\t\t\t\tWith April showers approaching, it\u2019s time for the return of the trench coat, the quintessential spring must-have<\/a>. Not too heavy, not too light (dare we say, just right<\/em>?), and typically made from water-repellant and wind-resistant fabrics, trenches are the outerwear of choice<\/a> for transitional weather. While knee- and calf-length jackets are always a wise wardrobe investment<\/a>, this season, a new crop of, well, cropped styles are trending.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rather than a traditional, longline trench coat, cropped styles are a bit boxier and often more casual, offering a modern twist on a classic staple. From chic khaki and green options to unique silhouettes and fabrics, like cape jackets<\/a> and denim iterations<\/a>, there are plenty of styles to peruse.<\/p>\n

Read on to pluck out a sporty design for long walks, a lady-like style for work and al fresco dinners, or a versatile jacket that can do it all.<\/p>\n

Khaki Cropped Trench Coats<\/h2>\n

Khaki-colored coats are a tried-and-true trench style that will forever work. Thanks to the neutral colorway that goes with almost everything, it\u2019s also the easiest style. Consider the various shades of khaki (sand, camel, etc.) to find the one that best suits you. Then look out for details like double-breasted closures for a touch of distinction.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Green Cropped Trench Coats<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re looking for neutral outerwear that\u2019s versatile, but still stands out from a sea of trenches, consider going green. Think olive, moss, sage, or, of course, khaki green. With a wide range of light and deep hues \u2014 plus streamlined and utility-inspired silhouettes \u2014 you can find the style that\u2019ll complement your spring wardrobe.<\/p>\n

Unique Cropped Trench Coats<\/h2>\n

Step out of the box with a short trench (or trench-inspired jacket) that doesn\u2019t play by the traditional rules. Maybe that means opting for a denim fabric (instead of classic cotton gabardins), or for fresh details like dainty cut-outs, dramatic collars, and cinching belts.<\/p>\n
