Gore-Tex / Technical Material Trench Coats

[Becks23]

Looking to grab a trench coat with breathable/waterproof characteristics. When it gets rainy in Hong Kong, it's often super humid as well hence the need for a more technical material.

I haven't really seen too many brands that have a consistent offering that fits the bill, any help greatly appreciated.

There is a long, blue gore-tex coat in the nom de guerre SS09 collection. It's not d/b like a trench but perhaps it'll suit.

Thanks a lot, I actually looked at it yesterday on oki-ni (same one I assume?)

I saw one from Paddin (Australian outdoor brand/retailer)

Price is ok and its legit Gore-Tex Paclite. Not sure of fit cause its more for utility rather than aesthetics though.

I like this nanamica gore-tex hooded coat

Nanamica / TNF Purple Label stuff is neat but stuff is too small for me in the shoulders/chest.

The unfortunate aspect is that fashion-centric pieces of this nature are usually pretty slim.

What's the breathability of Macks like?

I know its rubberized cotton so it sort of turns me off a bit.

UC

UC is definitely another good choice, I should try hitting up the UC store in HK, just that it's in the middle of nowhere ha.

Thanks
