A paletot is a type of topcoat. The name is French, but etymologically derived from the Middle English word Script error: No such module "Lang"., meaning a kind of jacket.[1]

Historically,[when?] it was a semi-fitted to fitted coat, double-breasted or single-breasted, the front sometimes fastened by a fly, with or without pleats, and with or without pockets. A modern paletot is a classic business overcoat, usually double-breasted with a 6×2 button arrangement, the top buttons placed wider apart and not fastened, with peaked lapels, a flat back and no belt. A paletot is often made of flannel or tweed in charcoal or navy blue.[2][3]
