Men’s trench coats that never date
The trench coat began as military clothing and is now a staple of the smart wardrobe. Compare men’s trench coats in stone, navy and black, with belts, storm flaps and double-breasted fronts. Follow the link to the retailer that sells the style you like, and check the product page for length and fabric. The classic features include epaulettes, a gun flap and a wide collar, each of which adds structure and helps keep the wind from your neck.
Black mac and trench overcoat styles
A black trench raincoat gives a sharper, more formal look than the classic beige. A mac coat may be single-breasted and cleaner in line, which works over a suit. Cotton gabardine and coated fabrics shed showers, and a removable lining adds winter warmth. For both men and women across every shape, see our trench coats. The mac coat is a lighter, cleaner cousin of the trench, and a short trench is easy to wear with jeans if you prefer something relaxed.
How to wear a men’s trench coat
Wear it open for a relaxed look, belted for definition or with the collar up on a blustery day. It works over a suit, a jumper and chinos, or even a hoodie. Knee length is the classic, giving good coverage without looking heavy. For a ladies equivalent, see women’s trench coats, which share the same timeless pattern. Smart shoes or boots finish the look, and a scarf adds warmth and colour on cooler days, particularly through the unpredictable British spring.
Choosing a trench coat size and lining
A trench should sit comfortably over a suit jacket, so allow space across the chest and shoulders. Sleeves can be a touch long, as the belted cuffs are meant to be adjusted. Look for a zip-out liner if you want a coat for three seasons. Hang it up between wears and brush it to keep the fabric crisp. Take care with the belt and cuffs, which are often removable, and check that all buttons and loops are fastened securely before wearing.
