Like most people currently living in tier 2 or tier 3, my weekend plans suddenly involve long winter walks, as there are varying restrictions on indoor activities. I love a long, blustering walk, but I wouldn’t typically choose to spend so much time outside in December. Whether you’re walking in Hampstead Heath, Hackney Marshes, or the Highlands, you’ll need practical items that will keep you warm over the course of winter.
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.
