Check out the best coats and jackets for winter, from a Moncler puffer jacket to a Canada Goose parka.
Ask most arctic explorers what brand they prefer, and they’ll likely extol the virtues of Canada Goose. For over six decades, the outwear label—first called Metro Sportswear, then Snow Goose—has been churning out styles built for the most adverse conditions. They act as a fortress, the ultimate protective barrier in the harshest of winters. Case in point: the Citadel Fusion Fit parka. The shell is made of Arctic Tech, the brand’s extremely durable and water-resistant proprietary fabric, and the lining is stuffed with 625-fill power down. And if that isn’t enough, the silhouette is streamlined, perfect for walking down city streets.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell:</strong> Polyester and cotton. <br><strong>Insulation:</strong> Duck down.<br><strong>Fit:</strong> Slim. <br><strong>Waterproof:</strong> Water-resistant.
Aether’s coats all have a cinematic quality; they draw the eye instantly. This should come as no surprise, considering that the brand was founded by Palmer West and Jonah Smith, two erstwhile movie producers. The duo makes it a point to offer styles that push the boundaries of design, playing with colors and fabrics, all while keeping the silhouettes sleek. Their Torino coat is a great example of this sentiment. It comes in a striking red color with black panels and is cut to flatter. What’s more, the jacket is waterproof, wind-resistant, abrasion-resistant, and seam-sealed. It’s a star.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Nylon polyurethane.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Goose down.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Yes.
Patagonia was founded in the ’70s by Yvon Chouinard, a rock climber who understood what was needed to combat the elements. Throughout the decades, the brand continues to live up to his legacy, amassing a vast assortment of styles primed for the coldest environments. Any one of its insulated outerwear will work great, but the hottest commodity, the coat that sells out regularly, is the Tres 3-in-1 parka. Why? Perhaps because you’re getting three toppers for the price of one: a waterproof shell, an insulating zip-out jacket with 700-fill power down and a breathable liner—all of which detach. Perhaps it’s because of the magnetic snap-flap closures. Or that it’s sustainably made. The right answer: all of the above.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Recycled polyester downproof ripstop.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Recycled duck and goose down.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular. <br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Yes.
When it comes to bombers, it doesn’t get more authentic than Alpha Industries. Since the ’50s, the brand has been producing the style, tweaking the shape, fabric, and details throughout the decades. It essentially has one for every season and every kind of scenario. The best one for wearing every day in winter? The B-3, a jacket with a heavy-duty leather exterior that’s lined with insulating sherpa. Also, its roomy silhouette allows you to pile on the layers underneath. You don’t need to, considering how warm it is already, but you have the option. <br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Leather.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Sherpa.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Large.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Massimo Rossetti is a sportsman and avid explorer. He has traveled the world, from trekking through the deep forests of Iceland to sailing the high seas. But it was meeting the 210th Rescue Squadron in Anchorage, Alaska, that inspired him to create Parajumpers. The officers take to the skies in helicopters, outfitted in heavy-duty uniforms equipped with hooks, clips, and other details that aid in their missions—something Rossetti wanted to bring to the masses. This down jacket, for example, features bungee-style fastenings, lanyard clasps, and adjustable velcro tabs on the cuff. Most importantly, the jacket is incredibly insulating. It’s as close to what servicemen wear in the tundra as it’s going to get.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Polyamide and polyester.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Duck down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Slim.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Nobis is a brand that emphasizes performance, offering outerwear that is meticulously constructed to keep you warm while allowing you to move with ease. Its Oliver puffer, for one, is made of a three-ply micro denier exterior, a nylon that’s as lightweight as its hardwearing. It’s also water-resistant, windproof, breathable, and machine washable. And if all this isn’t enough, the jacket is completely reversible, with one side puffy and the other smooth.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Three-ply micro denier and nylon.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Duck down.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Arc’teryx’s coats are rock solid. In fact, Rock Solid was the company’s original name before it rebranded itself in 1991. Several years later, it introduced a line made of Gore-Tex, a breathable, waterproof fiber that’s now become an industry standard. As a leader in outdoor apparel, pieces specially made for harsh conditions, Arc’teryx has always been ahead of the curve. It offers styles, like this jacket, that are incredibly insulating, protective, and sharply tailored. It’s the kind of topper that’s great for trekking, strolling, and everything in between.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Gore-Tex.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Goose down.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Yes.
