Even though 2015 was the warmest year ever recorded, that doesn't mean that climate change won't eventually smack us in the face with a blizzard or a deep freeze as winter finally hits its stride. In fact, if you have coats sitting in the depths of your closet because of an uncomfortably mild winter you, like me, are probably hoping for a few sub zero temperatures just to pull out your latest and greatest outerwear pieces. Few things are better than topping off an outfit with a great coat or jacket that looks good but also keeps you warm. The only issue is that most functional winter outerwear tends to be unseemly. It's bulky, utilitarian, cut too generously and done in colors you wouldn't dream of wearing if the weather didn't require them. Some brands have pulled it off though.

So in the hopes that Old Man Winter actually shows up soon we've picked out some of the best that pull double duty to keep you looking cool while also keeping you warm. This is the Best Outerwear To Actually Survive A Deep Freeze.
