A sturdy coat that will keep out the cold is an essential in every man’s wardrobe, especially this year, when pandemic restrictions mean that many of us are spending more time outdoors.

Whether you’re walking the dog, stretching your legs at lunchtime or embarking on a bracing hike, a puffer jacket is the ideal outerwear, offering maximum warmth without the weight.
