There is no shortage of variety in coat styles when the yearly chill arrives; there's camel toppers, wrap silhouettes, and statement overcoats galore. But one classic that is often overlooked? The classic herringbone—a staple in traditional British dressing—has a zig-zag pattern which resembles the skeleton of a herring (hence the name) and is a wonderful weave that gives a touch of texture and color without an overly loud statement. In other words, a must for a timeless wardrobe. Here, we give 15 options to add into your coat rotation for a bit of polish.

Crombie Coat

A generous—dare we say perfect?—silhouette for layering, this boyish fit is the choice to pair with chunky knits.

Size Range: XS-L

Herringbone Town-To-Country Coat

Designed to have two possible necklines (depending on how you button) this relaxed gray topper's name really does fit: it's wearable in town and country. Bonus: it has really big pockets.

Size Range: US 2-12

Double-Breasted Herringbone Coat

With signature Ralph Lauren details and sleek tailoring, this warm-toned option is great for everyday sophistication. The double-breast and peak lapels add a touch of masculine edge, while waist darts and princess seams lend to a feminine silhouette. The best of both worlds, we say.
