The beauty of a good quilted coat is that it has that padded, soft feel to it. Added to that, it adds stylistic flair to your outfits, a little dot on top of the i, if you will. The simplicity of an all-black outfit with a colorful quilted piece atop it can't be beat - in our books. There's something to be said for woollen outerwear, in all its gentlemanly glory. But for street rats, this is the place to be.
Make like Aladdin (if he lived in the Arctic) and get your padded down on. There are countless varieties of quilting to take your fancy - we like the idea of layering some of these up with your other tops, sweaters and coats. For instance, a lightweight quilted jacket can easily pair with a black V-neck sweater (but please, no plunge). Hairy décolletage is not a vibe.
Ideally, you can add a few separates in different tones to make up one fit - then throw one of these on top. The colorways are immaculate. Just in time too, 'tis is the season for extravagance but make it subtle.
Quilted coats for quick style points. Whether shell, down or gilet in nature, these are bound to make waves at your next social appearance.
Loro Piana Kids Stuart Cashmere-Trimmed Quilted Shell Jacket
For your little ones, albeit not with a small price tag. At USD 2425, we are not in doubt about the origins of this coat. It's a Loro Piana classic. Cashmere-trimmed for extra warmth, and in a nicely criss-crossed quilted pattern, too. Love.
Polo Ralph Lauren Quilted Recycled Ripstop Down Gilet
A gilet does wonders for a simple getup - it'll make you look like you just came fresh off the golf course. If that's what you're looking to do, of course. Some people may just think you play polo.
Dries Van Noten Padded Quilted Shell Bomber Jacket
Smooth brown, the bomber aesthetic as well as fairly thin in its composition, this jacket could do well as a contender for xmas celebration outerwear. Give us style - without trying.
Canada Goose Macmillan Logo-Appliquéd Quilted Shell Hooded Down Parka
Canada Goose does serious winter-wear and this is no exception. Take it to the slopes, even. It'll keep you toasty no matter the weather.
Arket Agyl Quilted Recycled-Shell Jacket
Recycling makes good sense, if you're after more circular ways of creating apparel. It should look good as well as do good, though, and we think this Arket piece fits the bill.
Moncler Citala Logo-Appliquéd Quilted Shell Down Jacket
They say if you say 'down jacket' three times, the Moncler logo makes an appearance as if out of thin air. They are a staple in the outwear arena, and with good reason - they take heavy down and make it look appealing. No mean feat.
Kapital Reversible Quilted Padded Shell Gilet
Kapital does whimsy to a T. This gilet is not only reversible but has a loose, basket-weave aesthetic that we seriously f with. It's not for a wilting wallflower.
FAHERTY + Doug Good Feather Bondi Reversible Quilted Organic Cotton-Jaquard Jacket
Pockets and chevron-like patterning make this a cute cover-up for any season, not just winter. Invest in this piece if you're in the market for a keeper.
STONE ISLAND Logo-Appliquéd Quilted Padded Shell Down Jacket
The hood on this looks as though it would envelop your face, much like Cartman of South Park fame. Lucky for you, it's black so it would still be passable at a Berlin bar.
Herno Quilted Shell Hooded Down Parka
Ah, yes. THE winter coat. This is the one you get when you no longer care for cold outer extremities and opt for the one jacket to rule them all: the parka that covers you from top to toe. The Herno brand was founded on a vision of freedom - quite a lovely sentiment to take into 2024.
