Express Knit Military Jacket

Express’ Knit Military Jacket will have you looking like you’re ready to take orders from General Patreus in no time. Of course, you can wear this without fear of a bomb going off in your face or having a team of religious zealots shooting at you. At least that’s the hope.

(Not sure on that last one, maybe you should avoid wearing this to church.)

For this number from Express, you get a cotton/synthetic fiber that is entirely machine washable, which is good news for those of you who look like Fat Guy in a Little Coat after each wash. The stand-up double snap collar provides a super-cool look, which, let’s face it, has been awesome since Elvis was around. With that, the zipper pockets on side and the chest patch pockets over your man-tennaes, this little number promises to keep you warm in the bitter cold and comfortable in that 32-60-degree window most of us get during the fall.

Aether Space Hoodie

Aether Space Hoodie, all menacing-looking, where were you during the 2010 Liberty Bowl? This jacket would have come in handy as the winds picked up and the temperatures plummeted. (Whoever thought it never got cold in the South can kiss halftime attraction Eddie Money’s ass.)

The Aether Space Hoodie looks fantastic and is a highly functional piece to protect you from the elements. Boasting ultra fine ripstop poly fabric and PrimaLoft fill, we may not know a heck of a lot about what that is, but we’re pretty sure it rocks.

The hoodie comes equipped with front handwarmer pockets and a Riri Zipper that promises not to get stuck and slice your hands open as the cold seeps in. The jacket, which you can probably find for around three bills, is wind-and-water resistant in case you feel the need to go all George Bailey on everyone and jump off the Bedford Falls Bridge this holiday season, and the interior channel quilting delivers a clean surface look that is always fashionable even as hypothermia sets in.

John Varvatos Zip Collar Jacket

The John Varvatos Zip Collar Jacket is a unique combination of water protection, comfort and fashion, all rolled into a nice package with a pop-out hood that hides while you’re not wearing it, and guards you from the elements when Mother Nature decides to open a can of ass-beat on you. Of course, you’ve got to ask yourself whether a retail price of $698 is actually worth avoiding a few raindrops.

Personally, I’ve never minded getting wet that much, but with its 100% cotton interiors, this does make for a tempting little number when the cooler weather hits, or you simply want to deploy the hood and stand outside your ex-girlfriend’s house to put a good scare in her. Just kidding. It does sort of look menacingly fashionable, though, don’t you think?
