Stay warm in even the coldest part of winter with coats designed to shield you from frigid temperatures. The warmest winter coats have a polyester shell and are usually insulated with duck or goose down. Down is the warmest choice because its clusters trap heat, but down alternatives are a great budget and animal-free option that keeps you feeling toasty on colder days. Wool is also a great alternative to down and is a great alternative if you are not into wearing puffy jackets.
Here are 8 big coats you should consider for cold winters:
