Else HuttHow to choose the best men's coats and jackets for winter
The best men’s jackets for winter combine practicality and style. If you’re unsure where to begin, start by looking for warm materials like wool, or check for insulating lining, such as our Thermowarmth filling. Then, consider when you’ll be wearing it. If you’re braving rainy morning commutes or windy walks, a smart puffer jacket is a great choice. We love this hooded style in olive green or classic navy for throwing over smart-casual looks and activewear alike.
Alternatively, if you’re wanting something a bit slicker, the trick is to check the fit. This chore jacket is made from crisp cotton in a clean, boxy silhouette that (thanks to the structured material) will hold its shape. Our tip? Size up for easy layering on extra chilly days.
The best men's stylish winter coats for every occasion: dress coats and overcoats
When dressing for formal occasions or looking to elevate any look, try opting for a wool coat. Not only is it guaranteed to be warm, but it will also bring a timeless appeal to any outfit.
Cue the sophisticated overcoat. This dark navy design is cut to a long length with a funnel neckline and side pockets. Slip it over a crisp white T-shirt and tailored trousers for a considered ensemble.
Alternatively, try a classic pea coat. Favoured for its notch lapels and double-breasted fastening, it's the perfect everyday option for layering over everything, from jeans and a sweatshirt to sleek tailoring. We love Autograph's coveted style in navy wool blend.
Top men's casual jackets for everyday winterwear: fleece jackets and parkas
Off-duty dressing in the winter is made easier with a practical parka. Helly Hansen's hooded jacket is made from waterproof fabric with an adjustable hood and storm cuffs – ideal for braving the elements. Alternatively, our water-repellent parka is lined with Thermowarmth insulation.
Or, tap the heritage trend with our khaki wax jacket. It’s crafted in breathable British cotton with a cord collar and front zip. The best bit? It’s finished with padded lining for extra warmth.
You can always rely on a cosy fleece jacket to see you through chilly days. Our black iteration comes in a regular cut, plus the collared neck adds a luxurious feel.
