Sizes: XS-XXL | Main materials: 2L Gore-Tex shell, 750-fill-power goose down insulation and synthetic insulation| Design: Parka with attached hood | Colors: 4 total, including Black Sapphire and Smoke Bluff

• What’s notable: This jacket is a standout for both technical features and style, making it a great jacket for cold, wet environments when you want to look sharp.
• What could be better: There’s no drawstring cinch at the bottom, which would be helpful to prevents drafts.

This warm, durable and well-designed coat is built to last: Its durable Gore-Tex shell is waterproof, windproof and breathable, and it features down insulation and well-placed synthetic insulation in wetness-prone areas. The adjustable hood is insulated, so you’re covered even if you forget a hat. Additional details we include a two-way zipper, internal cuff gaskets and zippered hand and chest pockets.

What the reviews say: Many praise this coat for being lightweight yet very warm, and they say it accommodates a variety of clothing underneath—“enough room for a suit jacket, yet great over a sweater or mid layers.” But reviewers also comment that the fit of this coat is generous so you may have to size down, and some say the two-way zipper can be a pain to engage.

Carhartt Super Dux Relaxed Fit Insulated Traditional Coat

Sizes: S-3XL, as well as tall sizes| Main materials: 97% nylon/3% elastane shell with 3M Thinsulate insulation | Design: Parka with hood | Colors: 2 total, including Black and Coffee

• What’s notable: The soft-shell fabric has flex so it stretches and moves with you.
• What could be better: There’s no hidden interior drawcord at the hem, so icy winds can creep in.

Carhartt’s Super Dux line was initially made for hunters in the 1930s. This jacket is constructed from lightweight, durable nylon that’s notoriously good at blocking wind, and it has a DWR finish to repel rain and snow. Other key details include storm cuffs, front pockets with side entry to keep hands warm and an adjustable hood.

What the reviews say: Overall, reviewers praise the roomy pockets and warmth of this coat. According to one reviewer, “the zipper works effortlessly, and the interior sleeve cuffs do a great job of keeping arms warm.” Some don’t love the Velcro closures on the pockets and say they would prefer snaps. Others comment that this coat is too roomy for thinner builds.

• What’s notable: The down-filled adjustable hood protects your head and neck from extreme weather.
• What could be better: The price makes this a serious financial investment.

Canada Goose offers a lot of standout cold weather options—their Snow Mantra and Expedition jackets offer Arctic-level warmth—but this particular jacket brings the heat in a more streamlined design that’s more practical for frequent wear. It’s intended to endure temperatures up to -13 degrees Fahrenheit, with rib-knit cuffs that trap warmth and prevent drafts, an interior drawcord to retain warmth and a down filled hood that’s adjustable two ways. It has four exterior pockets and two interior pockets, and it comes in eight colors, so you’re pretty much guaranteed to find one you like.

What the reviews say: Many reviewers say this jacket’s durability and street style are incomparable, but comment that the fit runs a bit large.

Sizes: XS-XXL | Main materials: 100% recycled Gore-Tex shell partially made from Bionic marine plastic, 100% recycled down insulation | Design: Parka with fixed hood | Colors: 3 total, including New Navy and Nouveau Green

• What’s notable: Solid weatherproof construction means this is an investment that will last.
• What could be better: The fit is boxier than some others, and the hood can feel tight.

This jacket—constructed in large part from ocean-bound plastic—is a winner because of well-thought features that keep out cold and trap heat. Made with 700-fill-power recycled down insulation and a DWR (durable water repellant) finish, it has a hidden drawcord hem to trap body heat, storm cuffs to keep out drafts, an insulated hood that cinches for increased warmth and zippered hand warmer pockets.

What the reviews say: Reviewers praise the fit, saying “it’s roomy, providing adequate space for bulkier sub-layers and stowable items like gloves, beanies, water bottles, etc.” Others rave about its next-level warmth, commenting “the performance is sublime. I don’t even need to zip it up, it’s so warm.” One reviewer, however, found it constricting, saying, “sizing is tighter in the chest and shoulders than normal for Patagonia jackets.”

Outdoor Research Super Alpine Down Jacket

Sizes: S-XXL | Main materials: Ripstop nylon shell and 800-fill-power down insulation| Design: Puffer with hood | Colors: 4 total, including Black and Topaz

• What’s notable: It’s ultralight and packable, and the brushed fabric at the chin makes this style comfy when the hood is up.
• What could be better: The roomy fit can be tricky for some, and if you don’t have a close-to-the-body fit, you may lose heat.

Seattle-based Outdoor Research was founded in the early 80s with the promise of creating research-based technical wear. This jacket offers a generous fit alongside serious adjustability: The hood has a drawcord to trap heat—it works over most helmets if you’ll be wearing this on the mountain—and it has an adjustable drawcord hem and Velcro cuffs. To keep belongings secure, it has a chest zip pocket, zip side hand pockets and two internal stash pockets.

