There’s one or two benefits to the chilly weather arriving, namely the layers, knits and luxurious outerwear that come with it. And the biggest clothing investment of the season? The winter coat. Whether it’s women’s winter coats or men’s winter coats, these warm and comfortable pieces of clothing can become a favourite of any wardrobe. Consider the amount of times you’ll wear one this winter, it’ll probably be the most worn item in your wardrobe, so it makes sense to invest in a well-made classic coat that can be worn year after year and still look awesome. We know a thing or two about beautiful and functional coats, and our Warm Welcome coat collection is looking seriously good. To help you choose which one’s right for you, here’s our top five…
Classic Women’s Coats
The Parka
With ex-military parkas adopted by Mods and later the Britpop movement as a clothing staple, the jacket became a symbol of youthful rebellion. Fast forward to today and the parka has secured it’s place as a timeless classic. Our parkas add warmth and practical style to your wardrobe; it’s 100% waterproof and has a half fleece lining. Everything an investment coat should be!
The 3-In-1 Coat
Why buy one coat, when you can have three? The 3-in-1 coat, sometimes known as an ‘interactive jacket’ usually comprises of a waterproof outer layer with a removable inner layer that can be worn independently. Part of our Right as Rain collection, a 3-in-1 jacket is perfect for the predictably unpredictable British weather. Wear the 100% waterproof outer coat on its own when its raining or choose the fully quilted inner jacket when just a little cover from the cold is required. For days when you need complete protection from the elements, the two can be easily attached together. A true performance jacket that works for smarter occasions too.

The Blazer
