We've had our share of school shooters use them to hide weapons, they are frowned upon unless you're a white chick with a pumpkin spice latte in hand.
I was just tossing a little goof out there. Glad you've got a great jacket! Nothing better than finding undeniably great product.

Isn’t that just matrix trench coats?
Like latex or “very-shiny-material-that’s-not leather-but-are-made-to-trick-you-in-to-think-it-is-leather” -trench coats?

Contrary to what many think they remember, Neo’s trench coat in the first film isn’t made of leather. It appears to be some matte tactical/performance material. Maybe even just cotton.
In fact, none of the outwear he wears in the original trilogy is leather. I don’t blame you for thinking that, though. Many of the other characters did have leather or leather-like coats.

In either case, Trinity’s pants were definitely painted on.

Excess material would hamper her performance and we must be grateful that never happened.

That's quite the belt setup Neo has there.

Yes pretty much. When I was a kid I loved the Matrix and me and my friends would all dress up im trench coats and play with Nerf guns or water guns. One of my neighbors called the cops on us because they thought we looked like the Columbine shooters.

Long as you're not sitting silently in the back of a high-school classroom, nobody cares if you're wearing a coat. Especially in the winter

I’m sure people here would be wearing them if they were as accessible to us as they are for Europeans. We have barely any good reproduction or surplus French coats in America, I’ve looked.
