Tweed and down reversible coat, £489, uk.maje.com
The thing about a classic Nylon padded jacket is that, while it’s undoubtedly the warmest option out there, it doesn’t look particularly smart if you are wearing it anywhere other than for a walk in the local park. A hybrid coat – such as Everlane’s velvety coated puffer jacket (£131, everlane.com) – would sacrifice none of the insulation, but can be worn out to dinner, or to work, without reading as too casual. Maje’s reversible tweed and down coat (pictured) is one of the best out there this year in my opinion; it features a nipped waist, leather piping, and a chic checked fabric on the outside, or you can flip it round to show the classic black quilt underneath.
