When the trees have lost all their leaves and the wind chills you down to your bones, it’s time to switch out your fall jacket for a serious winter jacket or parka. Finding the right coat to keep you warm in sub-zero freezing temperatures can be a challenge, as there are many different aspects to consider. You may be looking for a jacket that is water repellent, but it may not be very good at insulating. You may be in search for a parka that is filled with down feathers, but it may be too short to keep more of your body warm. Therefore, Arctic Bay has put together a huge collection of men’s and women’s down parkas and jackets, specifically designed for Canadian winters. These men’s and women’s parkas and winter jackets from Canada are sought after around the world by people in cold climates, and their benefits are undeniable. Here are some examples of what Arctic Bay offers to keep you warm this winter.

How to Choose the Best Parka for Winter?

Style

Warm parkas can be very stylish options for the winter, and there are many options by Arctic Bay that can keep you warm and looking great. Make sure that you do not put fashion before function if you live in a climate with super cold temperatures. It won’t matter how good you look if you are freezing. Winter coats come in different lengths, so make sure that it is long enough to keep you very warm. Choosing a coat with a hood is also a good idea because it will come in handy when the wind picks up.

Fit

When choosing a coat, make sure that there are no gaps for cold air to get in. You will want some room to layer sweaters underneath, especially during the coldest months of the winter. You should leave enough room for items such as thermal underwear, a sweater or two, and collar room for a scarf. You should also make sure that the sleeves go up to your wrist and close up. If this area is open, wind will drift up your sleeves and make you feel extremely cold. Also choose a jacket with a high neck to keep the wind out.

Fill Power

Fill power and material determine how warm the coat will be. Although fleece lining or fur wraps are helpful, you should choose a coat that has the appropriate fill power. Goose and duck down are the best options for maximum insulation. You can opt for synthetics, which do a good job and are more water repellant, but when it comes to being warm, down feathers are the best.
