Reply to comment by WiseChoices in Not the best picture but I hope you all enjoy my 1955 Belgian army trench coat, it's warm, waterproof and really durable. bought it for only €20 too! by zoefkris

Here is a photo of the back of the coat! https://imgur.io/OWB06g5?r No, it doesn't have extra pockets, just the two on the front.

TY

Very nice! Lots of room for adjusting and venting for how warm or cold it is. Functional epaulets are handy, too.

We found a vintage US Navy coat for a Grandchild. The quality of these fabrics is remarkable.

Hers doesn't have that great detailing in the back, just one flat vent for walking.

She said that it is remarkably waterproof.

You found a good thing 👌

Edit: Thanks again for getting back to me.

I know it's nice, if you're ever looking for some more I've found that uniforms from the 1980's fit very well with these coats as long as they're solid colour and not camouflaged, let me see if I can find a picture demonstrating that

Here you go, combined with this 1981 Dutch military uniform it looks awesome, sadly I don't have any photos of the two combined, I'll try to make one tomorrow after the uniform gets out of the washing machine
