What Trench Coat Would You Guys Suggest For The Spring?

[Kash]

It's been a long time since I've visited these forums. However, with winter almost done and spring on the horizon, it looks like I need a jacket for the transitional period between the winter and summer.

I've been looking at trench coats and I feel it would be the best option for me. I'm looking to spend roughly around £100 but I'm willing to be flexible. I'd prefer the classic colours of beige, navy or black. It has to be double-breasted as well as being waist height. Im a large if anyone wants to know, however this exercise is just to nudge me in the right direction

I would also be open to different 'jacket' suggestions...

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

This example from Asos is quite striking, but still very versatile and not too much of a statement:

Don't rule out an alternative colour; khaki or blue would be great choices for the coming season, being on-trend but also wearable, seasonless colours.
If you're still after a beige or black, they do quite a few over on Asos.

If you're prepared to do a bit of detective work and up your budget to about £140, I think you could pick up a vintage Burberry. That would be my choice.

A shorter coat, above knee length, double breasted, preferable in blue, however beige, black, and slate grey are also fine. I have a beige trench and though it is the right length, I really lament its single breasted nature, not that it is a bad coat, it is quite well made. I have to get it tailored, though, it has become a little big for me, or at least for my tastes.

That looks nice and is a decent price but I'd prefer something waist height since I'm going to be wearing this to college and the casual day out.

I would get Burberry but I'm looking for a waist height jacket and hence Burberry wouldn't be my choice unless I bought new. I'm not going to spend £500 on a jacket haha.

I think this mac from Asos would be great, could be worn both casually and formally and matches all your requirements. i think navy is the best colour to get as it doesn't stand out too much and gives you a lot more versatility as to what you can wear it with.
