The classic trench coat is considered one of winter’s most hard-working staples, but with the cold weather comes rainy days, meaning we’re going to have to ask even more from the style this season.

A wardrobe essential, a great trench can effortlessly elevate any cold-weather ensemble. Outside of looking chic, however, we’re looking to invest in a coat that can also keep us dry.

Trench coats crafted from nylon or polyester, both of which are water-resistant, are the best buys for beating the wet weather. Then, there are brands like Marks & Spencer who have developed Stormwear technology that can see a whole glasses of water roll right off their coats without leaving a mark.

Below, we round up our top picks for trench coats that will keep you cosy and dry this winter.

The Long Mac Coat, $260 at Everlane

In our opinion, the best trench coats are those that work as a transitional layer. That is, they’re lightweight enough to layer over heavy knits or a tee, look effortlessly chic with any ensemble and can take a little drizzle, all of which are found in this number from Everlane.