If you’re a techwear enthusiast or true fashion lover, C.P. Company needs no introduction. But here’s a refresher: Massimo Osti founded the company in 1971, gaining renown by infusing military-style construction into everyday wear. He was one of the first to experiment with fabrics, paying close attention to the technical aspects of a garment and how it performed in the real world. This jacket definitely lives up to this reputation. It’s made of quilted ripstop, a polyamide that’s both water- and abrasion-resistant, and padded with down—which is surprisingly not so common when it comes to winter coats. But as we all know, C.P. Company doesn’t do <em>common</em>.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Nylon-ripstop.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Slim.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
A decade after founding C.P. Company, Massimo Osti (the man truly deserves more recognition) created Stone Island. He brought the same technical prowess to the secondary line, but experimented more with dyeing and creating colors that gave garments greater dimension. They were also more ergonomic, allowing wearers to move with ease. Now under the direction of Carlo Rivetti, the brand continues to offer the same kind of quality, evidenced by this lightweight but completely insulating puffer.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Polyamide.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Visit any lodge in Montbeliard, Aspen, or Cortina D’Ampezzo, and you’re bound to see a bevy and puffers from Moncler. Founded in the ’50s, the storied brand has become synonymous with high-end skiing, a label that imparts instant cachet. Its renown is rooted in unquestionable quality; every stitch and placement of panels is carefully considered, and the materials are always the best of the best. Not to be outdone is the brand’s signature glossy surface and the sleekness of its designs. They may be built for the slopes, but they work just as great, if not better, for walking down the streets in winter.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Nylon.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Woolrich is as classic as they come. The company has been in business for over two centuries—a tremendous feat to achieve in an industry that sees brands come and go at a rapid rate. The key to Woolrich’s longevity? It doesn’t offer flash-in-the-pan styles. It offers stalwarts, pieces that, no matter the era, will always be de rigueur. But this doesn’t mean the brand doesn’t evolve with the times. In fact, it continuously improves its fabrics and how they are constructed. A great example is Woolrich’s iconic Arctic anorak, which is made of its signature Ramar Cloth, a water-resistant and wind-resistant material that’s incredibly durable. Factor in the detachable fur trim on the hood and pockets lined with Polygiene ViralOff, a material that kills viruses, and you have a coat that’ll last a lifetime.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Nylon and cotton.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Duck down.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
The moniker “Made in Italy” is synonymous with class, quality, and an unmissable urbanity. We think of names like Tod’s, Berlutti, and Kiton, storied labels that have spent decades building their reputations by offering pieces that have an air of timelessness, pieces that are polished and telegraph luxury instantly. MooRER, though comparatively new (it launched in 2006), belongs in this group. Founder Moreno Faccincani sought to offer outerwear that was as suave as it was durable, the kinds of coats and jackets that would pair nicely with, say, a Kiton suit and Tod’s Chelsea boots. <br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Polyester.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Goose down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Mackage offers an assortment of styles for every season, but it specializes in coats for winter. Indeed, the brand is not lacking in parkas, bombers, and puffers. There are plenty to choose from. But the one that tops our list is the Antoine, a down coat with an elegant nylon exterior that’s made to resist wind and water. The construction is near faultless, and the streamlined silhouette wraps around without adding too much bulk. It also features a detachable bib, which will come in handy when you get in a snowstorm.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Polyamide, nylon, and polyester.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Duck down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Overland creates styles made for the Great Outdoors, but look polished enough for urban settings. The brand’s best-selling B-3 Bomber jacket, for one, is made of rich Nappa leather and lined with plush shearling, one of the most insulating materials out there. It also features a detachable hood, buckle details on the collar, and elegant top-stitching. It is beautifully brawny. Considering all these characteristics, it’s hard to believe that the topper is only $695. But seeing is believing.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Nappa leather.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Shearling.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
With a Triple F.A.T. coat, all you’d need to do is is wear light layers underneath to conquer the cold. Why? Because, as the brand name clearly implies, its pieces are built For Arctic Temperatures. One great example is this stylish parka and its 16 ounces of 750 fill power white duck down, which will completely change how you’ll approach dressing for winter.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Atmoshell+.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Duck down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Rick Owens, Paris Fashion Week’s reigning prince of darkness, is renowned for his forward-thing designs. He toys with proportions and fabrics, elevating standard styles to new heights. Prime example: This Peter coat, with its oversized silhouette that mimics a duvet. Yes, it’s large and enveloping, but if you’re the kind of fella that likes to make a statement with fashion, Owens, in more ways than one, has got you covered.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Polyamide.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Down.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Oversized.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
When Everlane launched over a decade ago, its goal was to offer quality basics, all sustainably made, at prices that spoke to a broad range of people. Sounds simple enough, but with the market so saturated with brands tooting the same spiel, most of which is smoke and mirrors, Everlane needed to break through the noise. And it did. Now, the label is a juggernaut, with its styles selling out often. One of them is the ReNew parka, a coat made from 55 renewed plastic bottles and filled with Primaloft insulation. It’s so reliable and effective in winter that it’s no wonder it flies off the virtual shelves.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Recycled polyester.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Recycled PrimaLoft.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Relaxed.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
L.L.Bean is the ultimate purveyor of rugged apparel—the kinds of collections created to withstand the harsh winters in Freeport, Maine, the brand’s HQ. And its Mountain parka is perhaps the most heavy-duty of the lot. It features a unique, abrasion-resistant waterproof exterior, packed with 650 DownTek insulation that’ll stay dry through any weather conditions.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Nylon.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>650 DownTek.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Slim.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Yes.
