These under-$100 long puffer coats will keep you warm and dry all winter long
The extra long length will keep your legs warm, too.
It sounds like it's going to be an extra cold, windy and snowy January, so now's the time to beat the freeze with an extra-long puffer coat. The North Face, Canada Goose, Aritizia and even Lululemon carry some of the most popular outerwear options — however, they’re also some of the most expensive, as in hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars. You don't have to spend a lot to keep warm, nor should you! (If you think about it, you're only going to wear it for a few months out of the year.) Instead, invest about 90 bucks tops on one of these long winter puffer coats and you’ll be plenty warm and dry all season long — and for years to come.
We unpacked the web to find the best long puffer coats that are super cozy, long enough to hit your knees, warm and, of course, stylish. Whether you've already experienced a cold winter's day or you're preparing for it, these are our favorite picks.
Go long or go home in this maxi puffer from Steve Madden that ensures you're bundled up during the coldest days and nights. The fleece-lined coat has an all-over chevron pattern and hidden snap-and-zipper front, as well as top-entry pockets that'll keep your hands warm (and your stuff from spilling out!). Comes in nine colors including white and merlot.
"So warm! Great quality!" raved this recent reviewer. "This coat allowed me to walk miles in Manhattan at Christmas. I get cold so easy so I was worried. I felt very warm and cozy on the days it was in the teens. And the coat is cute!"
Beat the freeze with this trench coat made from quilted puffer material that sports a cozy hood, handsome collar, welt pockets and a belt to give you a waist. Great for a date or just going to buy groceries (so you won't feel like you're stuck in the frozen food aisle). Grab it now while it's almost 70% off.
One stylish admirer proclaimed: "This coat is exactly as pictured! It’s well-made and warm with plenty of style. It could be worn for an evening out, to the office, or out shopping. I ordered a small because I didn’t want it to be bulky or baggy. Glad I did. I’m a size 6 for reference. Can’t wait to wear it to work Monday!"
Staying toasty — and looking great while doing so — does not mean breaking the bank. Witness this $43 number from Orolay, the brand behind the famous "Amazon Coat." It has a unique, asymmetrical closure, drawstring hood and an invisible zipper that allows you to carry your keys, phone, wallet or any other essentials and keep your hands warm. It also comes in cool colors like Caviar and Dewberry.
"Stylish and futuristic!" exclaimed this proud parent. "My daughter absolutely loves it! She said it was so her style! She is 29. I was happy because I’m not good at picking clothing she likes. I felt I hit it out of the ballpark this time!"
This jacket boasts an A-line silhouette and stylish hem that swoops into an elegant curve along the bottom. It's chicer than your average puffer and allows for plenty of layers underneath. And it features a side slit and stand collar that makes you look graceful turned out. It also comes in black, coffee and green.
"This is the best purchase I’ve ever made on Amazon," gushed one fan. "Warm, flattering cut, pockets, stand-up collar, plus beautiful colors. This coat packs well, and in very cold weather with the addition of a sweater, will keep you stylishly toasty. Delighted with this purchase."
Cozy and lovely? Yes, the two can go together — as proven by this shiny puffer that's 60% off. This stylish wonder has an ample hood and longline silhouette that doesn't make you look bunched up. However, the coat itself bunches up nicely to stow away for a trip to cooler climes.
"I purchased this coat for a trip, and it really is more compact than most coats," said one reviewer. "The color thistle was beautiful. Has a lot of black accents so it leans more sporty." (This coat is available in black, loden and thistle.)
You get two coats in one with this baby! It's reversible — shearling-style fleece on one side, quilted puffer on the other. Wear it with the fleece on the inside to keep extra warm, or wear it on the outside for a stylish — yet unexpected look. And FYI, it comes in 20 colors.
"Bought this coat and am more than happy with it!" wrote this reviewer. "Got tons of compliments on the very first day I wore it! I bought my typical size and it fits perfectly with a little extra room for layering and it is so soft like a child’s fleece coat on the inside!"
While this coat isn't technically full-length, it's still long enough to wear with dresses and to keep your bum warm on freezing cold days. We love the diamond quilting, which makes for a fun and fresh take on the standard horizontal puffer design. This elegant number is more than just a pretty face though — this coat has oversized front pockets, a zip and button closure to keep the wind out and a hood for keeping you dry.
"The winter 3/4-length coat is roomy," said one shopper, adding that its fit is great "for heavy sweaters to wear under or a suit coat as well! Great value!"
