The Right Outerwear for What’s Out There
The best jacket for you is the one that will provide the most comfort for what you’re doing. First consider which activities (or chores or errands) will take you outside most often, then choose something with the level of warmth or versatility you need.

Best jackets for multiple seasons, milder temperatures, and layering up for long adventures.
These jackets defy seasonality thanks to their adaptability. They’re designed to provide lightweight comfort and weather protection when worn alone, and layer well when cooler air comes along, making them some of the best jackets for unpredictable weather.

3 Reasons to Choose Down
Ounce for ounce, it’s nature’s best insulation. Ours is specially treated to repel water.
1. Light and Warm: Delivers a superior warmth-to-weight ratio that synthetics can’t replicate
2. Compressible: Stows easily in a backpack, giving you an easy option to carry an extra layer
3. Long Lasting: Can last for years without degrading, with proper care
3 Reasons to Choose Synthetic
Down-like comfort with no feathers and even more water resistance.
1. Keeps Insulating When Wet: Performs better than down in very wet environments and damp climates
2. Hypoallergenic: Won’t cause reactions in people who are sensitive to down
3. Easy Care: Unlike down, synthetics don’t require special care to clean and maintain
