It’s officially coat season, and there’s one coat in particular that shoppers (myself included) have fallen head over heels in love with — not just for its chic design, but it’s affordable price tag. Say hello to Sainsbury’s Wool-Look Trench Coat, £45.
My go-to coat for autumn, I’ve loved styling it with a pair of jeans and basic top for a casual look, and have even worn it on evenings out with friends teamed with a midi dress, so can validate its versatility.
Designed with a classic trench-style silhouette that’s slightly more relaxed, it’s perfect for throwing over when you’re in a rush, but still want to look put-together.
Originally available in three neutral colours: brown, olive green and grey, it has proven so popular with shoppers that the green colourway has since sold out, leaving a limited amount of stock on the remaining shades.

💸 Reasons to buy
The current bestseller in coats and jackets at Tu Clothing, I was surprised to even get my hands on this trench-style coat after seeing it go viral on TikTok, with various creators dubbing it the coat of the season. Available in a range of easy-to-wear colours, it was the actual quality of this design that I was most taken aback by — it doesn’t just look expensive, it feels expensive.
Made from a heavy, wool-like blend of fabrics, it drapes beautifully towards the bottom and the smart classic collar, waist belt and tortoiseshell buttons give the coat a simple yet refined overall feel.
I’m a lot shorter than the models pictured on-site, but even at 5ft 4 I loved the length on me. The coat hits perfectly just below my calves, for a chic, longline style.
After reading multiple reviews describing the coat as oversized, I went with a size 10 (I’m usually between a size 10 and 12) and I’m glad I did — the cut is definitely more relaxed, making it an ideal choice for the colder weather when you want to wear chunky knits underneath.
✋ Reasons to avoid
At just £45, this coat is unbelievable value, and I’m surprised there’s even stock available. Quality-wise, it’s brilliant, and I love the shape and fit, so there’s nothing I could possibly fault.
Obviously, it’s not waterproof, but for an everyday autumn coat, it’s ideal.
