15BadassLongcoat and WalkingShirtlessScene, two tropes that both represent the [[ManlyMan paragon of manliness]] and [[MrFanservice hotness]]. It might seem like the two are [[InherentInTheSystem fundamentally]] incapable of being [[JustForFun/XMeetsY combined]], but they can, as these brave men (and braver women) will show us below. This is a good way of showing off a CarpetOfVirility.

17[[DistaffCounterpart Spear Counterpart]] to NakedInMink. See also NavelDeepNeckline for when a character's neckline is so deep it reaches their abdomen. Compare and contrast BareMidriffsAreFeminine, a form of partial torso exposure that signifies femininity instead of masculinity.

22
23[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
24* The title character of ''Anime/BlackRockShooter''. With a black bra to cover up her breasts.
25* In ''Manga/Brave10'', [[WarriorMonk Seikai]] sports this look, which means his muscles are on constant display.
26* Alphard from ''Anime/{{Canaan}}''. Also, she's a girl, yet this manages not to feel like a NavelDeepNeckline.
27* Awaki Musujime from ''Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex'' is another girl who dresses like this, using {{Sarashi}} for her breasts. She actually takes it a step further and wears the coat as a CoatCape.
28* Colonel Silver in ''Manga/DragonBall'' sports the attire.
29* Kokojo in ''Anime/DuelMasters''. [[GagDub The dub]] mentions that because he didn't wear a shirt he got a pretty nasty sunburn. "[[SpoofAesop So always wear a shirt! It's just good sense!]]"
30%% Needs context * Ling from ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist''.
31* Goku in ''Manga/GokuMidnightEye'' wears no shirt with his black suit with tie.
32* ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'' has the Captain, though he ditches the coat as well, eventually.
33* ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'':
34** ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind Golden Wind]]'': Fugo does not wear a shirt under his jacket, only a necktie.
35** ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStoneOcean Stone Ocean]]'': Rikiel doesn't have any additional clothing beneath his's.
36* This is how ''Anime/KillLaKill'''s Aikuro Mikisugi goes about wearing labcoats. However, unlike other examples, pants are also absent from the ensemble, as is underwear. Uzu Sanageyama neglects to wear a shirt under his longcoat during his rematch with Ryuko, to show off his bandaged torso.
37* A few Cappies from ''Anime/KirbyRightBackAtYa'' do this with a waistcoat. There's also Rip from the biker gang in "Born to be Mild".
38* [[{{Delinquent}} Harry Tribeca]] of ''Manga/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaVivid'' is another female example. She has a {{Sarashi}} for the breasts.
39* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'':
40** Anko wears a jacket over a sort of skintight mesh shirt. She's also manlier than most of the men in the show.
41** Hidan has no shirt under his [[BlackCloak Akatsuki cloak]].
42** A, the Fourth Raikage, wears the traditional Kage white robe with no shirt underneath.
43%% Needs context * Jack Rakan from ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi''.
44* ''Manga/OnePiece'': [[SuperSmoke Captain Smoker]], though not really a longcoat, it's the same aesthetic.
45** Not just Smoker. [[AxCrazy Eustass Kid]], X. Drake, [[{{Gonk}} Blackbeard]], Mihawk... This is actually pretty common.
46** There's even a woman, Rindo of the Kuja Pirates, [[VaporWear who adopts a look like this]].
47** [[{{Cyborg}} Franky]] always has this look. Notable in how it's [[FemaleGaze one of the manly things]] ''not'' [[{{Parody}} parodied.]]
48** Luffy himself borders on this after [[spoiler:the timeskip.]]
49** [[spoiler:Law]] dons this outfit while [[spoiler:trying to be incognito within Dressrosa. What's odd is that he has a huge chest tattoo which is [[PaperThinDisguise obviously styled]] after his Jolly Roger/crew name.]]
50* In ''Manga/RurouniKenshin'', whenever Sanoske isn't like this he's shirtless.
51* Masami Eiri in ''Anime/SerialExperimentsLain''. With what appears to be a labcoat, no less.
52* [[MsFanservice Blair]] from ''Manga/SoulEater'' becomes this once she gets turned into a guy.
53* ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'': Kamina does it with a BadassCape, but the thought is the same. Simon as well, with an ''actual'' coat. Kamina's [[HighSchoolAU High-School alternate-universe]] counterpart plays this trope straight.
54* In ''Manga/{{Tokko}}'' there is Suzuka Kureha, who is an odd female example as she wears nothing underneath her leather jacket that covers up her breasts.
55* Kuwabara of ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'' wears this during the Dark Tournament. PlayedWith for Hiei. He never wears his jacket open but it appears in the first half of the show he doesn't wear a shirt under his jacket.
