WINTER JACKET BUYING GUIDE – GET THROUGH THE FREEZING WINTER WITH EASE
The chilly winds and the snow.
The intense longing of hot cocoa.
Take out the blankets, light on the fire.
It's time to put on your winter attire.
The prediction of our favorite show has indeed come true! They kept telling us ‘Winter is coming!’ And now winters are here!
And with this cold weather, comes the winter shopping for warm clothes and jackets.
With the arrival of the months of winters, it is about time you get yourself the right winter jacket that will keep you warm as you make your way through the snowy streets in the cold temperature.
The question that probably popped up in your head must be, “How do I get the right winter jacket?”
Leave that on us; this winter jacket buying guide will help you know just what to look for
1. Pick the perfect fit.
First things first, pick the jacket that is just your size.
Now, you can check how your new and about-to-be purchase is going to fit in different ways. Follow these steps, and you will be good to go.
Trick 1: Look out for the shoulder seams – they better be aligned with your shoulders, or else it's a no-no…unless you are going for the ones that have a design like that.
Trick 2: Stretch your arms above your head to check the length of the coat. One way to spot a too-small jacket is to check if it rises above your waist and if you feel any spots that are tight or restrict your movement. You oughta keep that back.
Trick 3: Stretch your arms out to see how long the sleeves are. They should stop just near the wrist bone. If they stop above your wrist, you know you need to put it back.
Why is the size important? Well, think about it; you wouldn’t want to walk around in a jacket that is either too small and struggle with keeping yourself covered properly, or too big and not stay warm enough.
So rule number 1; check the size. On to the next one.
2.Check out the insulation.
What is insulation? It is the material that keeps you secured from the shivering cold. There are three types of insulations for a winter coat:
- Down – the classic ones that do the perfect job keeping you warm. They are lightweight and compressible. One drawback is that it doesn’t work well against moisture.
It will perform best if you live somewhere dry and cold.
- Synthetic fibers are the ones you need if you live in a place with a damp and cold climate as they are great holding up against moisture. The drawback, however, is that they don’t last too long.
- Pile fabric – the water-resistant insulator that will work for you if you don’t want something thick for the winter.
Insulators decide what you are protected from, but your needs dictate which one is the best one for you.
3.Look out for the pockets.
No matter what happens, you must not overlook the importance of pockets and what they can do for you. Whether you want to keep your essentials like mobile phones and wallets, or you just want to keep your hand from turning into ice due to the numbing weather.
4.Look at its zippers and cuffs.
Sometimes jackets are waterproof, but the zippers and cuffs are not, which is why it is absolutely necessary to look at them. Get the right cuffs to guard your hands against the cold, and look for a waterproof zipper for some added warmth.
5.Get a high-quality jacket.
A few things to examine to check its quality:
- The stitching should not go through the insulation in the coat.
- Make sure no thread is hanging out.
- There should be no holes in the coat.
Jackets you need to check out.
Did you think that was the end? Nope.
