Like most people in lockdown, my weekend plans suddenly involve long winter walks. I love a long, blustering walk, but I wouldn’t typically choose to spend so much time outside in January. Whether you’re walking in Hampstead Heath, Hackney Marshes, or the Highlands, you’ll need practical items that will keep you warm until spring arrives.
If you want outfits that will keep you toasty but are a little more interesting than a boring fleece and thermals, below, you’ll find seven items that will see you through a winter of outdoor activities in style. The first essential item you’ll need is a coat that will act like your very own portable heater, so I recommend you start with a puffer coat. Then, you’ll need all the classic winter staples for layering: chunky boots, thick knitwear, and accessories. However, I’ve also outlined small details to look out for within these categories.
So before you plan your next excursion, regardless of the weather, keep scrolling for the items that will keep you warm this winter.