56[[/folder]]
57
58[[folder:Comic Books]]
59* ComicBook/{{Hellboy}} wears a trench coat and shorts, no shirt, showing off his muscular red torso.
60* Daimon Hellstrom of Marvel Comics -- at least in ''ComicBook/JourneyIntoMysteryGillen'', where his constant shirtlessness is a RunningGag. It does allow us to see the giant pentagram birthmark on his chest.
61* ''ComicBook/{{Raptors}}'': Both Drago and Aznar Akeba wear long leather trenchcoats (red and black respectively) without a shirt of any sort.
62* ''ComicBook/{{Sabretooth}}'' has sported this look on [[https://ic.pics.livejournal.com/silverfang2/29185537/1232252/1232252_900.png occasion]], this is just part of all his shirtless scenes.
63* In the ''ComicBook/SinCity'' story ''The Big Fat Kill'', the main character Dwight starts the story [[MaleFrontalNudity in the buff]] since he's over at his girlfriend's house where they are post-coital. Her ex-boyfriend comes over to start trouble and he has enough time to pull on a pair of pants and throw on [[BadAssLongcoat his long coat]] but [[MrFanservice does not wear a shirt under it]] Since the entire story [[ExtremelyShortTimespan takes place over the course of a single night]], he has this look throughout the miniseries.
64* [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel_dc/images/a/a7/Manchester_Black_001.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130505160218 Manchester Black]] in the ''ComicBook/{{Superman}}'' comic "What's So Funny About Truth, Justice, and the American Way?", as well as its animated adaptation, ''WesternAnimation/SupermanVsTheElite''. The man wears a full black trench coat and is shirtless, but he's got a full Union Jack tattooed on his chest that hides his shirtlessness.
65* ''ComicBook/{{Transmetropolitan}}'': Spider's iconic outfit (when he's not cavorting naked) includes wearing a black jacket over his otherwise bare upper body, showing off his lean frame and edgy tattoos. When he starts wearing shirts, it's [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness serious business]].
66* This is [[ComicBook/XMan Nate Grey's]] look during his return in the ''Dark X-Men'' miniseries, and like Hellstrom, it shows off his own distinctive mark, the X shaped genetic brand on his chest.
67[[/folder]]
68
69[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
70* ''Film/Barbie2023'': Ken puts on a long, oversized mink coat with no shirt underneath after [[spoiler:his hypermacho "patriarchy" infects Barbieland]]. The film notes that this look is patterned after men like Creator/SylvesterStallone doing the same, and it stands in contrast to his prior wardrobe of pastel beach coords.
71* In ''Film/Hellboy2004'' and ''Film/HellboyIITheGoldenArmy'', Hellboy often wears a baggy trenchcoat over his otherwise bare torso, the better to expose his muscular frame, complete with odd swirling sigils on his skin. He does sometimes wear a tight black shirt.
72* ''Film/SpiderMan2'': Otto Octavius has no choice but to dress this way because his tentacles are welded onto his body, making it impossible to wear regular shirts.
73* ''Film/Underworld2003'':
74** Viktor in the first film after regaining his strength but before setting out for the raid.
75** Marcus Corvinus and Andreas Tanis in ''Evolution''.
76[[/folder]]
77
78[[folder:Literature]]
79* At one point in Creator/CliveBarker's 1988 novella ''Cabal'' (adapted into the 1990 horror film ''Film/{{Nightbreed}}''), Boone takes off his dirty white shirt to feel his beloved leather jacket on his skin.
80* ''Literature/{{Hurog}}'': In ''Dragon Blood'', [[spoiler:Tisala]] only wears a long coat after [[spoiler:escaping from a torture bench]]. The coat was the only item of clothing that could be conveniently stolen at the time.
81* In Pierre Bordage's ''Wang'' series, the blood-crazed Mongol mobsters of Assöl (not a typo) in sub-zero Wroclaw embody this trope. Long leather jackets for the awesome, bare chests to show off their resistance to cold.
82[[/folder]]
83
84[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
85* ''Series/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphia'': When Dennis takes Mac's leather duster, he wears it without a shirt and vainly explains its appeal to women.
86* ''Series/KamenRiderBuild'': When Killbus, the BigBad of the sequel movie ''Cross-Z: New World'', arrived into the next reality over from Build's original world, he first saw [[TheHero Sento]] and copied his appearance. After a while he decided that it doesn't suit him and took on the appearance of a professional dancer, who was on the TV at the time. Said dancer is known for dressing in red pants, short jacket and no shirt when on the job.
