The North Face

Defdown GTX Parka - Men's

For those who spend winter amidst heavy snow and sloppy wintry mixes there's The North Face's Defdown GTX Parka. Insulated with warm 550-fill down insulation and protected by a Gore-Tex membrane, this parka gives you winter warmth and trusted weather protection all in one stylish package. The durable face fabric stops cold wind in its tracks to keep you warm on your commute, and the faux-fur ruff around the hood disrupts cold air-flow to keep your face from freezing over. You can also cinch the hood tightly when blizzard conditions abound, then remove it easily when it's nothing but blue skies.

When the weather turns and things freeze over again, internal cuff gaiters keep the snow out as you scrape off a car or shovel the driveway, while handwarmer pockets lie waiting to welcome frigid fingers. There's also two alpine pockets, and an internal media pocket, which will be well protected inside your parka with a magnetic storm flap keeping cold winds from sneaking in the main zipper.
