Men's coats: trench coats, overcoats and parkas

Men's coats

Pre-owned men's coats, from the belted trench coat and the car coat to wool overcoats, duffle coats and parkas.

Trench coats and car coats

The classic trench coat is double-breasted, with a belt, shoulder straps and a storm flap, and it is usually made from cotton gabardine. A single-breasted version with concealed buttons is cleaner at the front and sits easily over a suit jacket. The car coat is shorter, ends around mid-thigh and has no belt, so it works over a jumper or a sweatshirt. Trench coats from one brand have their own page, Burberry trench coats.

Overcoats, duffle coats and peacoats

An overcoat is a longer coat in wool or a wool blend, cut to be worn over a jacket and usually ending at the knee. The duffle coat has a hood and closes with toggles, and the peacoat is a short, double-breasted coat in heavy wool with wide lapels. Wool overcoats from one brand are collected under Burberry overcoats.

Parkas

A parka is a long, hooded coat for cold weather, filled with down or a synthetic insulation and often finished with a fur or faux-fur trim on the hood. Parkas from one brand are on Canada Goose parkas, and the comparison of winter jackets sets several brands side by side.

Size and measurements

A coat is worn over other layers, so a coat for over a suit jacket needs more room across the chest than a coat for over a shirt. The method is explained in the guide to measuring pit to pit.

Shorter styles are under men's jackets and vests, and coats for everyone are under coats. Men's coats by brand are on the pages for Burberry and Canada Goose, the Burberry guide covers the history of the trench coat, and the women's range is under women's coats.
