Top 10 Long Coats
For The Perfect Winter Coat, Look No Further Than These Classic Styles
We’ll come right out and say it: Just because a piece of clothing has a function to serve doesn’t mean it can’t also be aesthetically pleasing. Whether it’s your go-to pair of leggings or your trusty winter boots, you can infuse some stylishness into even the most practical of outfits (exhibit A: Gigi Hadid’s gym style).
Take winter coats, for example. Unless you live directly on the equator, you probably need at least one coat that will keep you warm on the coldest winter days. Why not make sure that coat is one that you love to wear?
We want to make sure your next coat purchase is completely free of buyer’s remorse (more like buyer’s rejoice), which is why we rounded up a list of the 10 best winter coats on the internet right now.
How We Found The Best Long Coats
Our data-driven approach to finding and ranking the best products out there factors in best-seller lists, user reviews, editorial mentions, and social buzz—so you can trust that you’re truly getting unbiased, science-backed recommendations.
Some people say that winter fashion is not as fun as the other seasons’ garb, and to them, we counter with this: Have you seen these coats? Keep scrolling if you’re ready to fall in love with winter fashion.

THE MAXI COAT
WHY IT MADE THE LIST: At 49" long, this is nearly a floor-length coat. And because it’s made out of wool and single-breasted, it’s polished enough that it won't look out of place thrown over a party dress for formal occasions.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS: You can purchase this coat in rich camel or sleek black. It has slit pockets in the front to keep your hands cozy, and it's lined for extra warmth.

THE WRAP COAT
WHY IT MADE THE LIST: Comfort is as important as style when it comes to winter coats. Gentle Herd understands that, which is why they created a Softness Scale that ranks their products’ coziness factor. This overcoat landed itself at a promising “very soft” on the softness scale.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS: Made out of 100% wool, this jacket features a wrap closure, front slit pockets, and a dropped shoulder silhouette. It’s available in six sizes and two neutral colors.

THE FLATTERING COAT
WHY IT MADE THE LIST: If you’re in the mood to ball out on a winter coat, add this one to your shortlist—it’s got everything you could want and more. It’s double-breasted, and it has princess seams on both sides, a back waist belt, and a notch collar with a felt underlining.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS: In true J.Crew fashion, they’ve embraced color by designing this coat in a head-turning shade: Burnished Barn. But if neutrals are more your style, it’s also available in black.

THE CLASSIC CAMEL COAT
WHY IT MADE THE LIST: Mango designs elevated everyday apparel, and we think this double-breasted coat might be one of their best pieces yet. And if you don’t think so too, you probably haven’t seen the back slit hem yet.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS: This winter coat is made from a wool blend, is lined, has two pockets (with very cute flaps), and buttoned cuffs. It’s available in a medium brown or black color.

THE SPLURGE-WORTHY COAT

ADDITIONAL DETAILS: There are two stunning neutral tones to choose from with this wool-blend coat: camel and navy.

THE MINIMALIST COAT
WHY IT MADE THE LIST: We’ve never laid eyes on a Reformation design we didn’t instantly love, and that certainly rings true when it comes to this coat. The relaxed structure, shawl collar, and waist belt give it an effortlessly chic look—just layer it over your favorite jeans and sweater and call it good.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS: Once again, you can choose from your favorite neutrals: black, camel, or olive. Also, this coat has two front slit pockets and is unlined for maximum breathability.
