We all want one. We all have the same thoughts about why we don’t have one.

But we feel if we stay away from this gun metal grey color, we’re in the clear. Because if you consider yourself someone with “classic” style, the sort of unbothered chicness a trench brings is unmatched in this world. Throw it on over jeans and a t-shirt and flats or all black or quite honestly anything and you’re instantly pulled together. There’s about 14,798 to choose from, but we did our due diligence and found 6 of the best ones you can possibly buy.
1. The Classic One
WHAT: Banana Republic Factory Timeless Trench Coat*
Why we love it: The shape, the fit, it’s all perfect. And though the classic color is tan* we also love it in black.
Price: $115
2. The French One
WHAT: Sézane Clyde Coat*
Why we love it: We are sick for the interior check pattern on this one. And the quality of this French brand is unmatched. And dark green is achingly gorgeous. And it’s in our cart presently.
Price: $350
3. The Splurgey One
WHAT: Favorite Daughter The Charles Trench*
Why we love it: We are helpless for stripes, and a striped trench coat feels like a stacked classic on classic in a ways we can justify this investment—we will never not love it and we will never not wear it.

4. The Arconia One

5. The Short One
WHAT: Aritzia The Esquire Trench Coat*
Why we love it: We write incessantly about how the crop is the over-40 gal’s best friend, and with a TRENCH?! Breathless.

WHAT: Quince Comfort Stretch Long Trench Coat*
Why we love it: This one is gorgeous and perfect and a superb price. It also comes in regular* and short*.
