The Long Wool Coats on Our Editors' Must-Have Lists
Is it just us, or do the winters seem to be getting colder and colder? It gets so frosty outside that sometimes we want to throw all our cares out the window and just run around in one of those head-to-toe puffer coats. For that very reason, we're delighted to report that there's one coat style you can rely on to keep you warm on those frigid days: the long wool coat.
At first thought, you may think this is quite the investment piece, but the style has come a long way, and there are now great options no matter your budget. Our editors went to great lengths (no pun intended) to find you the most fashionable long wool coats online. We may or may not have scooped up a coat of our own—just a danger of the job.
The beauty of this coat style is that you can wear it with just about every outfit. If you're going casual, throw it over a sweater, jeans, and cool sneakers. More polished? Try a long wool coat over a tailored blazer, a classic sweater, culottes, and ankle boots. The sky really is the limit here. Keep reading to shop our editors' top picks for the best long wool coats of the season. Your cold legs will thank you.
The perfect stepping stone between a trench coat and a wool coat.
If you want a cropped option, I highly suggest this one.