What the reviews say: Reviewers praise the warmth of this jacket without it having excess bulk (“keeps me warm during the cold days -20F up in Alaska!” says one user), but some point out that it can run wide in the chest and waist.

Sizes: XS-XXL | Main materials: 94% recycled nylon, 6% polyester shell, 600 fill recycled down insulation | Design: Puffer with detachable hood | Colors: 3 total, including Summit Navy/Summit Gold and TNF Black/Khaki Stone

• What’s notable: The highly wind resistant shell blocks icy wind gusts and the hood is removable, which is not the case with many other styles.
• What could be better: While it has a DWR finish, it’s not completely waterproof and the material can snag easily.

The North Face nails street style plus functionality, and this retro-inspired coat will keep you looking good while battling the elements. It features pockets with both top and side entry, knit inner cuffs at the wrist to keep out wind and snow, and it has hook and loop adjustability at the wrist.

Rab Neutrino Pro Jacket

Sizes: S-XXL | Main materials: Recycled Pertex with 800-fill down insulation | Design: Puffer with hood | Colors: 4 total, including Army and Black/Graphene

• What’s notable: For something that’s extremely lightweight, warm and packs down, this is a top choice.
• What could be better: This vaguely resembles wearing a sleeping bag, so it won’t win as many style points.

Mountain climber Rab Carrington founded his business in the UK in 1981 and began by making performance sleeping bags. His products quickly expanded to lightweight, highly insulated outerwear meant to withstand freezing temperatures. The Neutrino Pro features a water-resistant shell, lofty 800-fill down insulation, articulated sleeves to allow for better ease of movement, a two-way front zipper, and an adjustable hood, hem and cuffs.

What the reviews say: Universally praised for warmth, one reviewer says this is “like wearing an electric blanket.” It also packs down to the size of “a small loaf of bread.” However, one reviewer comments that this runs big in the arms, saying, “the arm diameter is HUGE.”

Sizes: 38-46 | Main materials: Wool exterior, polyester fill bib | Design: Overcoat | Colors: Charcoal

• What’s notable: A removable bib offers extra protection at the chest and neck while commuting.
• What could be better: Interior quilting would add additional warmth.

Italian luxury brand Herno is legendary for their quality and construction. This coat, made from thermoregulating, breathable wool offers a traditional overcoat design with a zip-out bib for blustery days. It also has Storm System waterproofing, which means the fibers are treated to repel moisture without sacrificing their look and breathability.

Sizes: S-XXL| Main materials: 100% polyester shell, 450 fill power down insulation | Design: Parka with a hood | Colors: 3 total, including Black and Collegiate Navy

• What’s notable: This jacket features a trifecta of heat-retaining features: down insulation, synthetic insulation and a thermal reflective lining to trap warmth.
• What could be better: Some say it runs long even on tall frames.

A standout trait of this jacket is that it’s critically seam sealed, which means it’s completely waterproof and no moisture can creep in, even in the most wet conditions. To ensure a better fit, it has an drawcord waist as well as an adjustable attached hood that has removable synthetic fur. While the feel of the thermal reflective lining can be off putting to some, it harnesses your body’s warmth and acts as a furnace, without making the jacket bulky.

What the reviews say: This style scores major points for versatility, with users saying it’s “rugged, functional and warm,” although many comment that it runs large, with one person saying, “an XL fits like and XXL.”

This parka checks every important box: It’s windproof, waterproof, breathable and insulated with 600-fill power recycled down. This coat’s extra length offers more warmth, and the two-way center front zipper makes it easy to adjust for comfortable sitting. Additional features that make this parka excellent: It has lots of thoughtfully-placed pockets—alpine chest pockets and two front patch pockets with dual entry—an adjustable drawcord hood, a draft flap and adjustable cuffs.

Fjallraven Expedition Down Jacket

Sizes: S-XL | Main materials: Polyamide shell, 700-fill power insulation | Design: Puffer with hood| Colors: 4 total, including Green and Navy

Originally designed in 1974, this iconic down puffer now comes in an updated, thigh-length silhouette. It also has purposefully configured insulation: Its 700-fill power down is placed in two offset layers to prevent heat loss, and shoulders are reinforced with synthetic padding to hinder moisture from creeping in. The polyamide exterior is wind-resistant with a durable water repellant finish, and it has a two-way front zipper with a protective flap to keep arctic air from getting to your core. Some reviewers note this coat is on the bulkier side, but that it’s extremely warm.

Sizes: S-XXL | Main materials: 90% nylon, 10% elastane shell, 700-fill power down insulation | Design: Puffer with hood | Colors: 8 total, including Cobalt Blue/Blue Night and Bronze/Stargazer

Marmot produced their first prototypes in 1973 and the company has been fine tuning high quality outdoor jackets ever since. Reviewers like this hardy down hoody because it’s equal parts warm and lightweight, and while most down coats lose their warmth when they become wet, this jacket is equipped with specially treated, water-resistant down. The hip length allows for mobility, the hood is down-filled for extra warmth, and a zippered chest and hand pockets are convenient for stashing things like a phone and keys.
