It stops at the hips, around \u003cstrong\u003e64 to 67 cm of back length\u003c\/strong\u003e depending on the size, which makes it easy to wear over straight jeans as well as a midi skirt. The cotton-blend twill is matte, firm, without rigidity: it holds the line of the garment without breaking stiffly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brown faux leather shirt collar cuts against the camel. It is the detail that signs the piece and avoids the classic trench effect. The rest follows the codes of the genre: wide crossed lapels, tonal double-breasted buttons, button placket and chest flap, two patch pockets with buttoned flaps, a cape yoke at the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA loose cut that the belt takes in\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shoulders are dropped and the sleeves wide, with an open cuff. The width across is deliberately generous: \u003cstrong\u003e102 cm bust in XS, 114 cm in L\u003c\/strong\u003e. You can therefore slip a knitted jumper underneath without being tight at the armholes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tie belt, held by loops, leaves the choice to you. Tied tightly, it marks the waist and gives an hourglass silhouette. Left open, the jacket falls straight with a slight flare over the hips, underlined by a small vent at the sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to wear it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOver raw jeans and ankle boots, belt tied, for everyday wear;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen over a pleated midi skirt and loafers;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOver a fine roll-neck when the temperature drops, belt tightened on top;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWith chocolate wide trousers to echo the brown of the collar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fabric is \u003cem\u003enot stretch\u003c\/em\u003e: the ease comes from the cut, not from the material. It is a mid-season piece, designed for spring and autumn, with no thermal lining. The jacket weighs about 0.7 kg, a weight you feel in the hand but which stays comfortable on the shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe camel varies slightly with the light: lighter outdoors, deeper indoors. The images give the real shade; a difference in screen rendering remains possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey points\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA trench shortened to the hips, easier to wear than the long model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrown faux leather shirt collar, a clean contrast on the camel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTie belt with loops: a defined waist or a straight silhouette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDropped shoulders and wide sleeves: worn over a knit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatte twill that holds the cut without rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatch pockets with buttoned flaps, genuinely usable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFabric and care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Main fabric: cotton-blend twill, tight weave, matte finish, no elastane. Applied collar in faux leather (polyurethane), brown colourway. Tonal buttons. Belt in the same twill as the body of the garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand wash or machine wash at 30 °C on a delicate programme, in a wash bag, with the belt removed and the buttons fastened. No tumble dryer: heat hardens the faux leather of the collar. Dry flat or on a wide hanger, in the shade, to preserve the line of the shoulders. Gentle ironing on the reverse, avoiding the collar and the buttons. The faux leather collar is cleaned with a damp cloth, with no solvent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes XS to L, measurements taken flat, tolerance of 1 to 2 cm. XS: bust 102 cm, back length 64 cm, shoulder + sleeve 71.5 cm, hem 104 cm. S: 106 \/ 65 \/ 73 \/ 108 cm. M: 110 \/ 66 \/ 74.5 \/ 112 cm. L: 114 \/ 67 \/ 76 \/ 116 cm. The cut is loose by construction: take your usual size for the intended volume, or the size down if you prefer a look closer to the body once belted. The fabric does not give, so do not go down a size if you plan to wear a thick jumper underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill the faux leather collar crack?\u003c\/strong\u003e Faux leather degrades mainly under heat and solvents. Avoid the tumble dryer, direct ironing on the collar and harsh stain removers. A damp cloth is enough for everyday care. Following those rules, the collar keeps its look season after season.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan I wear it in deep winter?\u003c\/strong\u003e That is not what it is for. The twill blocks the wind well but the jacket is not insulated. It works from spring to autumn, and in a mild winter over a thick knit thanks to its wide armholes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWon't the loose cut make me look wider?\u003c\/strong\u003e That is what the belt is for. Tied at the waist, it re-centres the silhouette and the flare over the hips becomes a style effect. If you are under 1.65 m, the short length of 64 to 67 cm works in your favour: it leaves the leg visible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SQOCH","offers":[{"title":"XS \/ camel","offer_id":55280591733065,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"S \/ camel","offer_id":55280591765833,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ camel","offer_id":55280591798601,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"L \/ camel","offer_id":55280591831369,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/0782\/2921\/files\/trench-court-ceinture-a-col-contrastant-01.jpg?v=1788799069","url":"https:\/\/sqoch.fr\/en-gb\/products\/trench-court-ceinture-a-col-contrastant","provider":"SQOCH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
