Well, first of all, that’s not a trench coat.

It depends on your budget. Here’s one from O’connells.

You could call it a car coat though it does come a bit lower. The traditional car coat ends around mid thigh. It’s too short to be a great coat, polo coat or an overcoat.

it’s sort of a hybrid. It’s definitely not a trench coat as it lacks the details necessary.

Never did I think I’d see the words “skimpy” and “Ulster” used together.

Surprised “skimpy” got any response. Would make those lapels at least 1.5” wider.
They would still be more narrow that crispie’s Shattuck jackets.
