Nike Tech Fleece Hoodie
PRICE: $110
Buy It Here: Nike.com
Let’s start with a no-brainer. Tech fleece was literally designed for the on-the-go guy or girl. It locks in warmth without adding weight, and Nike uses the innovative fabric in multiple new ways this season to keep you looking fresh for whatever outdoor adventure you’re seeking.
The Arrivals Halstrom Modular Snow Parka
PRICE: $585
Buy It Here: Thearrivals.com
Founded by a former architect, The Arrivals mixes progressive design and innovative materials—and this snow parka is no exception. Designed for transitional and deep winter wear, the jacket’s breathable, ponte-bonded shell provides wind and waterproof protection. If that wasn't enough, the Italian Toscana fur, removable hood and thermal-insulated, quilted body liner provide multiple options for different temperatures during the winter season.
Uniqlo HEATTECH Tights
PRICE: $14.90
Buy It Here: Uniqlo.com
Did you go overboard with the distressed denim trend this year? No worries—just wear these tights from Uniqlo under your jeans and you’ll be good to go. They’re softer than ever, so they feel great on dry winter skin. Plus, they come in a dope camouflage print that you can flex through those ripped jeans you thought you’d have to stow away until next spring.
Palace Puffa Jacket
PRICE: $302
Buy It Here: Endclothing.com
London knows a thing or two about grey, gloomy weather so you can trust that Palace came correct with this jacket. It’s fully water repellant and features a nice, low-key puff insulation. It also comes equipped with side zippers, just in case you need to ventilate. That said, the product description on their site probably sums up the jacket better than we ever could: “This jacket keeps you warm fam.”
Comme des Garçons SHIRT x Supreme x Timberland Boots
PRICE: $238
Buy It Here: Supremenewyork.com
Of course, Supreme has one of the top 10 winter products this season. In fact, they might have the most hyped winter boot of the year. The legendary New York City streetwear label teamed up with the equally cool Japanese Comme des Garçons SHIRT to put their spin on the classic Timberland 6-inch boot. While the boot is definitely not your standard Timb, the updates are subtle and come in the form of a polka-dot upper, a graphic print on the back cushion, and a small Supreme tag.
Givenchy Shearling, Leather and Neoprene Jacket
PRICE: $4,330
Buy It Here: Mrporter.com
Who said warmth couldn’t be luxe? Givenchy went ahead and mixed shearling—an extra warm sheepskin that’s been used for thousands of years to fight the cold—with the modern touch of neoprene sleeves, coupled with some luxe leather accents to give it a contemporary look. It’s one of the coolest flight jackets we’ve seen this season, and it’s definitely one of the warmest.
adidas Climaheat Rocket Boost Sneakers
PRICE: $145
Buy It Here: adidas.com
If you’re not ready to leave your sneakers behind this winter, adidas has got you covered. This pair of kicks is designed with their climaheat insulation to keep your feet warm and toasty. On top of that, they also feature adidas boost soles so you don’t have to give up the comfy, cushioned feel when the temperature drops. To finish things off, the sneaker has a stretchy ripstop upper and a HEATGUARD collar to trap in extra warmth. All of this in one sneaker? You’d better believe it.
Puma x ICNY Reflective Windbreaker
PRICE: $200
Buy It Here: icnysport.com
Two brands with backgrounds rooted in performance teamed up on this truly unique jacket. The standout feature isn’t its laundry list of warm fabrics, adjustable cuffs, or built-in vents—it’s the all-over print. A reflective pattern was laser-etched across the body of the jacket that illuminates when hit with light, altering the color of the garment from a cool grey to a brighter winter white.
Reigning Champ Stow Away Hood Jacket
PRICE: $238
Buy It Here: Reigningchamp.com
From Reigning Champ’s recent Sea to Sky collection, this jacket takes a classic silhouette from the Canadian brand and introduces performance fabric from Polartec. Handcrafted in the Great White North, the jacket is made from a cutting-edge water-resistant nylon that stretches for added mobility.
J.Crew Explorer Down Parka
PRICE: $399
Buy It Here: JCrew.com
While J.Crew is known more for stylish, preppy goods than innovative outwear, they surprised everyone this season with their Explorer Down Parka. The piece combines lightweight nylon and down insulation to keep you protected from the elements. And as the name suggests, this jacket is versatile enough to wear on a night out or on a day trip to the mountains.
