Short or mid-length coat: how should men choose?

The men's short coat is the most versatile and casual version of the Trench & Coat outerwear collection. Cut above or at mid-thigh, it is just as easy to wear over jeans as it is over a more relaxed pair of suit trousers, making it the go-to everyday piece for the man who wants to dress well without overcomplicating his life. Its shorter cut compared to the mid-length coat gives it a more dynamic silhouette, designed for urban use.

Styles range from straight-cut, overcoat-inspired designs to shorter, more casual jackets. The models are crafted with functional details: tailored or shirt collars, zip or button fastenings, patch or piped pockets and, depending on the model, interior pockets.

Our men's short coats by material and pattern

Our men's short coats come in several materials: virgin wool for warmth and structure, or checked wool for a bolder, casual-chic look.

Virgin wool is a preferred material for its density, structure, and ability to withstand cold seasons. The wool fabrics are available in solid or checked versions, with different textures and constructions depending on the model.

For more formal wear, turn to our men's mid-length coat; to brave the rain, complete your wardrobe with a men's raincoat. Find the full selection on our men's coats page.

FAQ

Can a men's short coat be worn for any occasion?

Yes, that is its main quality: worn over jeans, it is suitable for everyday, casual use; worn over suit trousers, it remains appropriate for dressier occasions, provided you choose a sober color.

What size should I choose for a men's short coat?

Consult the size guide on each product page to check the length and chest measurement, taking into account the layers worn underneath (sweater, jacket).

What material should I choose for a men's short coat?

Virgin wool is particularly suitable for cold seasons thanks to its density and structure. For lighter use or in wet weather, cotton or a water-repellent material will be more appropriate.

Short coat or jacket: what is the difference?

The short coat generally retains a more structured construction and a longer, more covering length. The jacket is shorter and favors a construction inspired by casual wear.
