The Top Men's Trench Coats
The trench coat is the most storied outerwear piece in men's fashion — its double-breasted front, belted waist, and epaulets were designed for WWI British officers and adapted by Burberry into the defining outerwear garment of the 20th century. A quality trench in tan cotton gabardine is simultaneously the most classic and most contemporary outerwear investment a man can make.
Why It's Trending
- The trench coat's perennial presence in fashion — worn by everyone from Humphrey Bogart to Kanye West — ensures its continuous relevance
- Contemporary interpretations from brands like Mackintosh, C.P. Company, and Aime Leon Dore have updated the silhouette without compromising its character
- The trench's versatility across formal and casual dressing makes it the highest-utility outerwear investment in any wardrobe
- Rainy season styling content consistently features the trench as the definitive answer to wet weather dressing
What to Look For
- 1Length matters significantly: knee-length is the most traditional; mid-thigh is more contemporary; above-knee edges into casual bomber territory
- 2Cotton gabardine is the traditional and most water-resistant natural material; polyester blends are cheaper but feel and age differently
- 3Belt the trench — a flopped-open trench coat looks shapeless; the belted waist is the defining proportional feature
- 4The collar should lie flat with the epaulets sitting correctly at the shoulder — try the trench on before buying, as collar fit is hard to assess otherwise