When trained architect Jeff Johnson couldn’t find a well-designed coat that could take on the bitter cold after moving to the Netherlands, he partnered with Kal Vepuri to create the Arrivals, a DTC label that, more than most, harmoniously blends form and function. Like a great building, each of the brand’s coats are built to cater to a specific environment. And in the case of Turbo, the scene is bleak and frost-bitten—but one that requires you to move nimbly. This is why the style is equal parts ultra-puff and ultra-fluff, combining both soft and hard elements to form a piece that’ll withstand Dutch winters, American winters or any scenario that involves ample amounts of snow.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Nylon.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Eco-fill.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Relaxed.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Fusalp was founded by two tailors in the heart of the French Alps. It was the 1950s, a period when skiing became a recreational activity for those that vacationed on mountaintops, and the brand was there to provide apparel that performed just as good as they looked. The silhouettes were sharp and elegant, and the fabric selections were of the highest quality—characteristics befitting master suitmakers. It was inevitable that the company would start to offer styles for strutting down the streets, particularly coats that’ll combat the elements with the utmost panache. Indeed, the Urban Gezi, a hooded parka made of waterproof exterior shell, is a shining example of what Fusalp does best. <br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Polyamide, polyurethane, and elastane.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Duck down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Waterproof.
The North Face’s jackets are street-style icons. It’s been worn recently by Jared Leto, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Ben Affleck, to name a few. But before it became fodder for the paps, the brand’s goose-downs—noted for their boxy shape—was a mainstay in ’90s hip-hop culture. Biggie, Method Man, and LL Cool J have all rapped about the North Face in their tracks, influencing a generation of urban dwellers. It’s a style that instantly imparts swagger. It’s cool to the core. <br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Recycled nylon ripstop.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Down.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Relaxed.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Zegna just dropped its outdoor line, and true to form, the Italian luxury label’s collection is fit for rigorous cold weather. Looking for the ski apparel that toes the line between the tasteful and the technical? We point you to the quilted hooded down ski jacket, which features a water-resistant finish, soft down for insulation, and snaps that fasten to keep the snow out.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Polyamide, polyester, and elastane.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
Lululemon may have started out as a niche label for moneyed yogis, but it has since become a force in athleticwear, offering all kinds of styles for sweat-inducing activities. From swimming and trekking to playing golf and tennis, the company has all the goods to help you stay in motion. And if you so happen to be an outdoor runner, even in the dead of winter, Lululemon has you covered—literally. Its winter parka is primed for coursing down the track or trail in the frost. It is made of a recycled nylon that’s waterproof, wind-resistant, and insulating—but is somehow also incredibly breathable, too. The beauty of tech apparel, right? <br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Recycled nylon ripstop.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Goose down and feathers.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Yes.
Designer logos are a dime a dozen nowadays, but Gucci’s “GG” and interlocking “G” are truly singular. They are motifs that instantly impart cachet and luxury. They tell others that you value fashion. And they are both emblazoned on this quilted coat. But it’s not all hype. The brand offers collections of the highest quality. It uses the finest materials and designs silhouettes that flatter, all while pushing the proverbial envelope. It walks the fine line between timeless and timely. <br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Recycled Nylon.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Goose down.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
For over 10 years, Todd Snyder has built his business by breathing new life into classics, refreshing stalwart styles by playing with proportions, patterns, and fabrics. This is evident in this large-and-in-charge topper, which tweaks the standard puffer by casting the durable nylon exterior in a cool olive green color, amplifying the silhouette and adding two-way zippers, Velcro cuffs, and snappable double vents in the back. It’s big, for sure, but in true Snyder fashion, the topper compliments the body instead of engulfing it.<br><br><strong>Exterior Shell: </strong>Nylon.<br><strong>Insulation: </strong>Duck down and polyfill.<br><strong>Fit: </strong>Regular.<br><strong>Waterproof: </strong>Water-resistant.
