A bunch of super warm puffers and parkas that will turn you into Elsa. The cold? Will never bother you again.

1. A windproof parka so warm, you'll wonder how you ever faced the cold without it. "You were so brave" —you to your past self.

Promising review: "This coat is no joke. The coldest temperature I tested it out was 9° and I did not feel like I was freezing at all! I even tried to wear with just a t-shirt, no sweaters/layers underneath, to see if I felt cold...nothing. No cold! Boomshakalaka! It's also so stylish, roomy, has a thousand pockets (goodbye purse!) and looks different from all the rest out there." —Zhure

Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (available in sizes XXS-XXL and in five colors).

2. A lightweight hooded coat that can be folded down and stored in the (included) pouch, without taking up a crap ton of space in your carry-on. Guess this is permission to pack more shoes...

Uniqlo

Psst, the hood is removable!

Promising review: "This ultra light down jacket is perfect for every day use and travel. It's very warm and light weight, and I love how it can be packed into a small pouch so it won't take up too much space in a suitcase or bag. Plus, the slight a-line design is a great look." —connie

Get it from Uniqlo for $99.90 (available in sizes XXS-XXL and in five colors).

3. A packable chevron-quilted down coat capable of the unthinkable – keeping you stylish, chic, and actually warm. Now get that #ootd hashtag ready.

Amazon

Promising review: "I just moved to central Iowa and we recently had -40° weather. This coat had me nervous because it appears to be extremely thin, but it is actually super warm! It goes down to my knees and up to my nose if zipped all the way to the top, which helped when I was moving in that terrible weather. I would recommend this to anyone and might even get another in a different color!" —Rhiannon S.

Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in sizes XS-XL and in nine colors).

4. An oversized parka made from 56 renewed plastic bottles and 100% recycled PrimaLoft insulation. In English, this eco-friendly coat will help you withstand frigid temps of 0°F to 20°F.

Everlane

Promising review: "This coat arrived just in time for a big storm in Montreal. It was days after days of -35 weather, but I did't care because I had this coat to keep me warm. It's baggy so you have just enough space to put a sweater underneath. The big pockets are super convenient. I'm recommending this 100% if you live in a cold, windy, northern city. Plus, it's made of plastic bottles and recycled polyester!!" —Montrealer

Get it from Everlane for $165 (traditional retail value for $325, available in sizes XXS-XL and in two colors).

5. A utility parka with a boxy and oversized silhouette, making it the perfect piece of outerwear to comfortably drape over your bulkiest sweaters.

Amazon, amazon.com

Fun fact! Alpha industries (the brand for le parka featured above) was originally a contractor for the United States military.

Promising review: "This is a VERY warm jacket. I got to wear it in -29C (-20F) this past winter and never regretted the purchase." –Evgeniya Rand

Get it from Amazon for $192.50+ (available in sizes XS-XL and in four colors).

6. A waterproof ski jacket you'll want to pack for your next frigid vacation. Not only will this keep you warm and dry, but it is also designed with pockets large enough to hold your most essential items (like...your phone).

amazon.com

Promising review: "I recently took a trip to Iceland, where the average daytime temperature was in the low 30s to low 40s (Fahrenheit), and it was forecast to rain on and off for our whole trip with the possibility of snow. This jacket was perfect for my needs! It was totally waterproof and very warm, roomy enough to wear thick layers underneath, and the pockets were easily accessible and held my phone, keys, and sunglasses with room to spare. The breast pocket looks small, but it is large enough to hold a smartphone, which was useful when I had to wear a harness around my waist that made the waist pockets inaccessible." —toastisyummy

Get it from Amazon for $78.89 (available in sizes S-XXL and in six colors).

7. A snow jacket that might just encourage you to get out there and build some snowmen. This is even designed with thumbholes, meaning you can slip on some gloves and rest assured that no snow will creep in.

Target

Promising review: "SUPER WARM! I bought this earlier this week when it was only 6° out and my other jacket wasn't keeping me warm. I was pleasantly surprised at how toasty I was! It's truly windproof, extremely warm for winter in MN, and a great length to keep my bum warm in a cold car. I loved the extra details like the cuffs with thumb holes that slip under my mittens." —Kristy

Get it from Target for $59.99 (available in sizes XS-XXL and in three colors).

8. A mid-length jacket perfect for days when the weather can best be described as "my face hurts". A warm hat + thick socks + this coat = the best cold weather defense.

Amazon

Promising review: "I'm originally from Arizona and am now living in Chicago, so wintertime literally hurts. I purchased this jacket and what a difference it has made! It's so warm, and I can withstand below zero with wind when I add a layer underneath. The fit is perfect and it doesn't make me feel all big and puffy. I am no longer afraid of the cold Chicago winter!" —Natalie

Get it from Amazon for $118.57+ (available in sizes 1X-3X and in six colors).

9. A responsibly-sourced goose down puffer with a detachable hood + water-repellent exterior fabric. OH! And did I mention this is engineered to keep you warm in -22°F weather? Because it is.

