WORDS BY JOSEPH FURNESS
Your Facebook, right now: “OMG, Can’t wait for the next few months. Halloween, Hocus Pocus, blankets, flannels, pumpkin spiced lattes, Bonfire Night, toffee apples, The Grinch, Xmas, New Year's Eve. *snowman emoji, chocolate emoji, heart-eyes emoji*”
So we don’t need to remind you that cooler weather is coming. And a brand-new coat is likely to be your second skin for the next six months. But which AW18 coat is the one for you? Let us give you the low-down.
AW18 Puffer Coats
A Moncler puffer coat is much like Nicole Scherzinger in her Pussycat Dolls days; there are other offerings but I wouldn’t call them competition. For the man who’s destined for success.
While your friends might be calling you mandem, your mum will be asking if you’ve joined East 17 wearing this Stone Island puffer. #staynow
This Off-White puffer is going to be a celebrity favourite, we can already tell. So why not beat them to it? Be that guy.
AW18 Technical Coats
I don’t want no scrubs, but I do want this pharmaceutical-style Prada coat. For the man who tends the heartbroken.
5. Heron Preston x NASA Technical Coat
NASA x Heron Preston technical coat is a trend winner. For the man who is certainly no hidden figure — a shooting star amongst asteroids.
6. Calvin Klein 205w39nyc Technical Coat
Fireman Sam is about to be your new style inspo as Raf Simons uses his Calvin Klein label to make firefighter fits the latest mode. For the man who isn’t afraid of danger.
AW18 Leather Coats
7. Maison Margiela Leather Coat
That leather is just asking to be touched. Vegans may feel differently. This Margiela a little bit 70s — just without the casual sexism or the frizzy hair.
More Blade Runner than the film's sequel (you tried your hardest Gosling); Ridley Scott set the trends for 2019 decades ago (back in 1982 in fact). This Givenchy coat is for the man who incorporates elements of both the past and the present into his attire.
AW18 Wool Coats
Balenciaga AW18 coat offerings are dad-centric, and we adore them — especially this double-breasted wool coat. For the man who would smoke a pipe if that was still a thing.
10. Burberry Alpaca Wool Car Coat
Want to be checked out at fashion week? This Burberry Alpaca Wool Car Coat will have you covered (literally, in heritage check).
