What are winters like where you live? These past few Seattle winters I’ve missed California more than ever, but I’m trying to get outside as much as possible (although I reeeeally don’t want to sometimes), for my mental health and overall wellbeing. It’s a lot easier when you have the right gear. If you’re struggling with the cold weather like me, one of these sustainable winter coats may be just what you need to get through the rest of the season. Take a look!
WRAY’s Roberta puffer jacket in Parakeet which has a tie belt and quilted texture.
Grön Kulle’s Noor coat, along with all slow fashion offerings, are designed, cut, and sewn in California using deadstock fabrics. The yin-yang design also comes in teddy, sherpa, and neutral styles!
Our directory prAna offers lots of eco friendly activewear, including the Hellebore Jacket in Baked Blush, which is such an on point color block.
MAIUM’s Original Coat in Reed Green is designed in Amsterdam (by people who really know the pain of a constant drizzle) and made of recycled plastic.
Universal Standard’s 4-in-1 Hybrid Puffer comes in electric blue or black. The removable hood and skirt allows it to be a standard puffer jacket, long coat, and hooded or not.
I can’t get over how cozy Cuyana’s wrap puffer, made of recycled polyester, is! Pictured here in Sand, it also comes in black.
Three words: floral. bomber. jacket. HERA studio makes small batch statement pieces with natural, upcycled, and vintage fabrics. Also love their velvet jackets…
… Not to mention the cherry crop jacket with wavy checks. This would be the perfect “winter” jacket if I still lived in Los Angeles.
Lastly, backbeatco’s organic cotton puffer jacket is cozy and not too heavy, but warm enough for winter walks.
Which design is on your wishlist? If none of these sustainable coats are up your alley, don’t forget to search Etsy or even on Instagram hashtags like #sustainableclothing or #handmadeclothing to find the perfect cold weather staple sustainably!
