A Classic Overcoat

The first winter jacket staple that you need to stay fashionable year after year is the classic overcoat. This long jacket - between thigh and knee-length - is a lightweight winter jacket designed to be layered over shirts, jumpers or even suits. You will know that when you buy this jacket, it will never go out of style, so investing slightly more money into this choice is a good idea!

Overcoats can be styled with virtually anything, from suits to a polo neck and even tracksuits! You will be surprised at how great an overcoat can look with a plain hoodie and joggers. When you have an overcoat in your wardrobe, you will always have the perfect coat option to add to your outfit. Go for a classic black, a beige or even a faint check pattern for a timeless choice.

A Waterproof Down Jacket

Next up, we have a waterproof down jacket. This is the sensible choice out of all of our stylish winter jackets. For days when it is freezing cold and raining, or if you are heading out for the day and want to make sure you stay comfortable, this is the right option. Plus, they can look great with jeans or joggers.

Waterproof down jackets are also known as puffer jackets to some people! There are some very expensive waterproof down jackets out there, so if you are looking for a more affordable option, head towards a men’s puffer jacket sale. A waterproof down jacket might not be the right option for your dressier days or evenings, but it is certainly a stylish and practical choice that everyone needs in their wardrobe.

A Borg Jacket

Next up we have a borg jacket! In the past, borg (a short and thick fur-like material) was used inside coats and jackets to help with warmth. However, in recent years, this material has been used all over coats and has become extremely popular! They come in so many colours, although brown, camel and black are the most classic that you know will not go out of fashion.

Plus, borg jackets can be worn with dressier or more casual outfits and they will still look amazing. If you do not like the full borg look, then a denim jacket with a borg collar is a great alternative that works really well when layered with a t-shirt and open shirt.

A Heavy Overshirt

Layering is essential in the winter months, so another must-have in your winter wardrobe is a heavy overshirt. The safest choice is a check pattern, or you can experiment with different coloured denim overshirts. Make sure to choose an overshirt with pockets to add important detail to the outfit. Another tip is to limit the layering to 2-3 layers, as otherwise you are likely to be uncomfortable and the outfit will start to look slightly bulky.

In the winter months, wearing a t-shirt on its own for a night out simply will not cut it in terms of warmth! So, you can wear a really simple all-black outfit then completely bring it to life with an overshirt. You will look effortlessly stylish without having to spend ages deciding what to wear. A denim jacket is something that you could also wear as the material will keep you warm. A denim jacket is a travel essential that every man needs.

Now is the perfect time to invest in your newest winter coats and with these options, you will be wearing them year after year. Whether you need something dressy or more casual, you will always have the right choice in your wardrobe after this! Buying new winter jackets does not have to cost a fortune as you can find great pieces no matter your budget. Keeping warm without compromising on style can be easy, as these winter jackets prove!
