The Cosiest Coats to Be Seen In This Winter

We might be at risk of sounding like your parents here, but If there’s one thing you need in your wardrobe when the winter rolls around, it’s a good old comfy puffer jacket. Pretty much the clothing equivalent of a nice, warm hug, the puffer silhouette is no longer reserved for sub-zero temperatures and mountainous climates, because thanks to brands like The North Face, they’ve fast become a lifestyle must-have. And, what’s even better, is that now the humble puffer has become more fashion-focussed, puffers are now available in a number of shapes and materials, meaning that there’s certain to be a puffer jacket to suit your personal style.

As the cold weather draws ever closer, we’ve pulled together some of our favourite puffers on the market right now that are certain to see you through the season ahead (and of course, the years to come)!

First up, a classic Nuptse Jacket from The North Face is hard to beat, but this Sherpa version might just be the icing on the cake. You may have seen the beige version doing the rounds on social media, but the jacket also comes in black, which we think makes for a slightly more practical alternative. Arriving in a relaxed fit, this super-soft high pile fleece jacket is the epitome of cosy, and not only is it cute but it also comes with a number of practical features including Heatseeker Insulated lining for added warmth, a stowable hood and zipped pockets. What more could you want?

Next, if you had your eye on adidas’ Gucci collab, then we’ve found a purse-friendly version to consider adding to your wardrobe. This Adicolour 70s Velvet Puffer Jacket is a lesson in retro styling and comes in a luxurious-looking brown velour material that’s super soft to the touch. Pops of beige add the perfect amount of tonal contrast, and a warm duck-down filling makes this jacket a must-have for another who’s looking to elevate their outerwear.

If you’re looking for something a little less, well, puffy, then this little adidas number could be for you. Sporting a similar design to *that* viral The Frankie Shop jacket, this one-size-fits-all quilted jacket looks seriously premium. Coming in a loose, oversized fit for an elevated silhouette and sporting oversized front pockets for your valuables, it's the perfect balance between statement and subtle.

Finally, a longline option is a cold-weather essential, so we had to throw this Nike Parka into the mix. Lightweight yet filled with Therma-FIT tech, this jacket is also water-repellent for an extra touch of practicality. Nike branding hits the chest for a sporty touch and zipped pockets provide a secure space to stash your valuables.
