21 Amazing Winter Coats To Buy Now So You Aren’t Freezing Later

It’s that time of year again—you know, the time when I stop splurging on strappy sandals and flimsy dresses and start focusing my funds on coats, boots and other cold-weather gear. This year, in particular, I’m on the hunt for a few good winter jackets I can fit seamlessly into my wardrobe without sacrificing style. In my hunt, I’ve rounded up the best women’s winter coats of the season, and I’m kindly sharing them with you, too. I’ve already ordered my faves, so I’m not worried about my size selling out.

As a New Yorker, I would love to have just one winter coat and save space in my very tiny apartment closet, but unfortunately, I’ve found a few different varieties that I consider to be absolute must-haves. I love puffer coats, wool coats or fleece-lined options when the air is crisp, but not downright freezing. That said, when it comes to dead-of-winter cold, I need especially warm coats that can withstand the terrible weather, so my winter jackets need to be heavy AF.

My more heavy-duty winter coats have details like zippered pockets, removable hoods, faux fur and (more often than not) some sort of cinched waist detailing, so I don’t give off puffy snowman vibes. I still want to look cute, after all! Growing up, I swore all I needed was my North Face fleece half-zip and maybe a puff on chilly days, but as I’ve grown older, I’ve come to appreciate coats not just for warmth, but for style as well. A gorgeous wool coat completes a winter look like no other accessory can—and for the most part, it’s the only piece of your outfit people will see. Trust me, there’s nothing worse than throwing a coat you hate over an outfit you love and completely covering it up. Total vibe-killer!

Also, let’s address the elephant in the room: The best winter coats aren’t cheap. While I’ve come across some incredible under-$200 options (that you’ll see below!) in my search, the truth of the matter is that many high-end coat brands have developed special fabrics guaranteed to keep heat in and cold out, and if you live in a particularly chilly climate, investing once can keep you warm for years, if not forever. There are great options in the $500-$1000 price range that can keep you toasty in the coldest of weather—but of course, not everyone needs that level of insulation in their winter coat, nor does everyone want to shell out the coin.

The good news is, there’s a surefire way to achieve a similar level of warmth for less, and that’s the art of ~layering~. Throw on a sweater and layer up with a fleece, followed by a puffer or other lightweight, insulated jacket. If you’ve got a wool coat that fits over all that as the finishing touch, you’re aces. Some people prefer to invest in layers they can wear together or apart as needed, but others don’t see the point in buying multiple warm-ish coats when they could buy one winter coat that gets the job done for the same price of a few layers added up. There’s truly no wrong way to do it, so long as you’re happy with your cold-weather options.

Shopping for the right winter coat can be overwhelming with so many jackets on the market, so allow me to narrow down your search. Below, I’ve rounded up 21 gorgeous coats, all of which offer different levels of warmth and will suit different styles. There are a few fun puffers, some serious, long parkas and of course, a little bit of fluffy, fuzzy goodness thrown in for good measure. Read on for the best women’s winter coats of the season.
