In search of the perfect winter pick me up? Look no further than the season’s most exciting trench coats, that will have you wishing for spring’s long-awaited arrival more than ever. After months of puffers, faux furs, and wool wraps, a lightweight rain-ready jacket is just the ticket for getting into the spring mood.

The majority of the spring 2020 collections included a riff on the classic trench coat—quite possibly because these double-breasted silhouettes are both timeless and practical for an unpredictable transitional weather season. But the trenches that debuted on the runways last September weren’t your standard beige toppers; instead, they were completely reimagined, with artful details like leather or check paneling, pleated and ruffled bodices, or even reconstructed with detachable skirts, side button details, open slit sleeves, and double lapels.

Here shop, 13 contemporary takes on spring’s outerwear essential, at every price.
