Winter has been here for a lil while and I'm still the girl scrounging the internet for more iconic outerwear to slay these chilly streets. Ya see, I am the queen of coats. I enjoy having fun with different silhouettes, textures, colors, and encouraging others (read: you) to do the same. Even if you don't usually venture into styles that are out of your comfort zone, it's still v important to find a coat that speaks most to you. And it's imperative to find one that keeps you warm, which is why we're here to discuss the very best wool coats.
Here's the thing about wool: The material is naturally protective (and super warm) so it's basically the perfect ingredient for coziness. There are also levels to this wool thang: You can find coats with a mix of wool and other materials or they can be straight up 100 percent wool. Quick head's up, though: The higher percentage of wool in your coat, the more expensive it'll be. (On the plus side, you'll also be more insulated from the elements.) Whether you're a lazy dresser, you're into chill vibes, or you're always getting dolled up, I've rounded up the best options that make sense for your wallet and personal style right here.

Double-Breasted Jacket
This short, double-breasted option will surprise you in the best way.
Rave Review: "The shorter length navy double breasted jacket is absolutely adorable on! I got it to go with my long, navy satin skirt and navy satin pants, and it looks great with both. I love it with jeans, as well. It’s true-to-size, a little bit relaxed, and the back of the coat has a nice little swing to it. What I like is that it’s not too short to show your belly. It comes below your waist just enough to look good. Think I’ll order the black as well."
Wool-Blend Plaid Long Belted Shacket
Shacket-lovers, unite! Now, you can live your cold seasons in this plush, plaid beaut.
Rave Review: "Such a cute coat!!! Love it! I’ve gotten so many compliments! I would definitely buy it if you’re thinking about it!"
Wool Scarf Coat in Mid Gray
Behold! A scarf-coat. We love easy solutions!
Wool Blend Houndstooth Print Double Breasted Coat
Okay, so all of the reviews are in German but they're mostly five star! Safe to say, this houndstooth print pick is a winner.
Belted Longline Wool Mix Coat in cream
BRB, currently imagining all of the monochromatic madness I can pull off in this cream dream.
Pinstripe Wool Coat
IDK about you but this. Is. A. Lewk. I'd def wear it with the matching mini skirt.
Faux Fur Collar Coat
Add a lil razzle dazzle with a wool blend coat featuring a fab, faux fur collar. It's the luxe look you need for those days you need extra flair.
Alma Plaid Coat
This yellow-plaid, single-breasted beaut will def brighten up those bleak cold-weather days ahead.
Gray Wool Coat
You'll be like the cool kids with this structured, all-over logo, piece of art. It's selling F-A-S-T, btw!
Wonderwall Coat
The apple-picking farms are practically calling your name with this fully lined, faux fur find! Ha, try saying that three times fast!
Rave Review: "This coat is so comfortable and warm! It has long enough sleeves that my wrists are covered and it fits beautifully. I love the look of the clasps and the pockets (perfect for keeping my hands warm). Everyone has commented on the color and style! Love love love it!"
Camo Cardigan
If you're in your low-key/under-the-radar bag, then you should totally go for this muted camo option.
Wool-Blend Cape
Effortlessness has a new name: it's her. The cape design is everything you never knew you needed.
Walk This Way Wool Blend Oversized Coat
Oh hey, shawl collar. She looks like she would say, "dahhling" if she could, right? Giving off luxe realness is easy when you pair this coat with a cashmere sweater, leather trousers, and heeled booties.
Rave Review: "I love this coat. It's lightweight and has no inner lining but it's still warm. Very classy design. This is the second one I bought! For reference I am 5’4 148 lbs and I purchased a size small."
Houndstooth Check Coat
Cozy up with a classic turtleneck, trousers, and this cute houndstooth-patterned long coat. The slightly oversized fit is so on trend RN and it'll be a staple in your work closet for sure!
Rave Review: "I was searching for a men’s style brown houndstooth coat that didn’t make me look boxy. I’m 5’4,” curvy, and 3 months postpartum. It's definitely the old school '80s look I was going for so I'm very happy with my purchase!"
The Gianna Coat in Insuluxe Fabric
Leave your haters in the dust with this boss coat that's comfy, stylish, super warm and water and wind resistant.
Rave Review: "This coat ticks all the boxes for what I was looking for—it's oversized, warm and stylish. If you’re looking for tailored and fitted, this is not your coat. It totally hits the mark on cool, Scandi vibes though. I am 5’9, 150 lbs, broad shoulders, and a solid size 6. Based on prior reviews, I ordered a 4 and still have plenty of room for layers underneath. It hits halfway between my knees and ankles, so it's probably not a great option for the more petite gals. But tall, long-armed girls? You’re in luck."
Villa Coat in Italian Stadium-Cloth
Wait. How cute is this burgundy bb? It has a relaxed fit, a dramatic collar, so many colors available (!!), and my heart. Okay, maybe not my heart, but definitely my attention.
Rave Review: "I ordered the vivid burgundy villa coat and the color is perfect for the holidays! I like the brown buttons down the front with the red and I love how the collar is folded down on both sides instead of up around my neck. It stays that way well/does not need to be constantly adjusted (a great way to show off a necklace or scarf). The villa coat in size 4 fits me almost exactly like the cocoon in size 8. The fabric and construction of the coat are consistent with J.Crew's previous stadium cloth wool coats. This one is great for our Texas winters:). I can't wait to wear my new red coat for holiday outings!"
Varsity Bomber in Wool and Suede
This bomber just screams "on a mission." That deep green is such a powerful hue and that high collar is definitely a nice touch.
The Italian ReWool® Long Peacoat
If you were looking for something to layer over everything effortlessly, this is the style for you. Plus, it's good for the planet (it's made of recycled wool).
Rave Review: "This coat keeps me surprisingly warm! I was hesitant with the polyester lining but it doesn't affect heat regulation and polyester usually does for me. I wish it was roomier around my waist/butt but if I sized up it would have been too long and too big everywhere else. The buttons still close comfortably though! I've made every excuse to wear this so far in the week or so I've had it."
Maren Coat
Into art? Then, you'll be into this. This coat made of Italian virgin wool has a high cocoon-like neckline, a two-way zipper that falls diagonally, and an asymmetrical bottom hem. You'll look like a layering pro thanks to the unique cuts.
Rave Review: "Wowowow! This is by far my favorite coat I have ever owned! It's unique, stylish, and super high quality. I will 100% order from Marcella again. Even the packaging was well done with care. Can't say enough good things."
Acre Robe
Prepare to envelop yourself in the luxe robe of your dreams. What we love: It's hooded, the belt is removable, and it's made of plush merino wool. Basically, it's exactly what you need in your fall closet.
Rave Review: "This is an amazing wrap around coat! Soft boiled wool. I have two- one in bone and one in black. Best coat ever
Double-Breasted A Line Wool Trench Coat Jacket
Only the bravest wear white coats—major points if that's you! This one is lined, has brassy gold buttons, and is pretty much like wearing a dress that begs for a twirl. Don't worry, it comes in other colors, too in case the white has you worried!
