Is the Kensington trench worth $2,850?

It is a genuine Burberry Heritage trench with a classic cut that holds its style for years. Whether that is worth $2,850 depends on how often you will wear it; the viscose blend is a step down from cotton gabardine at this price.

How does the mid-length Kensington differ from the long version?

The mid-length falls around the knee rather than below it, which suits shorter frames and everyday wear. The styling, belt and double-breasted front are the same.

What is the fabric, and is it waterproof?

This version is a viscose blend, not Burberry's cotton gabardine. It resists light rain but is not a fully waterproof coat.

How does the sizing run?

The Kensington is a tailored fit. Owners often suggest sizing up if you plan to layer knitwear underneath, and checking the chest and shoulder measurements.

When is the best time to buy it?

Trench prices tend to soften in end-of-season sales and around major shopping events. The current best new price is $2,850 at FARFETCH as of November 7, 2026.
