Pros

Ideal for damp climates
Inner hood is quilted for added warmth

Cons

Limited colors available

If you need something to shield you from the wind and cold on your way to wherever chilly place you’re going, Patagonia has you covered. The brand’s sleek, waterproof parka looks and feels refined, but its bonded construction and insulated liner, made from recycled ocean plastics, ensure you’ll stay warm and dry in winter weather. The cut is a bit longer, hitting just above the thigh for more protection.

Best Insulated Coat

Columbia Men’s Landroamer Puffer Insulated Jacket

Pros

Hood is removable
Deep chest pockets for devices

Cons

Only comes in one color

Columbia is a well-known purveyor of top-notch cold-weather gear, and this Landroamer Puffer is proof. The foil-like lining and polyester filling help retain body heat for extra warmth but are still breathable so you don’t overheat. The nylon shell is handy on damp days or if you’re wearing this coat on the slopes.

Best Winter Coat for the City

Canada Goose Langford Parka Black Label

Pros

Has three interior pockets
Piping around the perimeter prevents excessive wear
Available in four colors

Cons

Pricey

Before Canada Goose became the brand of choice for style-conscious urban dwellers, you could find it on arctic explorers and film crews working in seriously unpleasant conditions. There’s a reason for that: The company’s down-filled coats are both tough and insulating. And even if you’re not venturing into the unknown, the 625-fill power down on this Langford parka is enough to keep you warm all winter. The coat also features an adjustable tunnel hood with interchangeable trimmings (sold separately), ribbed knit cuffs, and fleece-lined pockets for extra warmth.

colors	black, volcano, coastal grey, north star white
sizes	xs-3xl
materials	83% polyester lining, 17% cotton lining, 80% down, 20% feathers

Best Wind-Proof Parka

L.L. Bean Baxter State Parka

Pros

Lightweight
Available in regular and tall sizes

Cons

Some customers says the faux fur isn’t plush

Based in Maine, L.L.Bean knows a thing or two about harsh winters, making sure that its coats (and its entire stock, for that matter) can stand up to frost-laden mountaintops. The Baxter State Parka keeps with the brand’s high standards of warmth in the coldest of temps. The nylon shell is water-repellent. Inside, there’s a 650-fill water-repellent down, four useful pockets on the outside, and three interior pockets. The faux fur trim on the insulated hood is removable and the coat as a whole can be tossed in the washing machine if you happen to find yourself in a muddy situation.

Best Reversible Winter Coat

Nobis Oliver Reversible Puffer Jacket

Breathable, windproof, and water-resistant, this premium three-ply micro-denier exterior and duck-down fill is built to combat the worst kinds of weather. It’s also machine washable, in case you encounter stains and don’t have time to go to the dry cleaner. But if you’re in a pinch, the jacket is also completely reversible, transforming into a classic-looking quilted puffer on the other side.

Ultra Warm Hybrid Down Coat

Uniqlo Ultra Warm Hybrid Down Coat

Pros

Helps keep body heat from escaping
Water-repellent outer shell

Cons

Can only be hand washed

The Japanese mega-retailer has upped the warmth factor on this coat to make it the most winter-ready, with a faux fur hood and inner layer. As with all things Uniqlo, it packs in a lot of minimalist style for a pretty minimal price, too. But the lower price doesn’t mean fewer features. Along with a down fill and padding, the lining is made of an aluminum print that helps retain your body heat as you wear it to keep the cold out sans the sweat that can happen when you overheat. The shell is water-repellent in case you get caught in a rain shower, and it has a looser fit overall if you want to layer up.

colors	black, natural, olive, navy
sizes	xxs-3xl
materials	shell: 84% polyester, 16% cotton inner chamber filling: 52% down outer chamber filling: 48% polyester

best on-the-go winter coat

Lululemon Wunder Puff Jacket

Wunder Puff Jacket

Isn’t it the worst when your winter coat is so bulky and puffy, you feel like you can hardly move? Lululemon solves that problem with a puffer built to be on the go with you. This hip-length, water-repellent style is lightweight yet warm, with a relaxed fit that you can layer your thickest sweater under. Read all about how much we love this jacket here.

best cool-guy winter coat

Alpha Industries B-3 Sherpa Leather Bomber Jacket

When it comes to bombers, you better believe that Alpha Industries, an OG maker of the style, will always deliver on durability. The sherpa-lined leather is a departure from the many nylon options on this list and even though that means a higher price tag, the features make up for it. Two straps on the collar adjust to keep cold breezes out and buckle straps at the waist make for a more snug fit to keep any cold from creeping in.

colors	black, deep brown
sizes	xs-3xl
materials	shell: faux leather lining: sherpa wool fleece

best durable winter coat

Carhartt Duck Insulated Flannel-Lined Jacket

Pros

Convenient front zip
Casual look

Cons

Not the warmest option

This one is for all the guys out there who either want a really sick fit pic, a really protective and durable jacket, or both. Carhartt brings its workwear into winter, baby. Much like the brand’s other outwear pieces this one is water-repellent and wind-resistant, and the entire coat, hood included, is lined in quilted flannel for extra warmth.

best casual winter coat

L.L. Bean Mountain Classic Down Parka

Pros

Great for city and hiking
Lightweight and perfect for layering

Cons

Buyers report not the best zipper quality

Another great option from L.L. Bean is this classic puffer parka. It’s the kind of coat you buy once and wear forever. The slightly-fitted style falls at the thigh and is roomy enough for a thick sweater or hoodie underneath. The 650-fill down on the inside is lightweight, but extra warm and has been treated so that it doesn’t absorb moisture and clump together if it gets wet.

colors	dark barley, nautical navy, black, alloy gray
sizes	s-3xl
materials	shell and lining: 100% recycled polyester.

Best Fur-Trimmed Winter Coat

Best Textured Winter Jacket

Ralph Lauren The Gorham Hybrid Down Jacket

Pros

Certified to the Responsible Down Standard (RDS)
Machine-washable

Cons

Not water-repellent

RL’s contribution to your winter style game comes in the form of this cozy coat that combines fleece and nylon on top of a 650-fill-power-down filling. The storm guard-equipped hood zips away from the padded mock neck, and a drawstring hem cinches at the waist for a less breezy fit.

colors	polo black, company Olive

Best Long Puffer Coat

adidas Big Baffle Down Coat

Pros

Longer silhouette provides more shielding from the cold

Cons

Only comes in one color

When you need extended protection from the elements, this longline Adidas puffer has you covered, literally. The hem hits right above the knee so the recycled polyester shell and feather fill will keep more of you warmer. And speaking of the shell, it’s water-repellent to keep you dry on damp days. The detachable hood connects to the high-collar when you need the bonus coverage.