87* ''Series/KamenRiderSaber'': Bahat, the BigBad of the movie ''Phoenix Swordsman and the Book of Ruin'' wears a long, overlapping coat, so it might not be immediately obvious that he has no shirt on.
88* A December 1973 telecast of ''Series/MatchGame '73'' had [=McLean=] Stevenson at the celebrity introduction opening with no shirt or jacket on whatsoever -- just a tie-around bow tie, much to the audience's hilarity. Host Gene Rayburn was completely dumbfounded, and called for wardrobe to fetch out a jacket for [=McLean=] to wear for the show.
89[[/folder]]
90
91[[folder:Music]]
92* Music/LadyGaga in the video for "Alejandro", along with [[CoolShades shades]] [[SunglassesAtNight at night]], white hair, a [[HellBentForLeather leather jacket]] and of course, [[UnderwearOfPower panties]], while singing in front of a cross, yeah, she hit everything for that one.
93* Joe Perry, the lead guitarist for Music/{{Aerosmith}}, frequently pulled this off on stage in the past. Now, not so much, but you can still occasionally catch him sporting this look.
94* Seal in the video for "Crazy".
95* Music/BobbyMcFerrin, in the video for "Don’t Worry, Be Happy."
96* Both Jimmy Page and Robert Plant did this a lot on stage in their Music/LedZeppelin days.
97* Music/YoshikiHayashi tends to sport this look during Music/XJapan concerts when he isn't drumming.

99
100[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
101* Wrestling/{{Edge|Wrestler}} till retirement
102* Wrestling/JohnMorrison, and the coat is [[PrettyInMink fur]] too.
103* Wrestling/MattHardy starting 2009.
104* Wrestling/WadeBarrett, before his Nexus days, would come to the ring wearing a long black coat with an English rose on the lapel, It disappeared after the formation of Wrestling/TheNexus, But the coat made a comeback after his return from an arm injury in 2012.
105* Even Wrestling/TheUndertaker has been [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37gO29zqHjA in it]] before.
106* Wrestling/TheMiz has worn one to the ring ever since his WWE Title win in 2010.

111* ''VideoGame/ANNOMutationem'': Absalom primarily wears an open black jacket, that fully shows his upper body with glowing tattoos etched all over.

114* Lucid from ''VideoGame/TheCaligulaEffect [[UpdatedRerelease Overdose]]'' has this as their outfit. Though due to Lucid having {{Invisibility}} as part of their design, it can be difficult to think of their invisible body being a naked chest.
115* ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}''
116** Adult Malus in ''VideoGame/Castlevania64''
117** Dracula and Alucard from the ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaLordsOfShadow'' timeline sport this look.
118%% Needs context * The Trickster from ''VideoGame/DeadByDaylight''.
119* ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry3DantesAwakening'': [[TheHero Dante]], only in this game. He starts the game with no coat at all, which can be [[JustifiedTrope defended on principle]] that he just got out of the shower. He doesn't manage to get a coat until the second mission and he barely gets much downtime to actually get proper clothes on thanks to the game's events. While this is the look he sports in ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'', for the other ''[=DMC=]'' titles, he wears shirts under his red coat.
120* Kaptain K. Rool from ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry2DiddysKongQuest''. Kutlass can also count although wearing a black vest.
121* Slade in ''VideoGame/DungeonsOfAether'' wears an open jacket with no shirt underneath, to fit with his pirate look.
122* Ruvik, the BigBad of ''VideoGame/TheEvilWithin'' appears this way when not in flashbacks.
123* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'': [[BigBad Sephiroth]]. It's hard to tell, however, because he does wear something around his midsection (with a pair of leather straps crossing his upper chest) and keeps the jacket belted shut.
124** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'' brings back [[VideoGame/DirgeOfCerberusFinalFantasyVII Weiss the Immaculate]], who has taken to wearing a long, white coat - but he still hasn't found a shirt.
125* ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'' has [[ChivalrousPervert Johnny]]. ''Overture'' also gave us [[IdiotHero Sin]], subverted in that he has some sort of [[RummageSaleReject weird stomach-warmer... Thing]].
126* ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'': "Ansem" / Xehanort's Heartless. He ditches the jacket for his OneWingedAngel form.
127* Yashiro Nanakase from ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters''. [[http://images.wikia.com/snk/images/1/16/Ash_2003comic.jpg Ash Crimson]] is also shown to use this look when he's not rocking the regular outfit.
128* The ''VideoGame/LegacyOfKain'' series has Janos Audron. Except in ''[[VideoGame/BloodOmen2LegacyOfKain Blood Omen 2]]'', where he is [[WalkingShirtlessScene shirtless all the time]].
