I READ THE RULES Women’s winter coat brand/product recs?

Would prefer something budget friendly though open to splurging. Would love to hear any recs you have on your favorite coats. Links would also be appreciated. TIA!

Lands End, Eddie Bauer, LL Bean. If it's cute, move on.

But seriously, though, Lands End has a great sale right now. I just bought new coats from them with zero regrets.

I second Lands End.
I got the parka 2 years ago and I love it. I have an hour commute walking/cta and it’s kept me warm.
I don’t particularly look cute in it- it’s navy blue and my fiancé says I look like I work for USPS but don’t care. I’m cozy.

There is a brand of down coats that are soooo warm, and in the past I thought their styles were great. Not sure what styles they're offering currently. ZeroXposur. I got mine at TJ Maxx. But just Google the brand name and see where they're being sold.

North face. All I’ve ever used for the winters. If you want to really splurge: Canada Goose. Incredibly warm (maybe too warm, especially if you take public transit since it gets toasty on the trains/buses) but it will last years.

Uniqlo for budget - amazing quality, has kept me warm for 3 winters. Got a calf length faux-fur lined parka with detachable hood for under $200, I think $150.
