Performance Trench - Obsidian Black
Lightweight Performance, Classic Style
When crafting our Performance Trench, fabric selection was paramount. We sought a material that would keep you completely dry and shielded from the wind while also providing comfort and breathability in a classic natural look. Crucially, it had to be supremely lightweight, packable and wrinkle resistant. Our solution: an ultra premium three-layer Ecostretch fabric, sourced from recycled materials and crafted in Austria, OEKO-TEX® certified - a lightweight, wrinkle-resistant, waterproof marvel.
Laser-Cut Precision Meets Handcrafted Artistry
Crafted in Portugal from our lightweight three-layer Ecostretch material, each section undergoes meticulous laser-cutting for a precise fit before expert hand sewing, heat-bonding and seam sealing to guarantee superior waterproof protection and durability. A perfect balance of traditional craftsmanship and cutting-edge materials and manufacturing.
Ditch the Bulky Layers - Unfold and Go
Life on-the-go needs a coat that can keep up. Our Performance Trench transforms from a polished meeting layer to a travel-ready essential in seconds, folding neatly into its own sleek folio case. No more sacrificing style for function - simply unfold and go. The versatile folio also doubles as a travel case, offering storage for your essentials while seamlessly fitting into all our Émigré bags.
Signature Illustrations
We partnered with UK-based artist R. Fresson to create original illustrations for our apparel and travel bags. Drawing from early 20th century graphic arts and classic newspaper illustration, her art - featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, and Monocle - is a visual representation of the spirit that informs so much of the Émigré DNA: meaningful cultural exchange, a sense of time and place, and the birth of global business travel.
