One of the things that I love most about being a lifelong New Jersey resident is that we experience all seasons in their truest forms. Sure, the hot summers are dreadful, but I look forward to the frigid winters when I can bundle up in my best looks. But with that comes the need for the warmest of warm coats to get through without turning into a popsicle.

A brand can claim that its jacket is warm, but it’s a matter of checking the insulation, what the coat is filled with and what added details, like a hood, make it up to par. So, when recommending the warmest coats, I kept those factors in mind. Just a heads up: Super-warm coats don’t come cheap. After all, they’re typically made with high-quality materials that provide true warmth and trap heat. But consider it an investment that you’ll have for years (and many New Jersey winters!) to come.

17 of the Warmest Winter Coats You Can Buy Right Now

1. Our Favorite: Available in sizes XXS to 5XL, the beloved Orolay windproof down is made with Responsible Down Standard (RDS)-certified down and duck feathers for seriously warm insulation.

2. Ideal Insulation: With a detachable faux-fur hood, fleece lining and waterproof fabric, this $70 insulated coat strives to keep you warm and dry.

3. Surprisingly Warm: Although this Amazon Essentials coat is light in weight, it offers heavyweight warmth, thanks to its fully lined and insulated structure.

4. Handy Heat: This Columbia hooded jacket includes the brand’s patented Heat Reflective lining, so the outdoors are no match for warmth management.

5. Capable Collar: With a longline length that goes past the knees, this vegan down coat has a stand collar so you can protect your face from whipping winds.

6. Splurge Worthy: The price tag is high, but the warmth is worth it when you have a Canada Goose parka that has an adjustable collar, cuffs, placket and side vents so you can control the coverage.
