Winter’s in full swing and is there anything more effective than a puffer coat to banish the chill? Specifically, one that’s been designed especially to deal with low temperatures and freezing winds. Giving both style and practicality in equal measure, it’s no wonder The North Face is the go-to winter coat brand for many of us, from dog walkers and hikers to the fashion pack and celebs, too. One super-fan, who owns a number of The North Face jackets is Emily Ratajkowski, who’s often spotted swaddled in a puffer coat. She will probably be very pleased, then, to hear that there are some truly excellent The North Face Black Friday deals this year.
But these jackets aren’t popular just because they look great, oh no, The North Face are built for purpose. Note EmRata’s pink 96 Retro Nupste jacket, which is not just down-filled for maximum warmth but is water repellent, breathable and packable, too. And whilst I won’t be scaling any snowcapped mountains anytime soon, I am, however, battling with ice cold, pre 8am morning temperatures on my way to work (just as treacherous, I know) and have been surprised at just how warm a puffer jackets actually are – I‘d even throw in the phrase ‘game changer’.
So, whether you’re after a dog walking jacket, planning on braving the elements for your next hike, or, just want a stylish winter coat that’ll keep you properly warm – The North Face has you covered – literally. From the sell-out 96 Retro Nupste puffer to the TNF 2000 and even a leopard print jacket that’s set to sell out fast, here’s how to shop The North Face coats loves by the A list at up to 50% off…
