Winter Must Haves: The Humble Padded Jacket

If I was to choose one signature piece of clothing to get me through the cold, winter months, it would undoubtedly be a classic padded jacket.

Of course, there’s plenty of other must-have winter wardrobe winners too but I reckon this is the one item that I’d be lost without. It’s a real go-to of mine.

I just picked up this smart black Barbour International hooded style from the mens zone at Very. It’s a modern take on a fairly classic style and features 2 integrated welt pockets for extra warmth and comfort.

At the moment, I’ve been teaming it with a pair of black sweats since I’ve not been anywhere much but you can style it up with some dark blue jeans or a shirt for a slightly smart look too.

A simple quilted coat is the ideal thing to throw on whether your heading to pick up the shopping, for a weekend walk or (rules permitting) are off to meet a couple of mates down the pub.

    • It’s actually pretty reasonable compared to a lot of similar brands who have styles that retail at double the price of this one from Barbour, that’s why I chose it

  • Every year it seems the price of clothing continues to go up more and more, but the good news is there are many cheap clothing stores that carry a number of well-designed clothing for anyone in the family. If you're in a position where you cannot afford to shop for the name brands, then there are many options available.
