Corazzo Australia Corazzo Ladies Trench Coat - $299
“A thoroughly liberated woman,” was how a villainous character described “Mrs. Peel” in the 60s British TV show The Avengers. As it turns out, the actress who played her was just as liberated. When Diana Rigg found out she was making less money than the cameraman, she threatened to quit.
Mrs. Peel pilots a Vespa/Douglas Sportique 150 during her premiere episode — with her partner John Steed sitting sidesaddle! One of TV’s first feminist heroines indeed.
Oh, but have we forgotten to mention her incredible mod wardrobe? It was almost a character in itself: black leather cat suits, a-line dresses, kinky boots, and yes, occasionally, a trench coat.
Our trench would have suited her well. Not least of all because of its discreet, removable armor in the shoulders, elbows and back. In fact, you could call this a “technical trench” thanks to its breathable fabric, zippered vents and water and abrasion resistance.
Under its proper, double-breasted front lies a sneaky off-center zipper so there’s no unsightly “stacking” of clothing. The belt is tipped in 3M reflective fabric that appears white in light and is held in place by nice wide loops — nothing fiddly here. And the flattering above the knee cut is perfect to show off a pair of your own kinky boots.
One last thing – our trench is available in every color . . . as long as it’s black.

Corazzo Messenger Bag - $89.95
The fastest thing in most cities is not the Porsche wielding stockbroker or the Desmosedici riding banker.
It’s the under-appreciated but essential bicycle messenger.
Here’s an amazing fact: really experienced messengers will make an average of 30 deliveries a day. All the while risking their skin slipping through traffic. So we doff our Campagnolo caps and offer up this salute: the nicest messenger bag Corazzo has ever made.
The fabric is well, there’s no word really to describe it but . . . sumptuous. But perhaps more importantly to the rider, it’s supremely tough and water resistant. And since any transportation on two wheels is a dangerous proposition, we’ve made our bag as safe as any bag can be.
There’s a nice thick reflective 3M stripe that runs the full width of the bag. The flap can be closed with Velcro or buckles or both. Padded corduroy inserts help cushion anything you deem important, say your laptop or that top-secret dossier. And there’s the cushioned, adjustable shoulder strap that gives you the option of wearing the bag across your back or chest.
Finally, there’s a number of pockets throughout — including a mesh pocket with a key toggle, 3 elastic pen pockets, and a divider for the main interior.
All in all, we’ve made a messenger bag so nice the stockbrokers and bankers will want one too.
