The Today Show Finds Trench Coats For $100 or Less

A trench coat is a wardrobe essential.  When I see people replacing their heavy winter coats with a lighter trench coat, it starts to feel like Spring.  It's outerwear that travels well and looks smart.  Waterproof and layered enough to protect you from the chill of a strong wind, trench coats come in many styles including loose, belted and double-breasted.  They can be buttoned, zipped or snapped closed.  Understated or patterned, there is also an array of colors and embellishments.

I must give a shout out to the The Today Show for featuring 9 selections all $100 or less.  I will add two more retailers to their list, Lands' End – for unbeatable quality, style and prices for men, women and children.  Outerwear from LE is durable, multi-pocketed and usually machine washable too.  And London Fog, a company which has been making polished, affordable, well-made raincoats for over 60 years.

Treach coat, $100
BKE doubled coat, $90
Old Navy twill coat, $43
Black Rivet army coat, $90
Wallis cotton coat, $70
Bubble coat, $50
Black Rivet trench coat, $50
Chiffon trench coat, $70
Gap coat, $80

Thank you to the Today Show.  Wilsons Leather is a nice discovery.  Trench coats are so practical, you can wear them nearly all year around.
