Desperately seeking a khaki/olive trench...

Apart from one at Jigsaw, anyone come across a khaki-coloured trench on their travels? I had the Jigsaw one and it gave up the ghost after a couple of years. Would love a Burberry one but cannot justify the cost and not sure if a visit to the outlet would be fruitful (I'm an online shopper as getting out is difficult right now).

I'm drowning in stone-coloured ones! They can't be that unusual, can they!

Saw only an FC trench on TK Maxx, but it might be an option. Thanks all for the suggestions so far, but Want a more traditional, mac-style trench. Want Burberry quality but have only a Jigsaw-esque budget!!

I didn't think any of them would quite hit the mark.. You're right - not a lot about!

Loads of stone-coloured ones about, but want something a bit different but still in that Autumn palette.

if you have one that is mainly cotton and you are willing to try dyeing it in the washing machine, you might be delighted and get hooked on dyeing like i am!

Higge - I love that too! I thought I'd searched everywhere but I did not see that one and, Sod's law, the only size sold out is a 12, I could weep!

I will try a couple of stores. I would love love the voucher in case it comes back in stock online

Thanks so much!

Also, if I had one in another colour I loved I wouldn't have thought of dyeing. Have had success in the past but not tried for a long time

Just checked the email - 20% discount is automatically added at checkout. My dyeing adventures ended in failure, the head remained white.Sad

Ah yes they are offering me that on the website homepage. Have emailed customer service as they say they can track Down sizes. Have you seen it in the flesh?
