Dating all the way back to the 1820s, the trench coat was created as a waterproof outer layer made from rubberized cotton. Since then, it has become a staple piece in most wardrobes.

It keeps you wrapped-up and warm while simultaneously keeping you dry and protected from damp weather, harsh fall winds, or winter snow. It wasn't until Humphrey Bogart wore a Burberry trench in Casablanca that men began to consider wearing one as well. By the time Breakfast at Tiffany's debuted in 1962, the trench coat was seen as classy and elegant. Although it hasn't changed much since, the staple outwear silhouette continues to be an icon of fashion and culture, with handfuls of fashion brands re-releasing different versions and interpretations of it every season.

A true investment piece, you can never go wrong with a good trench coat in your wardrobe, especially right now, with the cooler months ahead. Keep scrolling to shop the best options in luxury.
