Lightweight padded jacket

Good for: Cooler weather and everyday commuting

Windcheater

Hooded casual jacket

Keep in mind: A hood does not guarantee warmth

5 things to check before buying

1. Choose the right jacket type

Fleece jackets work well for mild winters and layering. Padded jackets can provide more insulation, while windcheaters primarily help block wind. Warmth depends on the actual construction and materials.

2. Check the fabric and insulation

Look for details about the outer fabric, lining and filling. Polyester is common in affordable jackets, but two polyester jackets can offer very different levels of warmth.

3. Pay attention to fit

A winter jacket should allow comfortable movement and enough room for a sweater underneath. Compare your measurements with the seller's size chart instead of relying only on S, M or L.

4. Look for practical features

Useful features include secure zippers, adjustable cuffs, pockets, a comfortable collar and a hood. Consider which features you actually need for your climate.

5. Check the total price

A jacket advertised below ₹1,500 may cost more after delivery charges. Also check return eligibility, size exchanges and any conditions attached to discounts.
