Six of the Best – Big Jackets for the Big Freeze

We’re on the cusp of everyone talking about how cold it is, which is usually pretty boring, but given the opportunity it presents to don the big jackets, we’re very much here for it.

We’ve chosen six serious pieces of outerwear, all available at Outsiders Store, each with their own individual merits. Read on.


Goldwin Men’s PERTEX QUANTUM Down Parka – Oak Beige
Pertex protection provides perfection. If that’s not what their tagline or motto is, it should be.

Patagonia Fitz Roy Men’s Down Hoodie – Black
Pretty un-Patagonia, this. Looks more like something a grime artist from Cornwall would wear, and tbf we’re here for that.

Stan Ray Men’s Down Jacket – Dusk
Bit more of a heritage/Americana vibe for those of you with more understated needs.

Nanga Men’s Mountain Lodge Down Hoodie Jacket – Mocha
Crinkly on the outside, soft on the inside, this sounds like a chocolate bar. The down is sourced ethically from Poland, apparently.

And Wander Men’s Diamond Stitch Down Hoodie – Green
What is it with these brands calling big coats a ‘Down Hoodie’? It’s a jacket, or a coat. Not a hoodie. Stop it.

Montbell Men’s Alpine Down Parka Jacket – Blue
Proper royal blue this. Ideal for fans of Oldham Athletic, Rochdale, Macclesfield Town and yes, Stockport County.
