Who makes a stylish, water-resistant jacket (of good length) to wear with a suit or business casual attire? Looking for one for dark colored attire (black, charcoal grey, navy blue, etc) and one for light colors (browns, khaki, light grey, etc).

Try the brand Sanyo -- and I don't mean the electronics company. Simple, clean, stylish.

My buddy has a Sutherland Trenchcoat from JCrew and likes it. I have the wool version and it fits nicely. They used to carry it in black but I've only seen it in grey and khaki for the past 6 months or so.

Barbour Beaufort. This British company is over 150 years old. While only recently becoming popular in the US, it is not a trend. People in Europe have been wearing these forever. Designed for the English country life but definitely works to dress down a suit.
They are expensive but they are a long lasting, always in style jacket you can pass on to your son or grandson. Waterproof, long enough to cover your suit jacket or sportcoat. Can add zip in liners for extra warmth. There are longer versions if you need longer length.
