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 FW18 coat is the one for you? Let us give you the low-down.
FW18 Down 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.
A Drake go-to, this Stone Island puffer jacket will Take Care of you this winter. Sorry. We couldn’t help it.
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.
FW18 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
The fire brigade 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.
FW18 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.
FW18 Wool Coats
Balenciaga FW18 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).
