While fads frequently falter, the reliable trench coat is timeless.

From classic tan with a buckle centerpiece to more modern renditions featuring wool and plaid, it’s an unstoppable outwear piece to parade in during the fall and winter months. Not to mention, it’s a coat that’ll actually keep you warm.

Trench coats have been around for centuries — and, through all the transitioning trends, it’s been a tried-and-true wardrobe staple. Pair it with a bodysuit or back-to-office dress as you waltz through taxis and lines of commuters. Or, wear it with one of your favorite jeans for a classic look.

Whichever way you style it, a trench coat should be hanging in your closet. Not to mention, if you invest upwards of $500 — even triple that — it’s a mighty investment indeed (you’ll be wearing it for a few more decades to come, we’ll promise you that).

Not to mention, some of our favorite places to shop for trench coats include Nordstrom and Amazon, though we offer many others to choose from below.