Aritzia

Promising review: "Love this coat! It is unbelievably warm. I got the black shiny one and receive compliments on it all the time. It’s still a decently loose fit and I can wear thick sweaters and hoodies underneath without it feeling too snug." —Natalie R.

Get it from Aritzia for $228 (available in sizes XXXS-L and in eight colors).

10. A hooded coat available in seven neutral colors that won't clash with anything in your closet. Yes, you'll finally be able to rock those highlighter yellow gloves your grandma knit you (definitely not a personal story).

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: "I was notified by my employer that I would be traveling to Boston to complete training for two weeks, arriving January 3. That's right, California gal to Boston in January, the coldest month of the year with an average low of 22°F. So I purchased this coat for WARMTH, and I was ABSOLUTELY warm! ME WARM?! YES! I was shocked that this coat did what it said it was designed to do! This is a phenomenal price for a very stylish, lightweight coat." —Alexandria

Get it from Amazon for $89.99+ (available in sizes XS-3X and in seven colors).

11. A water-resistant puffer with an adjustable waistband AKA wave goodbye to compromising your hourglass silhouette for warmth.

Nordtstrom

Promising review: "Just wow! The fit is great, the length is perfect and covers my rear end, and the cinch at the waist keeps me from looking like the Michelin Tire man! But I saved the best for last — it's toasty warm. Like, Minnesota when it's -10° warm!" —MinnesotaNordy1

Get it from Nordstrom for $175 (available in sizes 1X-3X).

12. A three-quarter length coat that laughs in the face of cold (up to -40°). If you're looking to make a worthy investment, say "ding ding ding" because you have a winner.

L. L. Bean

Promising review: "I love this coat! Living in the Midwest means cold winters and I am very intolerant to the cold. This coat blocks the wind and keeps me very warm. I wore it for about a half hour during a light snow and stayed dry. The detachable hood is easy to take on and off (zipper and small buttons) but it is a little too big for me. It does the job when needed though. I wear a size small and it's actually a little loose on me, which is perfect for when I need to layer up." —MidWestGirl01

Get it from L.L. Bean for $239 (available in sizes XS-XL and petite sizes and five colors).

13. A PrimaLoft puffer guaranteed to become your "I wear this every single day" coat. From hikes and work to happy hour, this will become your new go-to.

Amazon

Promising review: "This coat is toasty warm and quite stylish. I bought it to take with me on a hiking weekend and it did all I needed, keeping me both dry and warm in December weather. I like it so much that I now wear it daily, with jeans and dresses alike." —K. Shorrock

Get it from Amazon for $79 (available in sizes XS-XXL and in three colors).

14. A cropped puffer featuring an insulated hood to keep your noggin feeling toastier than toast. It's made from PrimaLoft insulation to keep the rest of your upper-half feeling toasty, too.

Everlane

This puffer is made from 47 renewed plastic bottles and recycled materials, and is best for temps between 20°F to 40°F.

Promising review: "This is now my favorite coat I've ever owned. It's versatile (I can dress it up or down) and it's insanely comfortable and warm. I originally bought it for a trip to NYC and I can't wait to wear it there! It's been hovering around 0 degrees where I'm from the past few days, with wind chills to around -30 degrees, and it's kept me warm! It can get a small draft from underneath (since it is a short length coat), but I keep my hands in my pockets most of the time when I'm outside anyway and then I don't get that draft at all." —Liv Ma

Get it from Everlane for $125 (traditional retail value at $295, available in sizes XXS-XL and in three colors).

15. A winter jacket with Omni-Heat lining to keep you warm, BUT! It's also super lightweight, making it the perfect layer for skiing and other tortuous snow-related activities.

Amazon, amazon.com

Clearly, I don't ski.

Promising review: "This is an excellent ski jacket! I love how lightweight it is. I have worn this with a base layer underneath and another light long sleeve layer, and it's perfect. I have also worn this around town in -35° wind chill and never felt the wind through the jacket. My top half was warm even though everything else was freezing that day!" —JetChris

Get it from Amazon for $70.32+ (available in sizes XS-XL).

16. A thigh-length parka you'll be able to quickly slip on before leaving the house. In a rush? Rest assured that this beauty will keep you WARM — no matter the weather.

Target

Promising review: "I wanted a serious winter coat for winter walking in frigid temps/wind chill conditions. Enter this beauty! Wow! It's flattering, functional, warm but not too warm, and roomy but with a silhouette. To me, this coat looks like it cost way more than what I paid. Plus, FREE two-day shipping." —Dev

Get it from Target for $59.99 (available in sizes XS-XXL and in four colors).

17. A packable puffer featuring gorgeous peplum detailing for a look that is both functioning and unique. And that blue hue? Fabulous dah-ling.

Lane Bryant

Get it from Lane Bryant for $71.39 (originally $118.99, available in sizes 10-20).

If only Sir Snow had access to this list, am I right?
