LONDON FOG

London Fog's khaki design comes complete with epaulettes and a longer fit. Considering the quality, it's a steal at under $100, and even has a fully water-resistant finish so it can double as a rain jacket.
NSF

If you're willing to shell out a bit more money for an investment piece, keep it classic with this double-breasted take by NSF. It can be buttoned all the way up or tied at the waist, and is made from 100% cotton for a softer finish that gives it a slouchy, more casual feel.
Orolay
Maybe you live somewhere where cozy outerwear is less of a seasonal necessity (L.A, we're looking at you)—in that case, we'd opt for this lightweight trench. It has a detachable belt and adjustable wristbands, so you can tailor the fit to your liking.
VIA SPIGA
It's all in the details where this mini option is concerned: A detachable hood and pleated hem set it above the rest. “I took it with me on a 2 week vacation to Ireland and Amsterdam and it held up great in the rain. I can say firsthand I walked through heavy rain for 20 minutes and it kept me dry," writes one reviewer.
Acler
saksfifthavenue.com
It's pricey, but Acler's high-quality design is made for those who take their coat collection seriously and are on the hunt for a statement item to add to the mix. We love the textured two-tone design, which, along with the frilly front button gunflap (you can button it all the way up in wind or rain for better protection) make it stand out.
Makkrom
Makkrom's double-breasted trench comes in 12 colors, from timeless neutrals to vivid hues like yellow and this rosy pink. It's also super affordable, with reviewers noting that it looks more expensive than it actually is.
Amazon Essentials
This Amazon best-seller has two front pockets for storing small essentials while you run errands. It's made from a water-repellant cotton blend, and has a heavier weight to it that anyone from a chilly climate will definitely appreciate.
Lark & Ro
amazon.com
Throw out the rulebook with this buttonless, wrap-style trench. It has a fabric belt for an easily adjustable closure, and is overall a softer option than most trench coats. Word to the wise: Some reviewers note that it arrives wrinkled, but promise that it'll look crisp and hold its shape after a quick initial steam.
Rachel Roy
We know, we know: White outerwear isn't the most practical, but if you're on the hunt for a coat specifically for special occasions (versus an everyday option), this Rachel Roy design fits the bill. The sleeve ties are a fun detail; plus, just in case you do end up spilling on it, it's fully machine-washable.
Jessica London
amazon.com
Between the long silhouette and chic black color, this water-resistant trench is ultra stylish. It comes with a detachable hood for versatility, and is fully lined—just note that reviewers write that if you do want to wear it in truly frigid weather over bulky layers, size up to accomodate your favorite knits.
