpours.

How does it compare with a classic cotton trench?

It is warmer and more rain-resistant than a cotton-gabardine trench, but less breathable and bulkier. Choose it for cold wet weather; choose cotton for mild, dry days.

How should I care for it?

It is machine washable and can be tumble dried at 30 degrees. Use a low heat setting and avoid high heat, which can damage the synthetic fill and waterproof finish.

What sizes does it come in?

It is offered in US sizes 0, 4, 6 and 14, covering XS through XL. Check the size chart, since the belted, quilted cut runs roomier than an unlined trench.

Does it have pockets?

Pockets are not listed in the product details. Assume a standard trench layout and confirm with the retailer if pockets matter to you.
