A tried-and-true outdoor recreation brand, the North Face always brings its A-game when it comes to outerwear, and the long parka is one durable coat that will last across multiple winters. Lightweight, the Triple C Parka is insulated with 700-fill goose down, which is dispersed across quilted chambers to keep you nice and toasty, and has a water-repellant finish for when the snow strikes. Even more, it features a two-way front zipper—so you can unzip your coat from the top or bottom—and a detachable hood.

Say goodbye to shivering for good with Canada Goose’s Byward Parka. Each coat is filled with a whopping 750-fill, responsibly-sourced duck down, making it ideal for temperatures as low as -13 degrees Fahrenheit. While on the pricier end of long puffer coats, high-abrasion areas of the jacket are constructed out of Cordura—a synthetic and cotton blend—rendering the jacket durable and resistant against friction, so the jacket will last for winters to come.

In total, the jacket boasts seven pockets, five exterior and two interior, to store your essentials (no purse needed). What’s neat? The interior has two straps, so you can wear the coat like a backpack when indoors. All of these features make this coat worth the dollar bills.

Lands’ End Down Maxi coat is a quality and durable puffer. Hitting the mid-calf and filled with 600-fill down, the Maxi winter coat will keep you warm in temperatures as low as -25 degrees. While very long, the jacket features zippered vents to make it easy to move around and cuffs to further lock in warmth. It’s the best long puffer for the price.

If you’re “wundering” around, we’d recommend Lululemon’s Wunder Puff long jacket. Insulated with 600-fill responsible goose down, the Wunder makes cold weather not as much of a biggie. Puffer coats can lack form, but this one comes with a cinch-able waist and is constructed out of a polyester shell that makes for a water- and wind-resistant barrier. Plus, it’s machine washable, so you can throw this in the washer when things get sweaty. No walk or stroll is too cold with this jacket.

For an eco-friendly purchase, Tentree’s Cloud Shell Long Puffer keeps the environment in mind. Each jacket is made and insulated with recycled polyester (it’ll keep you warm down to five degrees Fahrenheit), and for every item purchased, Tentree plants ten trees, so you know your purchase is being used for environmental good. The two-way front zipper makes zipping and taking off the coat a breeze. Plus, it fits on the roomier side, so you can layer with sweaters, knits, and turtlenecks for extra warmth.

Aritzia’s Super Puff will make you feel like you have super powers. The power: keeping extra toasty when the tundra hits. Water-repellent, wind-resistant, and filled with responsibly sourced, 700-fill goose down, the Super Puff Long will defend you from nature’s toughest elements and temperatures as low as -40 degrees. While some jackets may feel restricting, this one has a roomy fit and buttoned vents, making layering and walking actually possible. Another perk, this coat comes in 31 colors (yes, you heard that correctly), from sea blue to copper red to basic black.
