Choosing garments for a busy on-the-go lifestyle can be challenging.

It should also provide enough coverage in a fitted fashion without being overly constricting.

Read on to learn our pros, cons, and overall thoughts on each of the jackets we tested.
This garment has a glossy sheen that makes it look almost leather-like, and it’s quite versatile.
Alexa Mellardo
It’s not overly bulky, and it offers plenty of room for layers.
But it’s a great “city jacket,” not designed for extreme cold.
Vuori offers this jacket in sizes that range from XXS to XXL.
I can still fit a sweatshirt or thick sweater underneath it without feeling too constricted.
It’s filled with 650 grams of Responsibly Sourced Down, which makes the jacket warm and toasty.
Rather than having ribbed cuffs, the sleeves have a zipper that allows them to open wider.

Luckily, this jacket is machine washable and simple to spot-clean.
