I Searched Through 100s of Elegant Navy Coats—These 33 Stood Out to Me the Most

I ask myself the same question at the start of every winter: Do I really need to buy a new coat? Although I already have a few winter coats, this year, I think my capsule wardrobe could benefit from something a little different but no less classic than those I own, so I’m on the hunt for the most elegant of them all: a navy coat.

As someone passionate about outerwear, I’m well-versed in finding the best of the best to see me through the cooler period whilst also guaranteeing that any outfit will look that much chicer. Whether it's a "jeans and a nice top" vibe, my cosiest loungewear or a sleek look for a day in the office, any coat I wear has to elevate my attire for any occasion, day or night.

When shopping for new outerwear, there's a lot to consider. Will it go with pieces I already own—different lengths, styles and colours? What’s the material like? Will it wear well in different conditions? Is the cut classic enough to be at home in my wardrobe for years to come? Basically, I want my coat to work hard and stand the test of time.

But back to navy. Although we can probably agree that chocolate brown and rich burgundy are the colours of the season, classic navy blue is the underdog; a colour so versatile that it can easily be styled with the overall colour palette we’ve seen so far this season.

From high-street to designer and wool styles to trusty trenches, below are my favourite navy coats available to shop right now, so you don't have to do the research.
