6 Jackets That Are More Than Just an Extra Layer

Stay protected from the elements this winter.

If the 90km/h winds that whipped through Sydney city yesterday have prompted you to rethink your outerwear options for winter, you’re not alone. The outdoor adventurer aesthetic is trending beyond remote landscapes – think ski gear in the city and things you would wear on an actual hike, but the hike is just to the corner shop and back. Sounds extreme but when you think about the technical benefits these wardrobe pieces provide, like waterproofing and wind protection, it’s not such a bad idea.

Here are 6 jackets that go beyond making you look good this winter, making them well worth the investment.
