This Abercrombie Trench Is $160, TikTok Famous, and Giving Serious The Row Vibes

Nearly an entire year ago, The Row's F/W 23 collection debuted, and in it, one specific item knocked me out, attached itself to my brain, and hasn't let me forget it since. It was a gray, midi-length trench coat worn buttoned but not belted alongside a matching button-down shirt, flat black ankle boots, and a cognac-colored duffle bag. I'm reciting this from memory—that's how strongly I feel about the look and, specifically, the trench coat. 

When the style, called the Avio Trench Coat, finally dropped six months later, I immediately added it to all of my usual wish lists and trackers so that I'd be the first to know if it ever made it to sale season. The coat costs $3450 full price, so even with a discount, I might not be able to swing it. That's why I perked up when I spotted another gray trench in a slew of TikTok videos centered around new Abercrombie & Fitch items. I've never been very good at waiting, and my mind is so stuck on gray trench coats that I won't be able to do anything at 100% until I've quelled these urges. Yes, I ordered the Abercrombie alt, and yes, you should do the exact same thing. 

Though I haven't received mine yet, TikTok is littered with enough positive reviews to put to rest any worries that it won't hit the spot. "It's giving Inspector Gadget chic," said @alychapss. "Loving this trench coat," another user, @otherangelawalters, wrote. Follow their lead by scrolling down and shopping the viral Abercrombie trench that's $160 and giving serious The Row vibes.