129* Goro Majima from the ''VideoGame/LikeADragon'' series walks around town in an open snakeskin jacket that doesn't conceal his yakuza tattoos. The exception is in ''VideoGame/Yakuza0'', where he's instead a BadassInANiceSuit (as appropriate for a nightclub manager).
130* ''VideoGame/LiveALive'': Akira Tadokoro, the protagonist of Near Future chapter, wears a BadassLongcoat to go with his delinquent look, but flashes his abs all the time.
131* In ''VisualNovel/MarcoAndTheGalaxyDragon'', Dosgoro doesn’t wear a shirt with his pants and trench coat. This leaves his scaly gut on display at all times.
132* Thane Krios from ''Franchise/MassEffect'', though he surprisingly has a justification for it. Exposing his chest to open air helps with his lung disease.
133* ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' has [[DepravedBisexual Vamp]] and [[EvilCounterpart Liquid Snake]] from ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' wears an open brown duster over his bare torso, showing off his chiseled physique. Ocelot takes it up as well after being permanently possessed by Liquid in ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4GunsOfThePatriots MGS4]]''.
134* [[BigBad Shiba Miyakaze]] from ''VideoGame/NeoTheWorldEndsWithYou''. With his black blazer and a gold butterfly necklace adorning his bare chest; he looks like he stepped out of a nightclub.
135* Dedan from ''VideoGame/{{OFF}}''. His overworld sprite as well as official art of him depicts him with his coat buttoned up, implying that [[BattleStrip he unbuttoned his coat to fight the Batter]].
136%% Needs context * Elite Four member Drake from ''VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire''.
137* Professor Kukui from ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'', wears his lab coat over a bare chest and is a boisterous and energetic wrestler. His lack of a shirt is noted by Olivia as her first sentence of her first appearance of the game:
138--> '''???, a.k.a Olivia:''' Still haven't found a shirt that goes with your labcoat?
139* ''VideoGame/SoulSeries'': Kilik from ''Soulcalibur II'' wears a long red jacket that exposes his abs. Supposedly, [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Dante]] was planned to appear as a guest character in ''Soulcalibur III'' (wearing his ''[=DMC3=]''-era abs-exposing red long jacket shown as the page picture), but ended up getting cut because his costume looks too similar to Kilik's.
140* ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'': The [[https://swtorista.com/armor/unfettered-trench-coat Unfettered Trench Coat]] outfit consists solely of a BadassLongcoat that leaves the chest completely bare on male characters (female characters add a bandeau bra).
141* One of Luke's alternative costumes in ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss''. His default outfit (which includes a midriff baring longcoat) is more restrained but has a similar effect.
142* This is Bam Margera's outfit in ''VideoGame/TonyHawksUnderground 2''.
143[[/folder]]
144
145[[folder:Web Comics]]
146* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', Hedge is usually [[https://www.egscomics.com/sketchbook/2003-11-02 seen]] with a fishnet shirt (effectively making him shirtless) and a long brown coat.
147* [[NoNameGiven The neighbour]] in ''Webcomic/FlakyPastry'' does this with a long red jacket, in what's probably a ShoutOut to ''Devil May Cry''.
148[[/folder]]
149
150[[folder:Web Original]]
151* [=GoodTimesWithScar=] seems to be in fond with this trope alongside with WalkingShirtlessScene.
152** In [[WebVideo/MinecraftChampionship MCC 29]], he wore a jacket combined with a [[FluffyFashionFeathers feathered boa]] and pink shades for the Pink Parrots team.
153** In ''[[WebVideo/LifeSMP Double Life SMP]]'', once he and Grian [[{{Synchronization}} became Red names]] thanks to an explosion he fell for, Scar wore a black jacket, already opened to expose his chest.
154** Although this trope covers his pecs, his tendency to go shirtless in-game has since reached {{memetic|Mutation}} status in the greater MCYT fandom, who would often either be jokingly exasperated by or [[EstrogenBrigade fawn]] [[TestosteroneBrigade over]] his characters' "Scitties".
155* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'': Sage Ayana from [[MrFanservice Team SSSN]] wears a long white jacket over a tattooed chest.
156* ''WebVideo/SuperMarioLogan'':
157** Chef Pee Pee [[SubvertedTrope subverts this trope]] in the episode, "Bowser's Salad Wrap" by slapping his jacket once, opening its buttons, and leaving it that way for a moment. Bowser Junior is disgusted, while his father admits he's too sexy.
158** The Brooklyn Guy appears at the end of "Chef Poo Poo's Kitchen Disaster!", and is suggested to strip himself. He only does it part way, with his jacket open (and of course, not being taken off) for the rest of the ending.
