This cotton trench is a perfect summer weight and is made from a fairly light cotton in a washed charcoal/black, and is similar to a soft shirting fabric.  It has an a-line shape and has a small belt should you wish to cinch the waist in a bit.  It has a button up front that has a concealed placket when closed.  There are side pocket and a half lining inside, again making it an ideal summer jacket.
