With fall in full swing and winter on the horizon, it's safe to say that it's time to get serious about my outerwear game. There are plenty of chic trends this season, but I'm particularly looking for sumptuous and sophisticated styles that fit within my budget. In short, I want an expensive-looking coat without the expensive price tag.
I turned to all my favorite retailers, including Zara, Mango, H&M, COS, and more—which always stock the best affordable winter coats every season—and spent the afternoon scrolling through hundreds of product pages of outerwear to bring you 33 of my absolute favorite styles—all under $300. From long wool coats to scarf coats and shearling styles, keep scrolling to get inspired if you're looking for a chic and affordable coat this season.
