slacks,

We call those chinos or casual trousers, although we used to use the word
'slacks' in the 50s/60s.

coat

Here, that's a jacket. In the UK, a coat is an overcoat (although that would
probably be useful too!).

trainers (running shoes, I forget what you call them)

Sneakers I think, being a Seinfeld fan! ;-)
