As a side-effect of being an "Army brat" (gah, I hate that phrase--I was not a brat...), I have an affinity for the military-issued trenchcoats (and I still heart uniforms).

The flowy fashion trenchcoats are pretty, but if made just to be pretty, a bit uncomfortable sometimes, and not functional worth a damn.

I have my mom's old one, partly for sentimental value, and mostly because it comes very much in handy during the schizo fall/winter season combo in Illinois...
